Hi before few days I am able to generate vault.key and vault.crt by using below command  
openssl req -config ssl.conf -x509 -days 3650 -batch -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout vault.key -out vault.crt

Now with same command I am getting error like this

Hi @vijendra  
Please check directory permissions. It seems like your user don’t have permissions to write in a directory.  
Also there might be the file with the same name but with different permissions so you can’t overwrite it

@vijendra As I can see the directory belongs to user root but you are trying to generate cert under your user.  
Also the error says that there is no param in config file.
