elftosb signing certificate location issue

[anooppk]

Hello,

    In my project, I am using elftosb and cst tool to create signed binary and I am trying to read the signing certificate from an external pen drive. if I give the whole path of the signing certificate as mentioned below, elftosb generating syntax error

command.db file

I am storing the certificate in external usb. SRK table file stored in the same directory of elftosb

error while running elftosb

Is mandatory to store the certificate in the same folder of elftosb?

Is there any way to give an absolute address in db  to locate the .pem file, because we want to read the certificate from an external USB.

Hi,
Thank you for your interest in NXP Semiconductor products and for the opportunity to serve you.
1) Is mandatory to store the certificate in the same folder of elftosb?
-- Yes, as the bd file provide the relative address instead of the absolute address for locating the pem file
Have a great day,
