[openssl-users] Session params output fails via cron

[Neil Craig]

Hi all

Does anyone know why openssl (silently) fails to write session data to a file when run from cron? (It works fine running manually) via e.g.: /path/to/openssl s_client -connect <host>:443 -servername <hostname> -tls1_3 –sess_out

Running the same command but with –tls1_2 works fine from cron. This feels like it might be a bug? Or am I missing something? There’s nothing obvious in the output that suggests failure.

Any help would be much appreciated, happy to provide more info and/or do more testing.

Cheers
