Hello Massimiliano, thanks for your hint.
The package of openca_base-1.2.0 does not provide an init script to be installed in /etc/init.d. Not during the triplet configure, make, make install_* In meanwhile i think i found how to start the server part. In /etc/openca there is a script openca_start. So i tried it: ------------------------ cut ----------------------- openca openca # /etc/openca/openca_start Logging is not initialized. Configuration error: The loading of the command /usr/lib64/openca/cmds/pkcs10_req failed. Global symbol "$new_req" requires explicit package name at (eval 261) line 406, <HANDLE> chunk 1. Compilation failed in require at ./openca_start line 65. ------------------------ cut ----------------------- Hmpf. Next perl script problem. The variable "new_req" (data type OpenCA::REQ) seems to be used globally. Or some code in pkcs10_req is missing. A quick search fount to be allocated in these scripts - basic_csr - authenticated_csr - advanced_csr I am not a perl master, so if someone could give me a hint to fix this.
