Certificate templates files used with JSPs

When you implement the web application using JSPs, there are two versions of the certificate templates file:
  • An XML templates file, pkitmpl.xml, used to customize the web application
  • A text CGI templates file, pkixgen.tmpl, used by the PKI Services daemon
Whenever you update pkitmpl.xml, you must use the TemplateTool utility to create an equivalent copy of pkixgen.tmpl. For more information, see Using the TemplateTool utility. If you do not create an updated pkixgen.tmpl file, the daemon writes the following message to the daemon log file when it determines that pkixgen.tmpl is not current:
IKYC068I The templates file used may not be current

The default location of the two versions of the template file is /etc/pkiserv/. Alternatively, if the environment variable PKISERV_CONFIG_PATH is defined, PKI JSP processing uses the value of PKISERV_CONFIG_PATH as the location of pkitmpl.xml and pkixgen.tmpl . The XML schema is defined in the file PKIServ.xsd in the same directory as pkitmpl.xml.
