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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2016:2404 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE ipa bug fix and enhancement update 2016-11-03 13:56:18 UTC

Description Abhijeet Kasurde 2015-09-24 06:44:10 UTC 
Description of problem:
During dirsrv installation using ipa-server-install, command '/usr/sbin/setup-ds.pl' failed. ipa-server-install command proceeded without checking status of installation of dirsrv, which cause further installation failures such as 

1. Failed to restart the directory server
2. Failed to load default schema 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-4.2.0-12.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create failure in setup-ds.pl (I created a empty directory in /etc/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name)
2. Do ipa-server-install

Actual results:
ipa-server-install proceeds further without checking installation of dirsrv 

Expected results:
ipa-server-install fail immediately after setup-ds.pl failures.

This issue is already tracked in upstream ticket 2539, I will link it to this Bugzilla.

Jan, with the recent installation refactoring, would it be easier to fix this (benign) gap in the installer?

Verified on RHEL73 using

ipa-server-4.4.0-11.el7.x86_64
389-ds-base-1.3.5.10-11.el7.x86_64

1. Created an empty directory named slapd-LABS03-TEST in /etc/dirsrv/
[root@ipa01 dirsrv]# ls -l

drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root    6 Sep 15 16:04 slapd-LABS03-TEST <===

2. Installation fails immediately after setup-ds.pl failures. Traceback message is not seen anymore as mentioned in original comment.
