https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D280405 Bug ID: 280405 Summary: security/step-certificates: 'service step-ca configure' fails Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: jason.mann@gmail.com CC: mw@wipp.bayern CC: mw@wipp.bayern Flags: maintainer-feedback?(mw@wipp.bayern) I installed the step-certificates and step-cli packages on a FreeBSD-14.1-RELEASE-amd64 system. Following the installation, I performed the following actions: - Added 'step_ca_enable=3D"YES"' to /etc/rc.conf.local - Ran 'service step-ca configure' root@filer ~]# service step-ca configure No configured Step CA found. Creating new one.... open /usr/local/etc/step/ca/contexts.json failed: not a directory Step CA Password file for auto-start not found Creating it.... Please enter the Step CA Password: After entering a password, I could see that /usr/local/etc/step/password.txt had been created, as well as a /usr/local/etc/step/ca file. The service then could not be started: [root@filer ~]# service step-ca start Starting step_ca. step_ca is not running. Judging by the "open /usr/local/etc/step/ca/contexts.json failed: not a directory" error, that 'ca' file should instead be a directory. I examined the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/step-ca RC script and found the followin= g on line 93: install -m 600 -o ${step_ca_user} -g ${step_ca_group} /dev/null ${step_ca_steppath} It appears this line is missing a '-d' argument to create a directory and instead creates a file. I added the '-d' argument to the script on my system, deleted the /usr/local/etc/step/ca and password.txt files, then re-ran 'service step-ca configure' and got what looks like the correct outcome: [root@filer /usr/local/etc/step]# service step-ca configure No configured Step CA found.
