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 Jan Cholasta 2015-08-11 16:46:26 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/5089

Better documentation of the profile format used in the certprofile
plugin is needed.

----

[root@dhcp201-194 ~]# ipa certprofile-import TestcaUserCert1 --desc="TestcaUserCert1 profile Enrollment Profile" --store=False --file=/tmp/TestcaUserCert1.xml
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'file': Profile ID is not present in profile data

Issue seen even in interactive mode:
[root@dhcp201-194 ~]# ipa certprofile-import
Profile ID: TestcaUserCert1
Profile description: Manual User Dual-Use Certificate Enrollment
Store issued certificates [True]: False
Filename: /tmp/x1.xml
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'file': Profile ID is not present in profile data

I was able to add once i provided .cfg file (taken from template /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcatd/ca/profiles/ca

mkosek: problem in (2) is that XML profile was used and not the Dogtag standard profile (e.g. /usr/share/ipa/profiles/caIPAserviceCert.cfg). Maybe we should add better docs?

ftweedal: Yes, clearer doc is needed.  I will file ticket.

Comment 5 Scott Poore 2015-09-29 16:43:56 UTC 
Verified.

Version ::

ipa-server-4.2.0-11.el7.x86_64

Result ::

[root@rhel7-1 ~]# ipa help certprofile
...
  Save profile configuration to a file:
    ipa certprofile-show caIPAserviceCert --out caIPAserviceCert.cfg
...
PROFILE CONFIGURATION FORMAT:

The profile configuration format is the raw property-list format
used by Dogtag Certificate System.  The XML format is not supported.

The following restrictions apply to profiles managed by FreeIPA:

- When importing a profile the "profileId" field, if present, must
  match the ID given on the command line.

- The "classId" field must be set to "caEnrollImpl"

- The "auth.instance_id" field must be set to "raCertAuth"

- The "certReqInputImpl" input class and "certOutputImpl" output
  class must be used.
