Hello everyone,

I've been trying to enroll with dogtag via SSCEP for the last few days to
no avail and I've reached the end of my rope, so I'm reaching out for your
help (which I very much would appreciate).

I am running Ubuntu and my dogtag versions are:
hayg at hayg:~$ dpkg -l | grep dogtag

> ii  dogtag-pki                               10.2.6-1
>    all          Dogtag Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Suite
> ii  dogtag-pki-console-theme                 10.2.6-1
>    all          Certificate System - PKI Console User Interface
> ii  dogtag-pki-server-theme                  10.2.6-1
>    all          Certificate System - PKI Server User Interface


My SSCEP:
[~/sscep]$ cat VERSION


> 0.6.1


My flatfile.txt:
hayg at hayg:~$ sudo cat /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/conf/ca/flatfile.txt

> #UID:172.16.24.238
> #PWD:1212
> UID:10.129.25.186
> PWD:secret

(I restarted my pki-tomcatd service just in case, to make sure it took
effect)

On the SSCEP side I'm doing: ./sscep enroll -l cert.pem -r local.csr -k
local.key -c astourian.crt -u '
http://hayg.astourian.info:8080/ca/cgi-bin/pkiclient.exe'

This fails because the request is getting deferred and I have fail on defer
set to true, per the docs.

The request actually shows up in 'List Certificates' when I go to the web
UI, but when I try to approve it, I get:

> The Certificate System has encountered an unrecoverable error.
> Error Message:
>
> *java.lang.NullPointerException*Please contact your local administrator
> for assistance.

When I try to resume the enrollment by adding the -R flag to sscep it fails
with the following error in the logs:

CRSEnrollment: No certificate has been found


My CSR:
[~/sscep]$ openssl req -in local.csr -noout -text

As you can see, the password is "secret" and the CN is the UID from
flatfile.txt.

I welcome you all to try enrolling with my server. I can then try approving
and see if it works.

Again, I very much appreciate all of your help. Please excuse my wall of
text x_x

Thanks,
Hayg
