Hi everybody,

I try to set up OpenCA, but I unfortunately fail before I actually started ;o)
After I firstly stumbled over the "req -subj" syndrom, I got only a little 
farther with openssl-0.9.7 RPMs from ftp.openca.org.
CA Certificate Request generation with a previously created key still fails.
Apache's error log tells me:

--------------- snip ------------------
Using configuration from /usr/local/OpenCA/conf/openssl/openssl.cnf
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.

I had some looks at the code (OpenCA:: perl module, openssl 's req.c and 
OpenCa's ca stuff) but I cannot get a clue out of it.
Is there maybe something wrong with the OpenCA provided openssl configuration 
for the CA?

I don't think that I made greater modifications to that.

Full of despair - please help!!!!    ;o)

Regards,

Harry.
