#827 Errors in EXAMPLES section of pkispawn man page
Closed: Fixed None Opened 10 years ago by mharmsen.

For a CA, the EXAMPLES section contains a 'myconfig.txt' file with the following contents:

[DEFAULT]
pki_admin_password=password123
pki_client_pkcs12_password=password123
pki_ds_password=password123

which appears to be missing the required parameter:

pki_security_domain_password=password123

Similarly, for a KRA, OCSP, or TKS, the EXAMPLES section contains a 'myconfig.txt' file with the following contents:

[DEFAULT]
pki_admin_password=password123
pki_client_pkcs12_password=password123
pki_ds_password=password123
pki_security_domain_password=password123

which appears to be missing the required parameter:

pki_client_database_password=password123

Additionally, for a TPS, the EXAMPLES section should contain a 'myconfig.txt' file with the following contents:

[DEFAULT]
pki_admin_password=password123
pki_client_database_password=password123
pki_client_pkcs12_password=password123
pki_ds_password=password123
pki_security_domain_password=password123
[TPS]
pki_enable_server_side_keygen=True
pki_authdb_basedn=dc=example,dc=com

although the 'pki_enable_server_side_keygen=True' is an optional parameter unless the user wants to utilize a KRA for server-side keygen.

This entire section should be reviewed and fixed to make certain that it provides correct EXAMPLES to end users of 'pkispawn'.


[06/04/2014] - Moving to Milestone 10.2.1 due to schedule restrictions.

Proposed Milestone: 10.2.3 (per CS Meeting of 09/17/2014)

man page (complete earlier if possible)

Per Dogtag 10.2.X meeting of 01/14/2015: Milestone 10.2 Backlog

Based on testing, the pki_security_domain_password is not required for CA. For clarity, the [DEFAULT] should be replaced with the actual subsystem to be installed (e.g. [CA]).

The missing pki_client_database_password was already fixed in a44ccf872262b1289cd2577a6ba55071066a5209.

TPS-related information will be added in ticket #1277.
