Hi All,
I want to create my own mini-CA capable of signing certificate requests.
So I follow the below instructions given in ca commands:
Note: these examples assume that the ca directory structure is already
set up and the relevant files already exist. This usually involves
creating a CA certificate and private key with req, a serial number file
and an empty index file and placing them in the relevant directories.
To use the sample configuration file below the directories demoCA,
demoCA/private and demoCA/newcerts would be created. The CA certificate
would be copied to demoCA/cacert.pem and its private key to
demoCA/private/cakey.pem. A file demoCA/serial would be created
containing for example ``01'' and the empty index file demoCA/index.txt.
Sign a certificate request:
openssl ca -in req.pem -out newcert.pem
I've got the message : wrong number of fields line 1(looking for fields
6, got 1, " left)
I don't understand this behaviour.
PS : What demo/serial must contain(1), and demoCA/index.txt(2) ?
(1) : "01" or 01 ?
(2) : ?
Thanks for your reply.
