PHP to C# Encrypted message - trouble decrypting

I've got a private key stored on my PHP server. A message is encrypted using the private key on the PHP server. My C# code is meant to receive the ciphertext from PHP's response and decrypt it with the public key. However, I keep running into errors such as

Cryptography.CryptoThrowHelper.WindowsCryptographicException: 'Key does not exist.'

My PHP code is as follows:

    $pkey = openssl_pkey_get_private("file://pkey");
    openssl_private_encrypt($text, $ciphertext, $pkey, OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING);
    echo base64_encode($ciphertext);

My C# code includes an implementation of the function mentioned in this thread, where the answer has a comment linking to Github. A snippet is below:

  string pubkey = "M...Q==";
  RSA rsa = CreateRsaProviderFromPublicKey(pubkey);
  byte[] bytes = Convert.FromBase64String(dataEncrypted);
  byte[] decryptedBytes = rsa.Decrypt(bytes, RSAEncryptionPadding.Pkcs1);
  return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(decryptedBytes);

The error occurs on the line where rsa.Decrypt is being called. I obtained the public key from the PHP function openssl_pkey_get_details, where I then stripped the ----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- header and footer and removed all spaces.

Edit 1: Perhaps I should post the code I used to make the private key, since that could be problematic:

$config = array(
  "digest_alg" => "sha512",
  "private_key_bits" => 4096,
  "private_key_type" => OPENSSL_KEYTYPE_RSA,
);
$res = openssl_pkey_new($config);

Edit 2: I tried using sha256 with 2048 bytes for a new key, it made no difference.

Let me please explain the complete workflow for RSA encryption with 3 small, simple programs. I'm running all programs in Online compiler so you can easily run the codes directly. The key pair is a 4096 bit long RSA one, the online generation will take some seconds and the encryption padding is OAEP for security reasons.

Security warning: all programs run without any exception handling and are for educational purpose only.

Step 1: Key generation

As the encryption is done with the public key of the recipient of the message the recipient has to generate the RSA key pair. As per your definition the PHP-side is the sender and the C#-side is the recipient let's generate the key pair in C#.

The first code will generate a 4096 bit long RSA key pair in XML-encoding - that's the default output encoding of C#:

Step 2: RSA encryption on PHP-side with public key

As we are using the PHP-built-in OpenSSL-engine we need to convert the XML-encoded public key to a PEM encoding first. As it is the public key I'm using an online service for this task - there are many other options but for the sake of demonstration it's okay. Go to https://superdry.apphb.com/tools/online-rsa-key-converter and copy/paste the publicKeyXML to the first inputbox and press the button "Convert". In the outputbox below you will find this Public key:

Copy and paste your public key in the second program (function loadRsaPublicKeyPem), let it run and encrypt the data, giving this Base64 encoded output:

RSA 2048 encryption OAEP-padding string
plaintext: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog

* * * encrypt the plaintext with the RSA public key * * *

Step 3: RSA decryption on C#-side with Private key

Copy and paste your private key in the third program (function loadRsaPrivateKeyXml), copy and paste the ciphertextBase64 and run the program, you will get this output:

Apparently C# cannot decrypt using a public key, at least with the libraries I'm using. So the solution is to give the C# code the private key and decrypt all messages from the PHP server with the public key.

It's my understanding that this won't be a security issue, despite the fact that the "private" key is being sent into the wild, because both keys are designed for this exact purpose.
