sssctl config-check does not give any error when default configuration file (sssd.conf) is not present.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-1.15.1-1.el7.x86_64.

How reproducible:
Always.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install -y sssd sssd-tools.
2. Create sssd.conf.
3. Start sssd service.
4. Remove sssd.conf file.
5. Before restart of sssd, run sssctl config-check.

Is is not a regression.

Please remove regression keyword.

Comment 5 Madhuri 2017-03-16 06:04:01 UTC

Suppose I mistakenly removed default configuration file then

Error message for rhel7.3 is as below

# sssctl config-check

(Thu Mar 16 11:12:17:300084 2017) [sssd] [confdb_setup] (0x0010): ConfDB initialization has failed [1432158244]: Missing configuration file
(Thu Mar 16 11:12:17:300252 2017) [sssd] [sss_tool_confdb_init] (0x0010): Unable to setup ConfDB [1432158244]: Missing configuration file

but for rhel7.4, getting empty output.

This utility should not modify/touch file /var/lib/sss/db/config.ldb.
It was bug in "sssctl config-check"; that such debug messages were printed.
DEBUG messages cannot be translated and therefore should not be considered as expected output.

Comment 10 Madhuri 2017-05-16 06:23:11 UTC

Tested with 
sssd-1.15.2-29.el7.x86_64
sssd-tools-1.15.2-29.el7.x86_64

Steps followed during verification:
1. Install sssd and sssd-tools package.
2. Create sssd.conf.
3. Start sssd service.
4. Remove sssd.conf file.
5. Run # sssctl config-check.

#rm /etc/sssd/sssd.conf
rm: remove regular file ‘/etc/sssd/sssd.conf’? y

# sssctl config-check
File /etc/sssd/sssd.conf does not exist.
