With the openssl command line utility you get: Error Loading extension section v3_ca 21647:error:0D06407A:asn1 encoding routines:a2d_ASN1_OBJECT:first num too large:a_object.c:108: 21647:error:2208B077:X509 V3 routines:V2I_AUTHORITY_INFO_ACCESS:bad object:v3_info.c:172:value=caRepository 21647:error:22098080:X509 V3 routines:X509V3_EXT_nconf:error in extension:v3_conf.c:93:name=subjectInfoAccess, value=caRepository;URI:http://www.foo.com/ Now admittedly the "first number too large" is a bit misleading but the second error indicates a bad OID and that it doesn't like "caRepository". Perhaps whatever you are using isn't printing out the full error message? Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
