Pitfalls during Testbed installation (CA creation)

kretzschi commented 2 years ago

I came across some issues/inconsistencies with the Testbed installation guide and collected them.

the mentioned directory in the CA README does not exist -> should be changed to cd CertificateAuthority
the command to create a sub CA is wrong. Correct is python3 pki.py subca create --CA "Test CA" --common-name [Sub CA name]
before the 2nd step of the device certificate creation it should be mentioned, where the created key pair is located, namely in CertificateAuthority/data/cert. Otherwise it is not clear where to find them.
the last step of fileing the certificates to the components refers to a non existing folder ../../../DataspaceConnector/src/main/resources/conf. I think it should refer to the two DataspaceConnectors within the testbed: cp {CERT_FILENAME}.p12 ../../../DataspaceConnectorA/src/main/resources/conf and cp {CERT_FILENAME}.p12 ../../../DataspaceConnectorB/src/main/resources/conf

Edit: Currently, I am not able to assign the issue so I use the mention functionality: @aitorce @jfernandezsqs
