Q

How to Enroll Fabric CA Client Admin Identity?

✍: FYIcenter.com

A

In order to use Fabric CA Client tool, you must enroll the server admin identity first.

1. Make sure Fabric CA Server is running at port 7054.

2. Set up FABRIC_CA_CLIENT_HOME environment variable to avoid using the default of $HOME/.fabric-ca-client

$ mkdir -p ~/fabric-ca/native-client/admin
$ cd ~/fabric-ca/native-client/admin

$ export FABRIC_CA_CLIENT_HOME=~/fabric-ca/native-client/admin

3. Enroll the server admin identity:

$ $GOPATH/bin/fabric-ca-client enroll -u http://admin:adminpw@localhost:7054

Created a default configuration file at ./fabric-ca-client-config.yaml
generating key: &{A:ecdsa S:256}
encoded CSR
signed certificate with serial number 13871342861339063003788651767087891270...
127.0.0.1:42276 POST /enroll 500 0 "Certificate signing failure: Failed 
to insert record into database: attempt to write a readonly database"

4. The enrollment failed with an error. But it created a configuration file and MSP directory structure:

$ ls -l
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fyicenter 6553 Apr  1 15:38 fabric-ca-client-config.yaml
drwx------ 6 fyicenter 4096 Apr  1 15:38 msp

$ ls -l msp 
drwxr-xr-x 2 fyicenter 4096 Apr  1 15:38 cacerts
drwx------ 2 fyicenter 4096 Apr  1 15:38 keystore
drwxr-xr-x 2 fyicenter 4096 Apr  1 15:38 signcerts
drwxr-xr-x 2 fyicenter 4096 Apr  1 15:38 user
