I have a problem with user-downloading the issued certificate. When I fill
the form specifying the serial number of the certificate, it says "the
private key for this certificate is not found in the database".

- I'm using Netscape 4.79 on Linux RedHat 7.3 (and also tried Netscape 4.77
on Irix 6.5 with the same effect)

- I issued "basic request". The certificate was approved and created
correctly, I imported it into RA server and can see it there.

- I'm trying to download the certificate from the same machine and browser
which I used to issue the request.

- The openca version is 0.9.1-RC7
If you use "basic request" then the private key is generated on the server. So your browser doesn't have the private key. You must download a PKCS#12-file from the CA- or RA-interface. The passpharse is the PIN which you entered during the generation of the request. You can import this PKCS#12-file into your browser. That's all.

Please take in mind that you must set the correct trust-options to the CA-certificate before you can use your user-certificate.

- Actually I had the same problem with RC6, so I waited for RC7 to see if
it will be fixed.
Ok, that was my mistake, I introduced some last minute bugs into the RC6.
