Description of problem: Under some circumstances we update some files (/etc/hosts/ in that case) before the actual installation begins. If the user then interrupts the installation after the change the actual installation starts, he may be surprised that he ends up with partially configured system. This means that he has to run ipa-server-install --uninstall before he can run ipa-server-install again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ipa-server-2.1.1-101.20111004T0103zgita013597.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Run ipa-server-install so that /etc/hosts is updated (this happens when the hostname is not resolvable and we install with --setup-dns or --no-host-dns): # ipa-server-install -p secret123 -a secret123 --setup-dns --forwarder=1.2.3.4 --hostname=ipa.example.com The log file for this installation can be found in /var/log/ipaserver-install.log ============================================================================== This program will set up the IPA Server. This includes: * Configure the Network Time Daemon (ntpd) * Create and configure an instance of Directory Server * Create and configure a Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) * Configure Apache (httpd) * Configure DNS (bind) To accept the default shown in brackets, press the Enter key. Existing BIND configuration detected, overwrite? [no]: y Enter the fully qualified domain name of the computer on which you're setting up server software. Using the form <hostname>.<domainname> Example: master.example.com. Server host name [ipa.example.com]: Warning: The host name 'ipa.example.com' does not match the system host name 'vm-063.idm.lab.bos.redhat.com'. Some services may not work properly. Warning: skipping DNS resolution of host ipa.example.com The domain name has been calculated based on the host name. Please confirm the domain name [example.com]: Unable to resolve IP address for host name Please provide the IP address to be used for this host name: 10.16.78.63 Adding [10.16.78.63 ipa.example.com] to your /etc/hosts file The IPA Master Server will be configured with Hostname: ipa.example.com IP address: 10.16.78.63 Domain name: example.com The kerberos protocol requires a Realm name to be defined. This is typically the domain name converted to uppercase. Please provide a realm name [EXAMPLE.COM]: [CTRL+C] was hit Cleaning up... Now, we cannot run installer again. # ipa-server-install The log file for this installation can be found in /var/log/ipaserver-install.log IPA server is already configured on this system. If you want to reinstall the IPA server please uninstall it first. Steps to Reproduce: 1. ipa-server-install -p secret123 -a secret123 --setup-dns --forwarder=1.2.3.4 --hostname=ipa.example.com 2. Interrupt the wizard after the IP address is passed to the installer (see example above) 3. Try running ipa-server-install again Actual results: You have to run ipa-server-install --uninstall before you can try installing again Expected results: ipa-server-install cleans up /etc/hosts if the installation was interrupted or exited with an error before it actually started configuring services so that user can execute a second run of ipa-server-install without need of uninstalling it first.
