That clarifies everything!
Thanks to all,

Correction:
The index.txt file is an ascii file consisting of 6 (not 4)
tab-separated fields. Some of those fields may be empty and might
appear not to exist at all.
The 6 fields are:
0) Entry type. May be "V" (valid), "R" (revoked) or "E" (expired).
Note that an expired may have the type "V" because the type has
not been updated. 'openssl ca updatedb' does such an update.
1) Expiration datetime.
2) Revokation datetime. This is set for any entry of the type "R".
3) Serial number.
4) File name of the certificate. This doesn't seem to be used,
ever, so it's always "unknown".
5) Certificate subject name.

/C=IN/ST=TamilNadu/O=cbe/CN=test
where:
V - Certificate is Valid (R for revoked
certificates )
051213070133Z - Date upto which the certificate is valid
B3500880020644B6 - Serial number of the certificate
/C=IN/ST=TamilNadu/O=cbe/CN=test - subject of the certificate

Hello,
is the format for "index.txt" database file of a CA defined somewhere?
I want to run "openssl ocsp" as a small test OCSP responder, which
needs this index file as input. For testing purposes I would like to
manipulate some lines of this file, but I can't find any documentation
about the format?
By the way, is there a possibility to use a real database instead
of this plain ASCII file?
Thanks in advance,
Marco
