Hi Oleg,

please make sure the values in the .ipa/default.conf and
/etc/ipa/default.conf are valid. The exception you encountered is raised
in this part of the code:

  if api.env.ra_plugin != 'dogtag':
      # In this case, abort loading this plugin module...
      raise SkipPluginModule(reason='dogtag not selected as RA plugin')

For a newly installed IPA master, I am not hitting this issue. I can see
that /etc/ipa/default.conf does contain correct value on my machine:

  [global]
   ...
  ra_plugin=dogtag
  ...

Additionally, you can try running:

  $ ipa console
  (Custom IPA interactive Python console)
  >>> from ipalib import api
  >>> api.env.ra_plugin
  u'dogtag'
  >>>

HTH,
Tomas
