CA - Subordinate Instance Revocation Problem

-

hello, all

i've encountered strange behavior managing ad certificate services. see, have 2 certificate servers - root ca (offline) , subordinate ca (online) server issue certificate demand. time time certsrv can't start , gives error:

active directory certificate services did not start: not load or verify current ca certificate. ckex issuing certificate revocation function unable check revocation because revocation server offline. 0x80092013 (-2146885613 crypt_e_revocation_offline).

but quite common issue due crl expire , problem fixed booting root ca , re-issuing crl with:

revoke certificates -> all tasks -> publish

and replacing new root certificate crl 1 subordinate ca has in extension path.

the problem have - doesn't work anymore. if i'm trying revoke, publish , replace crl root ca, startup error still remain. change i've noticed has renewed ca certificate same key pair, can see 2 certificates in extensions path:

both certificates valid, , i'm wondering - affect crl? if yes need update certificate information across ad (may publish new root ca? or rid of if possible?).

thank in advance.

if ca renewed same key, 1 crl created. believe problem dspublish command. "rootca" argument used publishing root ca certificates, not crl. crl rootca should published as:

certutil -dspublish <your crl here>

the -f isn't needed since published crl. f forces creation of object when publishing first crl, stated have done in past.
