First i had set the environment varaiable for openssl.conf
set OPENSSL_CONF=c:/program%20files/openssl/openssl.cnf // or what erver the location for openssl.conf
Then run gain the command,
openssl req -new -key privateKey.pem -out request.pem
// keep in mind i already generated the
// private key using command openssl genrsa -out privateKey.pem 1024
It asks for a couple of quesitions and then generate the certificate at the folder location.
