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 Ming Davies 2017-06-20 10:58:24 UTC 
Description of problem:
Customer said that they migrated users from the older version of IPA that had "objectclass=posixAccount" rather than "objectclass=posixaccount, which is problematic when comes to using "ipa idoverrideuser-add"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-4.4.0-14.el7_3.7.x86_64
389-ds-base-1.3.5.10-20.el7_3.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create two users in IPA using a ldif file, one with ""objectclass=posixAccount" and the other with "objectclass=posixAccount"
2. Load the users to the IPA
3. Then run:
ipa idview-add testview
ipa idoverrideuser-add testview <username> --homeDirectory=/var/tmp

Actual results:

user with "objectClass: posixAccount"
# ipa idoverrideuser-add testview cgoodwin --homedir=/home/cgoodwin
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'IPA object': system IPA objects (e.g system groups, user private groups) cannot be overridden


user with "objectClass: posixaccount
# ipa idoverrideuser-add testview bgoodwin --homedir=/home/mygoodwin
---------------------------------
Added User ID override "bgoodwin"
---------------------------------
  Anchor to override: bgoodwin
  Home directory: /home/mygoodwin


Expected results:


Additional info:
The workaround is to replace "objectclass=posixAccount" with "objectclass=posixaccount
