    GUI will display key size as zero if the key is encrypted.

     

     

    Hope this helps.

    Yes Nitass agreed , once I verify SSL certificates and keys from the command line I got

     

    unable to load Private Key

    to avoid this created new profile with same key/certi & maped with with VS & then it worked...

     

    thanks...
