Hi,
already asked in the openssl mailing list, but just in case you already went through this...
I need a little help with Certificate Revocation Lists.
I did setup client certificates filtering with apache and it seem to work fine so far (used a tutorial on http://www.adone.info/?p=4, down right now).
I have a "CA" that is signing a "CA SSL".
Then, the "CA SSL" is signing the clients certificates.
Now, I am testing Certificate Revocation Lists, but apache keeps saying: "Invalid signature on CRL"
I used:
$ openssl ca -config openssl.conf -name CA_ssl_default -revoke cassl/$CLIENTNAME.pem
Using configuration from openssl.conf
Enter pass phrase for cassl/private/cassl.key:
Revoking Certificate 02.
Data Base Updated
$ openssl ca -config openssl.conf -name CA_ssl_default -gencrl -out cassl/crl.pem -crldays 365
Using configuration from openssl.conf
Enter pass phrase for /root/Certifs/cassl/private/cassl.key:
$ # cat cassl/crl.pem
-----BEGIN X509 CRL-----
MIIB...
...
...v40=
-----END X509 CRL-----
In apache logs, when the CRL file is activated in the conf:
[debug] ssl_engine_init.c(538): Configuring client authentication
[debug] ssl_engine_init.c(1113): CA certificate: /C=AA/ST=BB/L=CC/O=DD/CN=myhost.mydomain

[debug] ssl_engine_init.c(729): Configuring RSA server certificate
[debug] ssl_engine_init.c(768): Configuring RSA server private key
When I try to connect with a revoked (or unrevoked) certificate, I get:

Also, at one point, I got a "data too large":

I reduced my CA and CASSL keys from 2048 down to 1024... not sure if it helped, but I don't have this error anymore...
How can I check if the crl.pem file is ok?
$ openssl crl -in cassl/crl.pem -text
Certificate Revocation List (CRL):

-----END X509 CRL-----
I also tried all sorts of verify combos, but all fail:
$ openssl verify -verbose -config openssl.conf -purpose crlsign -crl_check cassl/crl.pem
usage: verify [-verbose] [-CApath path] [-CAfile file] [-purpose purpose] [-crl_check] [-engine e] cert1 cert2 ...
$ openssl verify -verbose -CApath cassl/ -purpose crlsign -crl_check cassl/crl.pem
unable to load certificate

$ openssl verify -verbose -CAfile cassl/cassl.pem -purpose crlsign -crl_check cassl/crl.pem
unable to load certificate
9606:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line:pem_lib.c:647:Expecting: TRUSTED CERTIFICATE
Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Thx,
JD
