[Freeipa-devel] Fwd: Still failing on 5.7 with the same error........

We're having significant reproducible problems with rhel 5.7 + FreeIPA master...
I'm not sure if it is localized to us or even which side is responsible for the error...

Has anyone had success with rhel 5.7's repo included FreeIPA client joining a fedora based FreeIPA server?

We are essentially dead in the water at this point.

Apparently this error is printed from FreeIPA code and not an underlying library.
Here’s the relevant bit from ipa-getkeytab.c:

       /* Format of response
       *
       * KeytabGetRequest ::= SEQUENCE {
       *     new_kvno      Int32
       *     SEQUENCE OF   KeyTypes
       * }
       *
       * * List of accepted enctypes *
       * KeyTypes ::= SEQUENCE {
       *     enctype              Int32
       * }
       */

       rtag = ber_scanf(sctrl, "{i{", &kvno);
       if (rtag == LBER_ERROR) {
              fprintf(stderr, "ber_scanf() failed, Invalid control ?!\n");
              goto error_out;
       }


However, the call that’s failing (ber_scanf()) is one from the openldap library:

[root at util1 Server]# strings /usr/lib/liblber-2.3.so.0 |grep ber_scanf
ber_scanf
ber_scanf fmt (%s) ber:
ber_scanf: unknown fmt %c
ber_scanf

Are you sure it’s not the server?  Can you check the logs?
