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 Jan Pazdziora 2019-09-24 10:45:18 UTC
Description of problem:

When ipa-server-4.6.5-11.el7.x86_64 and its dependencies from RHEL 7.7 are installed on RHEL 7.6 which is not fully up-to-date, ipa-server-install fails.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

ipa-server-4.6.5-11.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:

Deterministic.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have RHEL 7.6 machine.
2. Point it to RHEL 7.7 repository.
3. Install ipa-server.
4. Run ipa-server-install.

Actual results:

  [18/29]: Ensure lightweight CAs container exists
  [19/29]: configure certificate renewals
  [20/29]: configure Server-Cert certificate renewal
  [21/29]: Configure HTTP to proxy connections
  [22/29]: restarting certificate server
  [23/29]: updating IPA configuration
  [24/29]: enabling CA instance
  [25/29]: migrating certificate profiles to LDAP
  [26/29]: importing IPA certificate profiles
  [27/29]: adding default CA ACL
  [28/29]: adding 'ipa' CA entry
  [29/29]: configuring certmonger renewal for lightweight CAs
Done configuring certificate server (pki-tomcatd).
Configuring directory server (dirsrv)
  [1/3]: configuring TLS for DS instance
  [2/3]: adding CA certificate entry
  [3/3]: restarting directory server
Done configuring directory server (dirsrv).
ipapython.admintool: ERROR    CA did not start in 300.0s
ipapython.admintool: ERROR    The ipa-server-install command failed. See /var/log/ipaserver-install.log for more information

Expected results:

ipa-server-install passes.

Additional info:

When yum upgrade -y is done before running that ipa-server-install, it passes as well. I suspect nss might be involved. However, if ipa-server or some of its components needs certain other component in a particular version, it should have versioned dependency.

Seems like a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1751374

Comment 4 Rob Crittenden 2019-10-31 15:37:40 UTC
We can't test all possible combinations of package installations. I'm not sure what to do with this. This does not occur on a fully updated installation.

Comment 5 Florence Blanc-Renaud 2020-01-29 16:53:15 UTC
Upstream ticket:
https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/8141

Comment 6 Florence Blanc-Renaud 2020-01-29 16:54:17 UTC
I didn't test all possible combinations but saw that using RHEL7.6 + 389-ds-base-1.3.9.1-10.el7.x86_64 fails.
On the other hand RHEL 7.6 + 389-ds-base-1.3.9.1-10.el7.x86_64 + nss-3.44.0-4.el7.x86_64 succeeds.

We should bump the Requires of nss to 3.44 in our ipa.spec file for RHEL 7.7+. Linking this BZ to pagure ticket https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/8141  #8141 Update nss dependency in the ipa-server rpm

Setting qe_test_coverage to - as no test/automation required for this.
