RFC5280 section 4.2.1.13. states: "When the HTTP or FTP URI scheme is
used, the URI MUST point to a single DER encoded CRL as specified in
[RFC2585]."

The URL you have in the certificate points to a PEM-encoded file, not a
DER-encoded file.

So, our error message slightly misses the point, granted. But it made
you look in the right direction, which I guess means it has done its job :-)

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
