Description Vaclav Ehrlich 2012-01-18 15:13:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
When finishing oVirt installation engine-setup end with error. Creating of certificate authority is not possible if is used too long host name.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Follow instructions to install oVirt http://ovirt.org/wiki/Installing_ovirt_from_rpm
2.When run engine-setup set long host name (42 characters)
3.Continue with set-up until the end
  
Actual results:
Set-up finish with error with creating certificate authority

Expected results:
Set-up create certificate authority and finish without errors.

Additional info:
Or user should be informed with maximum length of hostname.
Comment 1 Ofer Schreiber 2012-01-18 15:51:28 UTC 
1. Please provide the relevant setup logs
2. I think we should restrict the hostname length (or cut it), since the actuall issue here is that openssl doesn't allow really long subjects (which is usually hostname + 5 digit random)
Comment 2 Eyal Edri 2012-01-18 16:23:14 UTC 
Regarding the solution,

Miki, is there a preference here for truncating the hostname or limiting it in the setup?
