Okay, this is for all having the same problem...
Obviously OpenSSL will only work using an empty index.txt. What you have to
do is
- concatenate the content of index.txt with YOUR database file (e. g.
database.txt). So database.txt will contain the information index.txt should
originally keep.
- remove the old index.txt
- create a new (empty) index.txt with "touch index.txt"
It's just a quick an dirty work-around. But it works ;-)
