At what point in the process are your mails getting sent, Til? Is it as
a part of the dataexchange process?
With additional troubleshooting, I also see the following noteworthy
output.
When I follow the link in /ra-node:
Utilities-->E-Mail new users
I get:
Sending CRIN-Mail(s) ...
(Please wait until operation completes)
Sending the Certificate-Information-Mails ...
Didn't find new mails. No mails send!
Sending the PIN-Mails ...
Didn't find new mails. No mails send!
When I follow the link in /ra-node:
Utilities-->Send a CRIN-mail
You need to enter some additional parameters for the requested
functionality.
Please enter the number of a mail to send a special mail or enter
nothing to send all new mails.
(I enter nothing to send all)
I get:
Sending CRIN-Mail(s) ...
(Please wait until operation completes)
Sending the Certificate-Information-Mails ...
Didn't find new mails. No mails send!
Sending the PIN-Mails ...

functionality.

(I enter 8 because I see a message 8.msg in the directory
/usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/)
I get:
Sending CRIN-Mail(s) ...
(Please wait until operation completes)
Try to send CRIN-mail 8 ...FAILED.
Unkown error.
When I look in /usr/local/open[cr]a/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/
I see:
ls /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/
1.msg 2.msg 3.msg 4.msg 5.msg 6.msg 7.msg 8.msg mailcounter
cat /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/mailcounter
1
ls /usr/local/openra/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/
mailcounter serials.dmb
cat /usr/local/openra/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/mailcounter
1
Should the *.msg files in /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins be
showing up in /usr/local/openra/OpenCA/var/mail/crins ???
When I use the first link above (Utilities-->E-Mail new users) but doing
so from the /ca-node URL (vice the ra-node URL), I get the following:
Sending CRIN-Mail(s) ...
(Please wait until operation completes)
Sending the Certificate-Information-Mails ...
send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/default/1.msg successful

send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/3.msg successful
send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/4.msg successful
send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/5.msg successful
send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/6.msg successful
send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/7.msg successful
send mail /usr/local/openca/OpenCA/var/mail/crins/8.msg successful
and I also see postfix/sendmail getting invoked in the /var/log/messages
file, and I see the messages properly delivered to the users inboxes...
However...
Shouldn't the RA be sending these emails (not the CA)? After all, the
CA is supposedly off-line, right? And the RA would typically be
on-line? Is this the way OpenCA is designed to work (CA sending mail
vice RA) or have I mixed up my configuration somehow? And am I missing
the meaning of the config.xml option:
<option>
<name>send_mail_automatic</name>
<value>yes</value>
</option>
With this set as above, should the mails be sent automatically (without
having to follow the Utilities-->E-Mail new users link)?
BTW, this send command initially failed for me because the default
sendmail command in config.xml is:
<option>
<name>sendmail</name>
<value>/usr/lib/sendmail -n -t </value>
</option>
and postfix has no -n option. According to the man page, it is ignored,
but when I tried it, there were many failed attempts to invoke it with
-n and fatal errors logged in /var/log/message so I removed the -n and
then got the above behavior.
