#968 pki user-cert-show gives an UserNotFoundException when the required options are switched position
Closed: Invalid None Opened 10 years ago by rpattath.

[root@sigma tmp.tPCcRUL4tm]# pki user-cert-show
usage: user-cert-show <User ID> <Cert ID> [OPTIONS...]
--encoded Base-64 encoded
--output <file> Output file
--pretty Pretty print

I gave the Cert ID first and then the User ID as follows:

[root@sigma tmp.tPCcRUL4tm]# pki -d /opt/rhqa_pki/certs_db/ -n CA_adminV -c redhat123 -t ca user-cert-show "2;84;CN=CA Signing Certificate,O=lab.eng.rdu.redhat.com Security Domain;UID=testuser2,E=testuser2@example.org,CN=Test user2,OU=Engineering,O=Example,C=US" testuser2

UserNotFoundException: User 2 not found

User testuser2 exists with fullName="Test User2"


While the error message is slightly confusing (only in the fact that it says "User 2"), I would expect to receive an error like "user not found" if you swap the order of arguments. You can't switch the order of the "User ID" and "Cert ID" options. It's treating the first option as a user ID, and it can't find a user based on that input. What else is expected?
