HI, I am facing issue while trying to create the SSL client key and certificate. it giving me the following error:

 

The error is thrown while attempting to create the key/certificate,

mgmt.shared.file_transfer.uploads.upload_file(p_cert)
 
key_sourcepath = 'file:/var/config/rest/downloads/{0}'.format(key_name)
key_obj = mgmt.tm.sys.file.ssl_keys.ssl_key.create_key(name=key_name,partition=partition, sourcePath=key_sourcepath)
key_obj.update()
 
cert_sourcepath = 'file:/var/config/rest/downloads/{0}'.format(certificate_name)
cert_obj = mgmt.tm.sys.file.ssl_certs.ssl_cert.create(name=certificate_name, partition=partition, sourcePath=cert_sourcepath)
cert_obj.update()
