i believe you're right: the pathlen isnt the problem. (i just read http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/x509v3_config.html#Basic_Constraints_ again.) > I used openssl with the intermediate CA to sign a separate cert, which > had a AKID keyid but no issuer, and that chain recongizes fine. > > Could the problem be the fact that yahoo.pem has an AKID keyid AND > issuer? (onr or the other is sufficient, but I could find nothing that > said that both were illegal). using -verbose and -issuer_checks showed, along with error 29: error 31 at 0 depth lookup:authority and issuer serial number mismatch so i compared the serial numbers and the key id's. they looked ok to me. so at this point, i dont have any ideas. > > > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-openssl-us...@openssl.org > [mailto:owner-openssl-us...@openssl.org] On Behalf Of Giang Nguyen > Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 3:49 PM > To: openssl-users@openssl.org > Subject: RE: Can't recognize intermediate CA > > > the cacert has pathlen:1 in its "X509v3 Basic Constraints" > > ---------------------------------------- >> Subject: Can't recognize intermediate CA >> Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2009 15:00:47 -0700 >> From: rene.hol...@watchguard.com >> To: openssl-users@openssl.org >> >> I'm tearing my hair out trying to get an intermediate CA to be >> recognized. >> >> I have cacert.pem signing intcert.pem signing (well, resigning), >> yahoo.pem >> >> Openssl verify verifiies intcert.pem against cacert.pem, but won't >> verify yahoo.pem against intcert.pem. >> >> Subject/issuer match.
