Description Bob Lord 2008-04-16 16:41:48 UTC
Description of problem:
I'm trying to recreate a CA instance on my desktop.  I've done it successfully
many times, but now I'm getting an HTTP 500 error.  I'm able to get to the
wizard screen called "Requests and Certificates", but when I hit "Next" it dies.
 I'll attach some log output.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pki-ca-1.0.0-1.fc8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the CA
2. Go through install wizard
3. At the "Requests and Certificates" page, click Next.
  
Actual results:
Java errors

Expected results:
I should be landing on the next page of the wizard.

In case others see this problem, there currently is a workaround:

1. After observing the crash, restart the server:
/etc/init.d/pki-ca restart
2. Retry the wizard from the very beginning using the URL shown on the screen
when originally installing the instance.
If the wizard's pin is needed it can be found here:
/var/lib/pki-ca/alias/CS.cfg
Look for the entry:

preop.pin=XXXXXXXXX

3. This time the wizard should complete successfully and the server should work
just fine.
