Renew expired OCSP system certificates
by pki tech 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Hi all, Good day to you all. What is the process to renew all the four system certificates (SubsystemCert, ServerCert, ocspSigningCert and AuditsigningCert) when those existing certificates are currently expired. I cant access the pkiconsole also as the system is not up and running. I have used the certutil to generate the certificate requests and get it signed by the CA. But it didn't work as expected. I believe the procedure that i have followed to request generation or the signing profiles used for the generation, may have some issues. Cheers. Regards, Mark

base64 CMC Request format
by Elliott William C OSS sIT 13 Jul '16

13 Jul '16

Hi all, Can Dogtag (in this case v. 9.0.3-30.el6 ) be coerced into accepting base64-encoded CMC requests? Is there a parameter somewhere? Or would it require reprogramming? We have a (smart-)card management system (runs under Windows) which sends the requests and expects the responses to both be base64 encoded. Thanks and best regards, William Elliott s IT Solutions Open System Services

How to setup PKI Administrator user
by Jain, Mahendra 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

Hello All, When I install the Dogtag Certificate System, the installation creates default PKI Administrator user (caadmin). What is the procedure to setup additional PKI Administrator users so that they can also access agent interface?

Fedora 21 + Quickstart guide = non functional dogtag server

Hello, I'm trying to test DogTag server and I'm unable to get the web UI to function. I've installed a fresh fedora server and I'm following the instructions here <http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Quick_Start>. When I hit the url https://dogtag.test.org/ca, it redirects me back to root '/' and I get the error: *Mar 29, 2015 1:17:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve invokeSEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [jsp] in context with path [] threw exception [java.lang.NullPointerException] with root causejava.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.jsp.index_jsp._jspService(index_jsp.java:208) at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:70) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:727) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:432) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:395) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:339) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:727) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:497) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil$1.run(SecurityUtil.java:276) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil$1.run(SecurityUtil.java:273) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAsPrivileged(Subject.java:549) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil.execute(SecurityUtil.java:308) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil.doAsPrivilege(SecurityUtil.java:168) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:297) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.access$000(ApplicationFilterChain.java:55) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain$1.run(ApplicationFilterChain.java:191) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain$1.run(ApplicationFilterChain.java:187) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:186) at org.apache.tomcat.websocket.server.WsFilter.doFilter(WsFilter.java:52) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:497) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil$1.run(SecurityUtil.java:276) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil$1.run(SecurityUtil.java:273) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAsPrivileged(Subject.java:549) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil.execute(SecurityUtil.java:308) at org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil.doAsPrivilege(SecurityUtil.java:248) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:238) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.access$000(ApplicationFilterChain.java:55) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain$1.run(ApplicationFilterChain.java:191) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain$1.run(ApplicationFilterChain.java:187) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:186) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:221) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:122) at org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase.invoke(AuthenticatorBase.java:504) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:170) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:103) at org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve.invoke(AccessLogValve.java:950) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:116) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:421) at org.apache.coyote.http11.AbstractHttp11Processor.process(AbstractHttp11Processor.java:1074) at org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol$AbstractConnectionHandler.process(AbstractProtocol.java:611) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$SocketProcessor.run(JIoEndpoint.java:316) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1142) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:617) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.TaskThread$WrappingRunnable.run(TaskThread.java:61) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)* can anyone tell me what I did wrong? I doubt that the rpm is bad or the install guide is wrong so I suspect that it's user error. I get no errors at install time and I've attempted this about 4 times, always with the same result. WTF? --steve

Best, stable release of Dogtag?
by Steve Neuharth 28 Mar '15

28 Mar '15

Hello, My company is in need of an internal PKI and we're considering using Dogtag. I have tried installing version 10.2.0-5 on fedora 21, following the quick start guide, accepting the defaults and receive only nullPointerException when attempting to use the web UI. I understand that 10.x is alpha so should I be using version 9.x? We do have redhat licenses so I'd really prefer RHEL over fedora. So, what is the best production ready configuration for Dogtag? I just need a PKI that works, preferably with a REST api that can auto-sign certificates. thanks for your help --steve
