X509 object has no attribute get_signature_algorithm

Asked by dranitou

Hi,

After having loaded a certificate, I'm trying to get the signature algorithm, as documented here : http://packages.python.org/pyOpenSSL/openssl-x509.html. But I get an AttributeError: 'X509' object has no attribute 'get_signature_algorithm'. I don't know what to do, as I can access all the others fields of the certificate.

Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks!

Make sure you have pyOpenSSL 0.13, the version in which this method was introduced (and the latest release).

Thanks, I didn't have the lates version!

 I just downloaded it, and when trying to build it on Ubuntu 12.04 with python setup.py build, I get this error :
OpenSSL/crypto/crypto.c:14:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
compilation failed.

Do you have any idea how to fix this?

You're missing the build dependencies. Try "apt-get build-dep python-openssl". Also, note that there are many, many, many helpful google hits for "fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory".
