There is not the file request.pem you want to sign. That's why you get
the error. You need to generate a certificate request (a user
certificate request, I guess) using the command grid-cert-request as a
normal user who wants a certificate. The copy the request
$HOME/.globus/usercert_request.pem to a different directory accessible
by an owner of your Globus Certifcate Authority (globus or root). Then
use 'grid-ca-sign' to sign the request pointing it out (the option -in)
where it has been copied to.

Hi Kaasim,
There is only one place in GT 5 (grid-ca-sign) where the output
can be generated:
if test ! -r ${INPUT_REQ_FILE}; then
echo ""
echo "ERROR: The file: ${INPUT_REQ_FILE} is not readable"
echo ""
exit 1
fi
Please, can you show output from the command ls -l, after you run
the command
# grid-ca-sign -in request.pem -out signed.pem

Hi all
I am new to Globus and installing it for academic purposes.
I am following globus 4.0 quick start (
_*http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/4.0/admin/docbook/quickstart.html#q-vo
*_)
GT version: GT 5
OS : Ubuntu 10.04
Everything goes fine until i gave the following command
_*|grid-ca-sign -in request.pem -out signed.pem|*_
_ERROR: The file: request.pem is not readable_
I have checked all the permissions, they are rite, further i
tried to run this command as root, but still the same error.
Please Help.
