[Freeipa-users] F18 -> F19 upgrade

[Ian Chapman]

Hi,

I've just recently upgrade my F18 server to F19 and IPA is failing to start:

It seems that the pki-cad service fails to start. Is that in relation to 
dogtag upgrade of 9 to 10 or possibly another problem?

There is of course this page:

http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Migrating_Dogtag_9_Instances_to_Dogtag_10

but frankly I don't really understand it. Well I get that the idea is to 
create a new pki cloned instance which would be dogtag 10 compatible and 
then delete the old one - I'm really don't know what I'm supposed to put 
in the configuration file. Has anybody else done this? Is there some 
more examples? Thanks.


The status of pki-cad is:
