Walkthrough

SSL private-key, certificate, and certificate-chain failure paths now conditionally report OpenSSL errors when ACE debugging is enabled. Private-key verification uses an explicit failure branch while preserving existing return values and cleanup.

Poem

I’m a rabbit with a key,
Watching SSL errors flee.
Certificates speak clear,
OpenSSL logs appear.
Failures keep their proper way—
Debugging helps them shine today.
