Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

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 Sudhir Menon 2016-08-19 06:52:04 UTC

Description of problem: Replace ERROR: cannot connect to "http://localhost:8888/ipa/json': [Errno 111] Connection refused" with "IPA is not configured on this system"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-4.4.0-7.el7.x86_64

How reproducible: Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure all the packages related to ipa-server is installed.
2. Ensure that ipa-server is not installed.
3. Now run the below commands.

Actual results:

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa trust-find
ipa: ERROR: cannot connect to 'http://localhost:8888/ipa/json': [Errno 111] Connection refused

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-advise
trying http://localhost:8888/ipa/json
Forwarding 'schema' to json server 'http://localhost:8888/ipa/json'
cannot connect to 'http://localhost:8888/ipa/json': [Errno 111] Connection refused
The ipa-advise command failed.

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-managed-entries status
Unexpected error
NetworkError: cannot connect to 'http://localhost:8888/ipa/json': [Errno 111] Connection refused

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-replica-install
Configuring client side components

ipa.ipapython.install.cli.install_tool(Replica): ERROR    The ipa-replica-install command failed. See /var/log/ipareplica-install.log for more information

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-compat-manage
An IPA server to update cannot be found. Has one been configured yet?
The error was: IPA realm not found in DNS, in the config file (/etc/ipa/default.conf) or on the command line.

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-join
cannot open configuration file /etc/ipa/default.conf
Unable to determine IPA server from /etc/ipa/default.conf

Expected results: Basically all the commands, if possible should check if ipa server is installed in the first place and if not then it should display message like 'IPA is not configured on this system" rather than displaying Network error or any other message.

This is for uniformity across all commands behaviour when ipa-server is not installed.

Some of the commands which displayed proper message.

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-nis-manage

[root@ipaserver ~]# ipa-dns-install
