Unable to generate esp_secure_cert.bin (MEGH-5812)

[yatendra98]

Answers checklist.

• I have read the Rainmaker documentation and the issue is not addressed there.
• I have updated my IDF branch (release/vX.Y) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there. This is not applicable if you are using Rainmaker with Arduino.
• I have searched the Rainmaker forum and issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.

General issue report

I've followed these steps:
$ export ESP_SECURE_CERT_PATH=/path/to/esp_secure_cert_mgr
$ esp-matter-mfg-tool -v 0x131B -p 0x2 -cd $RMAKER_PATH/examples/matter/mfg/cd_131B_0002.der --csv $RMAKER_PATH/examples/matter/mfg/keys.csv --mcsv $RMAKER_PATH/examples/matter/mfg/master.csv

I'm able to generate the partition.bin, but not able to generate esp_secure_cert.bin file in the out folder.

@yatendra98 esp_secure_cert.bin is not required for test set up.

You can go ahead with just flashing the factory_partiton by
esptool.py write_flash 0x3e0000 out/131b_2/<node-id>/<node-id>-partition.bin

@sayondeep I did the same and flash the code by following next steps but couldn't able to see any advertisement packet BLE/AP in Rainmaker App. I used the BLE sniffer as well to put a filter of MAC Id but couldn't see any packets.
Hence thought of whether there is any dependency of esp_secure_cert.bin
Attaching here the screenshot of logs.

@yatendra98
You are using matter+rainmaker example where the provisioning is taken care in the commissioning step of Matter.
You can follow the steps here to continue with the example.
You can use esp rainmaker app for commissioning and control.

If you want to try out rainmaker only examples, you can find them here. EXCEPT the examples inside matter directory.

Closing this as suitable answer has been provided. Moreover, just to add, the secure cert partition is generated and flashed as part of Matter claiming steps mentioned here
