Because your CRL is DER-encoded, but you tell openssl that it is PEM-encoded (the default). > Basically customer certificate was in DER format. Only the format of your CRL is of interest here. > If CRL was in DER > format, is it mandatory to mention "-inform DER" in the command line? That's what I wrote in my last mail. Please check again my answer and the documentation.
