Using softHSM : why is my orderer still looking for private key on Orderer.General.TLS.Privatekey path?

Question

I got some error when I tried to use softHSM to store private keys.

Please tell me what's the problem

1. Hyperledger Fabric Version : v2.3
2. Orderer Binary :

git clone -b release-2.3 https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric.git
GO_TAGS=pkcs11 make orderer

3. .yaml files :

fabric-ca-client-config.yaml, fabric-ca-server-config.yaml

bccsp:
    default: PKCS11
    pkcs11:
        Library: /usr/local/lib/softhsm/libsofthsm2.so
        Pin: "123"
        Label: fabric
        hash: SHA2
        security: 256
        Immutable: false

core.yaml, orderer.yaml

    BCCSP:
        Default: "PKCS11"
        # Settings for the SW crypto provider (i.e. when DEFAULT: SW)
        SW:
            # TODO: The default Hash and Security level needs refactoring to be
            # fully configurable. Changing these defaults requires coordination
            # SHA2 is hardcoded in several places, not only BCCSP
