RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Sudhir Menon 2015-11-20 07:28:17 UTC
Description of problem: When ipa-winsync-migrate command is run on the system which is not yet configured as ipa-server, the traceback message displayed on the console should be replaced with user-friendly message saying that 'IPA is not configured on this system'

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 7.2

How reproducible:Always, when IPA server is not configured on the system

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to RHEL7.2
2. Run "yum install ipa-server ipa-server-trust-ad"
3. Ensure "ipa-server-install" is not run.
4. Now do "ipa-winsync-migrate"
5. Now do "ipa-adtrust-install"

Actual results:

4. traceback message is displayed on the console.
[root@ipaserver1 ~]# ipa-winsync-migrate 
ipa: WARNING: session memcached servers not running
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/ipa-winsync-migrate", line 23, in <module>
    WinsyncMigrate.run_cli()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ipapython/admintool.py", line 124, in run_cli
    sys.exit(cls.main(sys.argv))

    conn = self.create_connection(*args, **kw)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ipaserver/plugins/ldap2.py", line 149, in create_connection
    client_controls=clientctrls)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ipapython/ipaldap.py", line 1070, in gssapi_bind
    '', auth_tokens, server_controls, client_controls)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/contextlib.py", line 35, in __exit__
    self.gen.throw(type, value, traceback)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ipapython/ipaldap.py", line 975, in error_handler
    error=info)
ipalib.errors.NetworkError: cannot connect to 'ldap://localhost:389': 

5. Traceback message is not displayed on the console, although ipa-server-install is not run on the system

[root@ipaserver1 ~]# ipa-adtrust-install 
The log file for this installation can be found in /var/log/ipaserver-install.log
IPA is not configured on this system.


Expected results:
Instead of the traceback message seen in Actual Results 4, the output should be 
similar to what we see in Actual Results 5.

Basically replace traceback message with user-friendly message on the console.

This bug was accidentally moved from POST to MODIFIED via an error in automation, please see mmccune with any questions

Comment 6 Sudhir Menon 2016-07-18 10:23:21 UTC
Traceback is not displayed now when ipa-winsync-migrate command is run without ipa-server installed.

Verified using ipa-server-4.4.0-2.1.el7.x86_64

[root@server ~]# ipa-winsync-migrate 
IPA is not configured on this system.
