I tried now the newest SNAP (20010619) and things become even more worse. Now it's no
more possible to generate a new secret key. The WWW log looks like that:

-------------------------------------snip---------------------------

Generating RSA private key, 2048 bit long modulus
....................+++
......+++
unable to write 'random state'
e is 65537 (0x10001)
Enter pass phrase for /usr/local/OpenCA/private/cakey.pem:
User interface error
4763:error:0906906F:PEM routines:PEM_ASN1_write_bio:read key:pem_lib.c:366:

-----------------------------------snap---------------------------------

and the browser shows:

-----------------------------------snip---------------------------------
Following you can find the result of the generation process. genSKey

     ERROR: 
       
------------------------------------snap---------------------------------

Older openssl SNAPS are not aviable. What to do now for starting testing 
openca v 0.8 ? Is it possible, to provide a set of patches for openssl which 
will work with openca-0.8 ? Or do you have a working SNAP of openssl ?

My first trials where made on a SuSE 7.1 System. But after updating to SuSE 7.2
there was no difference. Perl version on both installations is 5.6.0 and TRISTateCGI 
is 
version 1.5.4.
Installing TRISTateCGI 1.5.3 on the same openca-0.8-SNAP gives the same failure.
