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 Rob Crittenden 2013-01-08 20:40:10 UTC 
Description of problem:

Installing IPA  with a single component for the realm sometimes fails.

It fails because dc=<component> has updates applied before cn=schema so there are objectclass violations.

The one realm I've confirmed it fails with is TESTRELM. I've tried others, alphabetically before and after and it installs fine, so I'm not sure what is different about this.

Normally update entries are sorted by DN such that parents are applied before children (we sort by length). And cn=schema should be a special case so it is always applied first.

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

ipa-server-3.0.0-20.el6.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ipa-server-install --realm=TESTRELM

Actual results:

Seen in ipa-server-install output near end:

ipa.ipaserver.install.ldapupdate.LDAPUpdate: ERROR    Update failed: Object class violation: unknown object class "nisDomainObject"

Fixed upstream.

master: 1d2d1e1af1660d022adca447f900403d171cba00

ipa-3-1: 41b2febff00999dc6b477f18e2ad89cd49e39532

ipa-3-0: ad2a2002457ec74a9372f4de1b6fcee37494daef

Changed the DN sort routine to always sort cn=schema first.
