I've encountered following problem in OpenSSL 0.9.8d on Linux platform: When partition where database of my CA resides is full, Openssl ca command fails without reporting cause of problem.
Output looks like: ==================== openssl ca -config /var/www/openssl-ca//rsa/ca.conf -notext -batch -startdate 061225090853Z -days 365 -in /tmp/wwwreq1533.1167038595.req -out /tmp/wwwreq15 Using configuration from /var/www/openssl-ca//rsa/ca.conf Check that the request matches the signature Signature ok The Subject's Distinguished Name is as follows organizationalUnitName:PRINTABLE:'OpenSSL team' localityName :PRINTABLE:'Moscow' commonName :PRINTABLE:'lynx.lan.cryptocom.ru' emailAddress :IA5STRING:'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' organizationName :PRINTABLE:'Cryptocom' countryName :PRINTABLE:'RU' Certificate is to be certified until Dec 25 09:23:16 2007 GMT (365 days) Write out database with 1 new entries ====================== At this place CA command exits with exit code 01 but without any explanation of the cause of problem. Files index.txt.old and index.txt.new are left in the ca directory. I haven't yet traced problem down to exact source code line. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
