Hi Piotr,
Using openca latest from cvs on debian sarge i386, installed without major problems (all minor already discussed).
Please never delete this line.
In first step in Phase II (Create new request - https://(myhostname)/cgi-bin/ca/ca?cmd=setupInitialCert&dest=basic_csr)
Should I reinstall ASN1::Convert or try something else?
No, this is a configuration issue.
Note1: When I put 192.168.0.32 in IP address field, form was rejected with message that 15 characters are required in IP address.
This is a bug. The configurations ca.conf and pub.conf in etc/servers/ contain options which define the minimum length of the data in a field. If you search for DN_TYPE_*_SUBJECTALTNAME or simply for a "15" then you will find the places with the wrong length. The correct length is 7. I fixed it in CVS.
Note2: I guess that some at least one link or button should be available to proceed to default next step for CA initialization. Or at lease for proceed to initialization first phase screen on which phase 1 steps are listed - for now I need to manually navigate to Initialization > 1st Phase and then select. I think absence of this button can make people proceed to the Phase II instead of next step in phase I. Yes, this phase II step will be probably impossible complete, however.. :)
This is really problematical for us. We use normal standard functions for the intialization only. You can theoretically ignore Phase II and III completely if you want and perform the steps via the normal interfaces. So this is only a help to start more quickly and clean. Perhaps we can change this in the future but today this is nearly impossible. Sorry :(
from original. Only one polish letter was used on request creating page, and it as in form fieldname "Unit" which is in PL "Dzia\??", however I don't think this matters.
The only result should be some unreadable stuff in the certificate.
PS2. Where can I find some error descriptions? Are they available?
Yes, we collect them in our FAQ. Especially your problem is described there ;) Your entered data is correct.
Error 7211021 General error. Cannot create request!
(OpenCA::REQ->new: unable to create new request, background returns error 7712071: OpenCA::OpenSSL->genReq: Cannot execute command (7777067). problems making Certificate Request 4433:error:0D07A097:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_mbstring_copy:string too long:a_mbstr.c:154:maxsize=2 error in req ).
Please check your configuration ca.conf, public.conf and config.xml. It looks like you entered somewhere more than three characters for the country. Usually the people entering "com" or "Poland" as the CA country but the ISO country code is required at this position. I added a new comment in config.xml to make it more clear.
