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 Miroslav Vadkerti 2016-06-24 12:47:11 UTC 
Description of problem:
When we try to start sssd with:

[sssd]
user = sssd

The daemon does not start. I can see this in journal:

Jun 24 13:33:58 cc-vtoe13b.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com sssd[23367]: Exiting the SSSD. Could not restart critical service [ssh].
Jun 24 13:33:58 cc-vtoe13b.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com systemd[1]: sssd.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1

More interesting stuff is in sssd_cctest.com.log (with level 4):

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-ipa-1.14.0-0.1.alpha.el7.x86_64
sssd-krb5-common-1.14.0-0.1.alpha.el7.x86_64  
sssd-common-1.14.0-0.1.alpha.el7.x86_64
sssd-client-1.14.0-0.1.alpha.el7.x86_64  
sssd-common-pac-1.14.0-0.1.alpha.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup sssd for an IPA server (via ipa_client)
2. Set user=sssd in sssd.conf [sssd] section
3. Restart sssd

Actual results:
sssd does not start

Expected results:
sssd works as in RHEL7.2

Additional info:
This is an regression. I do not think this has anything to do with out IPA server's config running currently on RHEL7.2. We can provide test machine for reference if needed. We are able to test this concrete bug but we cannot provide extended testing of sssd itself.
