While those original issues have since been resolved, I am having difficulty replacing the system. I can create a new replica, but I cannot use the '--setup-ca' option, nor can I run 'ipa-ca-install'. I have been working on this for quite some time, and seem to be going in circles. Any help would be greatly appreciated. (host and domain names have been modified) ipasrv001 was the original master, installed using an external CA, no DNS and no NTP. DNS and NTP are already provided in my environment. ipasrv201 is a replica installed with --setup-ca, which has since been re-configured as the new CA master following this guide: <a href="https://www.freeipa.org/page/Howto/Promote_CA_to_Renewal_and_CRL_Master#Procedure_in_FreeIPA_.3C_4.0" target="_blank">https://www.freeipa.org/page/Howto/Promote_CA_to_Renewal_and_CRL_Master#Procedure_in_FreeIPA_.3C_4.0</a> I have also pointed cs-replication to this system from all other replicas. I used ipasrv201 to generate new replica-info for ipasrv001. These systems are Enterprise Linux 6.8. Current software versions are as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@ipasrv001 ~]# rpm -qa --queryformat='%{NAME} %{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}\n' ipa-server pki-ca 389-ds-base java-1.7.0-openjdk certmonger certmonger 0.77.5-2.el6 pki-ca 9.0.3-50.el6_8 389-ds-base 1.2.11.15-75.el6_8 java-1.7.0-openjdk 1.7.0.111-2.6.7.2.0.1.el6_8 ipa-server 3.0.0-50.el6_8.3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I receive the following error when attempting to create a new replica: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@ipasrv001 ~]# ipa-replica-install --no-ntp --setup-ca --skip-conncheck replica-info-ipasrv001.example.com.gpg Directory Manager (existing master) password: Configuring directory server for the CA (pkids): Estimated time 30 seconds [1/3]: creating directory server user [2/3]: creating directory server instance [3/3]: restarting directory server Done configuring directory server for the CA (pkids).
