2. Batch Revocation
When running the batch process to revoke certificates I seem to get caught in
an indefinite loop. (due to #1 this is with --enable-db) I think that the same
record is being returned from the database to the while($request = $db->getNextItem
... loop in [openca]/lib/cmds/bpRevokeCerticate
I looked into bpRevokeCertificate and wondering how this script has ever worked. I commited a first patch to avoid the indefinite loop. It was not a problem of DB or DBI. I simply loaded at every time the first CRR with the state APPROVED in the database. This is ok if I can handle every CRR with this function but if one approved CRR is not ready for automatic handling then the function never finishs.

This script also seems to have problems verifying the roles of the certificate
being revoked and the role of the CRR signer if I make it skip that check.
Which checks do you exactly deactivated?

Do you understand the meaning of the fields in the HTML-form? Sorry for this question but sometimes the forms (which I create) are not really intuitive. The operator's role must be the role of the operator who approve the request with it's signature (required) and the revoked certificate's role should self-explanatory.

Best regards,

Michael
