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.

Fixed In Version: pki-core-10.5.1-14.el7_5
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
This update enhances Certificate System to automatically apply ECC profiles when setting up a new root CA with ECC profiles using the *pkispawn* utility. As a result, administrators no longer have to set the profile overwrite parameters for ECC certificates as a workaround in the configuration file passed to *pkispawn* when setting up a root CA.

commit 3ad054342a08719cd80c618c2aa260210b418113 (ticket-2959-pkispawn-EC-profiles)
Author: Christina Fu <cfu>

    Ticket #2959 Address pkispawn ECC profile overrides
    
    This patch enables proper ECC profiles to be automatically applied during
    pkispawn.
    
    This patch would eliminate the need for the workaround documented here:
    http://www.dogtagpki.org/wiki/PKI_10.5_Pkispawn_ECC_Profile_Workaround
    
    The idea is to use the % replacement strings as part of the profile names
    in the default.cfg file for pkispawn,
    and change the profile names to mach the format. So for example:
    
    %(pki_admin_key_type)AdminCert.profile
    
    would either be translated to rsaAdminCert.profile or eccAdminCert.profile
    depending  on the value in pki_admin_key_type
    
    All 6 relevant profiles have been renamed per new convention.

Comment 3 Christina Fu 2018-06-29 17:56:40 UTC 
Test procedure:

Take any existing successful test case for installing an ECC root CA.
LEAVE OUT the workaround step from:http://www.dogtagpki.org/wiki/PKI_10.5_Pkispawn_ECC_Profile_Workaround

Watch how without the workaround from url above, the installation should succeed.
Double check and make sure the following three certs are EC certs:
SSL server cert
subsystem cert
bootstrap admin's cert

Make sure the bootstrap admin cert can connect to agent page.
Comment 6 Amol K 2018-07-17 10:16:07 UTC 
I tested this Bugzilla on 10.5.1-14.el7_5 version.

I tried the CA setup without the workaround, it worked as expected. I could see the SSL Server, Subsystem Cert and Admin Cert's algorithms are ECC.
