Description Abhijeet Kasurde 2015-09-24 06:44:10 UTC
Description of problem:
During dirsrv installation using ipa-server-install, command '/usr/sbin/setup-ds.pl' failed. ipa-server-install command proceeded without checking status of installation of dirsrv, which cause further installation failures such as 

1. Failed to restart the directory server
2. Failed to load default schema 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-4.2.0-12.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create failure in setup-ds.pl (I created a empty directory in /etc/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name)
2. Do ipa-server-install

Actual results:
ipa-server-install proceeds further without checking installation of dirsrv 

Expected results:
ipa-server-install fail immediately after setup-ds.pl failures.

Additional info:
Attaching ipaserver-install.log

This issue is already tracked in upstream ticket 2539, I will link it to this Bugzilla.

Jan, with the recent installation refactoring, would it be easier to fix this (benign) gap in the installer?

Martin, I believe so, but it's still WIP, the code related to this bug was not updated yet.

Verified on RHEL73 using

ipa-server-4.4.0-11.el7.x86_64
389-ds-base-1.3.5.10-11.el7.x86_64

1. Created an empty directory named slapd-LABS03-TEST in /etc/dirsrv/
[root@ipa01 dirsrv]# ls -l
total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root   82 Sep 15 15:31 config

drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root    6 Sep 15 16:04 slapd-LABS03-TEST <===

2. Installation fails immediately after setup-ds.pl failures. Traceback message is not seen anymore as mentioned in original comment.

[root@ipa01 dirsrv]# ipa-server-install --setup-dns --forwarder=*.*.*.*  -r LABS03.TEST -p ***** -a **** --zonemgr=tãako.redhat.com -U
