Thanks. That got me a little farther:
# pki -U https://mydomain.example.xyz:8373 ca-cert-request-submit --profile caManualRenewal --serial 0x2 --renewal
WARNING: UNTRUSTED ISSUER encountered on 'CN=mydomain.example.xyz,OU=my-instance,O=example.xyz' indicates a non-trusted CA cert 'CN=CA
Signing Certificate,OU=my-instance,O=example.xyz'
Import CA certificate (Y/n)?
“CA Signing Certificate” is the base signing certificate (serial number 0x1). Should the WARNING and prompt about importing it (to where?) be expected? I’m running
the commands locally on the CA server, FWIW.
Your command example includes “-d ~/.dogtag/subca1”. The man page says –d is for the client security database location. I just have the default nssdb and my instance
directory under ~/.dogtag, so I’m guessing the default nssdb is what I need?
# ls -l ~/.dogtag
total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 51 Mar 22 2017 nssdb
drwxrwxr-x. 3 root root 4096 Oct 6 2017 my-instance

Subject: Re: [Pki-users] Problem Renewing Server Certificates
Try adding a -U option with the CA URL, like for example:
pki -v -U https://ca1.example.test:8443/ca -d ~/.dogtag/subca1 ca-cert-request-submit --profile caManualRenewal --serial 0x3f0 --renewal
I added a -d option to point to a NSS db that already trust the issuer of the SSL certificate presented in the HTTPS connection.
A request should be created and in pending state, until an agent approves it.
( use a profile with agent authentication for automatic issuance, user with SSL client auth should have automatic renewal/cert issuance)
Thanks,
M.

I installed PKI-CA two years ago on a Redhat 7 server. I used it to create certificates for an application and have not needed it since. Now the PKI server certificates are about to expire, I’m trying to renew them using the directions at https://www.dogtagpki.org/wiki/System_Certificate_Renewal . I am getting an error when I try to submit the renewal request. The error seems to be that it can’t find /pki/rest/info.

Listing the certificates works. We do not use the default instance of pki-tomcat.

But the renewal request gives a Not Found error:
# pki -p 8370 ca-cert-request-submit --profile caManualRenewal --serial 0x2 --renewal
PKIException: Not Found
Adding –v shows an error on the HTTP GET of /pki/rest/info. I don’t see that directory structure anywhere on the server. Am I missing something in the configuration, or is there another package I need to install? Do I have to point the command to our non-default instance, and if so, how do I do that?
# pki -v -p 8370 ca-cert-request-submit --profile caManualRenewal --serial 0x2 --renewal
