[Freeipa-users] Freeipa fails to start after a reboot

[Steven Jones]

So Im having fun.........

Looks like the rpm didnt install properly?  or the install script
failed? strange because it seemed to be running before I rebooted....so
something has gone wrong after teh install?

[root at fed14-64-ipam001 init.d]# ipa start
ipa: ERROR: unknown command 'start'
[root at fed14-64-ipam001 init.d]# ./ipa start
