sscep does not accept an URL without a subpath

[bjanders]

I used the URL: http://localhost:2014/ and sscep gives the error:

sscep: illegal URL http://localhost:2014/

(Hope I'll not be arrested for using an illegal URL.)

The problem is probably because it tries to parse dir_name which will be empty in the above case and then the check on line 466 in sscep.c will fail.

I'm using release 0.7.0.

I worked around it by replacing:

    if (!dir_name) {
         fprintf(stderr, "%s: illegal URL %s\n", pname, url_char);
         exit (SCEP_PKISTATUS_ERROR);
    }

with:

   if (!dir_name) {
           dir_name = p;
   }

That way dir_name points to the '\0' char of the URL string in case the there is nothing after the ending '/' char. It's probably not the best or right solution, but works for my purposes.

Hello. Thanks for the workaround. The URL parsing was reworked for IPv6 and the latest version in the develop branch does not generate this error anymore.
