Summary

This chapter analyzed some of the common issues that can affect you during the lifetime of your PKI deployment. Because it is impossible to list all possible failure scenarios, details about the expected successful workflow was shown. Based on that information, you can identify deviations that would potentially be the cause of the problems you observe.

For most troubleshooting processes, a good theoretical background can drastically help you understand the debug messages and the expected workflow. This is fully applicable to PKI technologies as well.
