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 Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2010-10-05 18:04:39 UTC 
Description of problem:
SSSD doesn't check cacertdir or the cacert during startup.

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


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure sssd.conf with incorrect ldap_tls_cacertdir and ldap_tls_cacert.
<snip>
[domain/LDAP]
id_provider = ldap
auth_provider = ldap
ldap_uri = ldaps://sssdldap.domain.com
ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com
cache_credentials = true
enumerate = true
ldap_tls_cacertdir = /etc/openldap/cacert
ldap_tls_cacert = /etc/openldap/cacert/cacert.asc
debug_level = 9
</snip>
2. Restart sssd.
3. Observe sssd_DOMAIN.log or /var/log/messages.
  
Actual results:
sssd_DOMAIN.log
<snip>
(Tue Oct  5 23:14:57 2010) [sssd[be[LDAP]]] [sdap_get_generic_send] (3): ldap_search_ext failed: Can't contact LDAP server

(Tue Oct  5 23:14:57 2010) [sssd[be[LDAP]]] [fo_set_port_status] (4): Marking port 636 of server 'sssdldap.domain.com' as 'not working'
</snip>

/var/log/message

Oct  5 23:17:43 rhel5-6-Server sssd[be[LDAP]]: LDAP connection error: (null)
</snip>

Expected results:
Should check the cacertdir and the cacert during provider startup and fail with a debug message earlier and also report this into syslog.

Please check to see if the defined directory exists, if not ... error.  Then check if the cacert file is defined and if it not ... error.
