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 Lenka Doudova 2015-01-27 09:30:14 UTC 
Description of problem:
When a kerberos ticket with remaining lifetime of 5 minutes or less, freeIPA webUI authentication is unsuccessfull while no error message is printed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-admintools-4.1.0-15.el7.x86_64
ipa-client-4.1.0-15.el7.x86_64
ipa-python-4.1.0-15.el7.x86_64
ipa-server-4.1.0-15.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a ticket with remaining lifetime of 5 minutes or less: kinit -l 5m admin
2. check the ticket is valid: klist
3. open freeIPA UI
4. click Login

Actual results:
An "Authenticating" sign flashes, then nothing happens (user is still on logging screen). No error message appears.

Expected results:
User should be automatically logged in freeIPA or an error message should be shown.

Additional info:
No kerberos ticket minimum lifetime found in ipa, logging with 5minute ticket should work.

Kerberos log:

Thank you taking your time and submitting this request for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Unfortunately, this bug was not given a priority and was deferred both in the upstream project and in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Given that we are unable to fulfill this request in following Red Hat Enterprise Linux releases, I am closing the Bugzilla as WONTFIX. To request that Red Hat re-considers the decision, please re-open the Bugzilla via appropriate support channels and provide additional business and/or technical details about its importance to you.

Note that you can still track this request or even contribute patches in the referred upstream Trac ticket.
