[xmlsec] problems with dsig2 and dsig3 examples

[Devin Heitmueller]

I am having problems getting the example code that comes with
xmlsec-0.0.9 working.

I have a Mandrake 8.2 system, and I have compiled libxml2-2.4.24 and
xslt-1.0.20 from source.  They have been installed in /usr/lib (by
modifying the --prefix in configure).

The dsig1 example appears to work fine.  However, when I run the dsig2
example, I get the following output:


[root at devin dsig2]# ./dsig2 dsakey.pem test.tmpl 
xmlSecTransformStateParseUri (transforms.c:1157): error 4: xml operation
failed : xmlXPtrEval(xpointer(id('SomeData'))) 
xmlSecTransformStateCreate (transforms.c:881): error 2: xmlsec operation
failed : xmlSecTransformStateParseUri(#xpointer(id('SomeData'))) 
xmlSecReferenceRead (xmldsig.c:1550): error 2: xmlsec operation failed :
xmlSecTransformStateCreate 
xmlSecSignedInfoRead (xmldsig.c:1424): error 2: xmlsec operation failed
: xmlSecReferenceRead - -1 
xmlSecSignatureRead (xmldsig.c:1124): error 2: xmlsec operation failed :
xmlSecSignedInfoRead - -1 
xmlSecDSigGenerate (xmldsig.c:792): error 2: xmlsec operation failed :
xmlSecSignatureRead - -1 
Error: signature failed

I get the exact same error when I run "./dsig3 test.xml"

Any ideas?

On a sidenote, on line 34 of dsig2.c, argc should be 3, and on line 32
of dsig3.c, argc should be 2.  In both cases, the check is for one few
too arguments.

Thanks,
