Xml parsing error, issue clear and debbuged

[Ecniv64]

hello again, I have some difficulties with the xml bug..

My xml file (ocspd) seems to be correct, I uploaded it to some xml parser / verifiers and no errors were throw.

But the programs tells that something is wrong with it, so I debugged a bit the whole thing:

root@kali:/usr/etc/ocspd# ocspd -c ocspd.conf -v

I would like also to ask about the namespace thing in xml :
<pki:serverConfig xmlns:pki="http://www.openca.org/pki/1/0/0">

This url seems invalid (404), is that the reason of the malfunction ?

Is this still valid in the new release (v3.1.1+) or can we close this issue ?

I'm new to the package but seem to be running into the same issue on a fresh build of 3.1.1 (Centos 6):

root@watchtower:ocsp# ocspd -c ocspd.conf -stdout  -v

As a followup, this was new user error. OCSPd moved to XML based configuration at some point, which is obviously different that the ocspd.conf configuration I was feeding it. My confusion came from the man page for ocspd.conf that still ships and installs with the code.
