Pkcs11 No Slot With A Token Was Found
- I recommend reading my PKCS#11 Terminology blog before trying this. In this blog, there is a simple program that gets the information about the HSM slots using the standard PKCS#11 library functions. In the above program statements, it loads the cryptoki library DLL provided by the HSM/token vendors.
- There could be issues with PKCS#11 which requires debugging. To show debug info about Library, Slots, Token, and Mechanism, add showInfo=true in the SunPKCS11 provider configuration file, which you specified statically or dynamically as described in SunPKCS11 Configuration.
Name
pkcs11-tool - utility for managing and using PKCS #11 security tokens
Slots are the logical partitions in the cryptographic device. In case of HSMs, there could be hundreds or more slots are available while in the case of smart cards, there could be only one slot available. Token is a device where application stores the cryptographic objects and also perform cryptographic operations.
Synopsis
pkcs11-tool [OPTIONS]
Description
The pkcs11-tool utility is used to manage the data objects on smart cards and similar PKCS #11 security tokens. Users can list and read PINs, keysand certificates stored on the token. User PIN authentication is performed for those operations that require it.
Options
--login, -l

pin for token operations. WARNING: Be careful using this option as other users may be able to read the command line from the system orif it is embedded in a script.This option will also set the --login option.
