Hello,

I have installed openCA on my machine and now it's the time to install two
subCAs. For the time being, I will install both rootCA and two subCAs on
the same machine  (now for testing) while I will be installing each on
different machine later on. What I did to issue subCAs are as below:

I went to "https://subca.localhost/pki"; and then logged in. I went to
"Generate New CA Secret keys" and fulfil the form. Next I went to "Generate
new CA certificate request (use generated secret key)" option and fulfill
the fields as well. Later on, I chose "Export CA certificate request" to
export my request.

The request was successfully generated and located in "/tmp/openca_local".
Next I did as follows:

cp /tmp/openca_local
tar xvf openca_local
cat careq.pem

and then copy the content into a new file called: "subca.pem"

Having done that, I went to "https://rca.loalhost/pki/pub"; and logged in.
>From there, I went to "Request a Certificate" option, I went to "Server
Certificate Request" and I chose that pem file (subca.pem) and fulfil the
rest of fields.

Now when I went to "https://rca.localhost/pki/"; and go to "CA
Operations/Certification Request/New" to issue the certificate, there is no
certificate in the list to select and issue. As far as I know, the request
has to be shown up there to move on and issue. I've got no idea why it does
not there.

Any idea where is the problem? And what shall I do to solve the problem?

Looking forward for your comments and suggestions. Please let me know if
there are some ambiguous parts or you need more explanation.

Thanks
