If the ideas below don't help can you try an upgrade? there are a few
fixes in 3.2 and 3.3 related to that directive.

The one without a password is being opened by OpenSSL directly.

The one with pssword is being opened in Squid oeprating context, which
should be root, but may also be the low-privilege proxy user at the time
the script is run.

So you need the key file to be readable by whichever of those privilege
contexts Squid is using at the time. (Sorry I can't be more precise, I'm
not sure myself which is used in 3.1).

If you have SELinux or AppArmour they may also be interferring with the
priviledged access.

The script itself needs either executable permissions set, or squid.conf
containing the full shell interpreter path as well as the script path.
 ie. "sslpassword_program /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/pass.sh"

The error message says fopen() command is not permitted for whichever
user account is trying to access the .key file.
 It's not clear if that is fopen() of the .key file, or fopen() of the
pass.sh file before running it.

The way you describe the issues below hint to me that it is the
permission to access the script which is breaking things.


Also, those old Squid had some issues with processing errno at the wrong
times. So there is a small but non-zero chance that the error is
actually something else. :-(

FYI: That test only works if your filesystem has been configured to
record access times. Using such a setup with Squid will cause major
slowdown as cache related files and logs get accessed *a lot*. So is
typically disabled via fstab "noatime" settings if anyone with expertise
has tuned the proxy machine before you.

This kind of implies the file permission problem is for Squid to open
the script "file" before running whats inside.

Check /usr/local/bin/pass.sh ownership, executable rights, and
SELinux/AppArmour permissions (whichever is present on that achine).
