It looks like the key could not be found. Try to look at the
code under debugger to make sure you use correct key name.
It is a little tricky with NSS but with openssl you can
put the key into xmlsec keymanager as long as you have
an EVP. You might need to write some code to load the correct
crypto engine though.
