Hi Ryan, about the rpm registration error - ignore it. Sometimes the installer tries to register the package on the RPM system although it is not really supported. I hope that the new versions of the installer for the openca-1.1.0 will behave better.
For updating the apache stuff, it is difficult to provide a solution because different distributions and operating systems (linux, bsd, opensolaris, etc.) all use different approaches and directory structure. For some example configuration files that can be added to the http.d/ directory on your system, you can download the source package and look at the contrib/apache/ directory. If anybody wants to contribute to write some documentation or even a page for the WiKi that would help first-installers.. please contact me. We need collaborators to make things better for the next releases. Cheers, Max On 01/19/2010 02:28 PM, Kinateder, Ryan wrote:
Does anybody have a good "getting started" resource for the latest version of openca (1.0.2). I've used the binary installations for Cent 4.7, and get an rpm registration error, and it appears there are some necessary apache httpd.conf updates that need to be made. I have not been able get the web interface working. There doesn't seem to be any step by step instructions in the html documentation. I've tried the "cookbook" instructions located on the mailing list but to no avail, and am wondering if the cookbook is out of date (created in 2004) Any suggestions? Are there instructions on any post steps after using the binary package files? Are any of the OS's listed in the download section easier than the others? Is it recommended to use the binary installers or install from source? I'm just trying to get something simple up and running to see if I want to use this for our development environment. Thanks. Ryan
