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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2011:1707 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE krb5 bug fix update 2011-12-06 01:02:29 UTC

Description Nalin Dahyabhai 2011-07-21 18:16:07 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #723723 +++

The init script explicitly checks for a database file or pretend the db_library to be kldap.

I have a custom driver and the check fails.

At most the kadmin init script may check if db_library is present w/o trying to guess what value it should be set to.

But most probably it would be better to skip the check altogether and let kadmin log in /var/log/kadmin.log that there are errors.

The situation is particularly hard to discover because the initscript output is completely suppressed in F15 when systemctl gets involved.

I had to run it with SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_REDIRECT=1 to finally get the error and find out what was going on.
