Is it possible that the new OpenSSL dropped support for your key encryption? Can you paste just the first 3 lines of your private key file, with the BEGIN, Proc-Type and DEK-Info lines? (Warning, I do not know if this will leak sensitive info, if you are unsure, do not paste it). Also can you try generating a new key and see if that is able to be used?
