This is my verifiable-credential.json:
{ "@context": [ "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/v1", "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1", "https://w3id.org/blockcerts/v3" ], "id": "urn:uuid:bbba8553-8ec1-445f-82c9-a57251dd731c", "type": [ "VerifiableCredential", "BlockcertsCredential" ], "issuer": "did:example:23adb1f712ebc6f1c276eba4dfa", "issuanceDate": "2022-01-01T19:33:24Z", "credentialSubject": { "id": "did:example:ebfeb1f712ebc6f1c276e12ec21", "alumniOf": { "id": "did:example:c276e12ec21ebfeb1f712ebc6f1" } } }

I am not sure if I am supposed to change anything here, but when I try to run cert-issuer -c /etc/cert-issuer/conf.ini --verification_method "did:example:23adb1f712ebc6f1c276eba4dfa", I get the following error:

Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

hmm, I think it could be related to the fact that you are using the examples context: https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1 and that it's not "preloaded" to jsonld. To make sure, try to remove this context from the list, you should get a different error on alumniOf.

If that's the case, and you really want to use the examples context, there 2 ways you can preload the context.

Either in conf.ini:

context_urls=[https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1]
context_file_paths=[your-path-to-the-local-context-file]

Tip: you can do something like curl -L https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1 >> your-path-to-the-local-context-file to quickly store the file locally.

Or with the CLI:

python -m cert_issuer -c conf.ini --context_urls https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1 --context_file_paths your-path-to-the-local-context-file

Hi! Thank you for your quick reply.
If I remove the line https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1 from verifiable-credential.json, I get this response:

If I don't remove the line from the file, I get the same error even after downloading the context file and adding the lines you mentioned in conf.ini

You should look at the reason why the Error is raised from there:

 File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/cert_issuer/blockchain_handlers/bitcoin/signer.py", line 35, in sign_transaction
    raise UnableToSignTxError('Unable to sign transaction')

Reasons could be different, but the low hanging one could be: is your wallet funded?

I have tried to debug it but not sure what else can I do. There is enough balance in the wallet yup. I am not sure if there is a problem with the docker container or if there is some issue with the default files given. Apologies, I am new to blockchain so any advice would be helpful. Also if you would like, all I did was follow the steps in the Readme of cert-issuer while choosing 'sample unsigned certificate' for the issuing certificate,

is your private key correctly defined in pk_issuer.txt?
It should be in the WIF format: https://github.com/blockchain-certificates/did-generator/blob/master/key-management/generateKeyPair.ts#L75

you @context property needs to be an object, not an array:

{
"@context": {
"@Version": 1.1,
