[Freeipa-users] ipa-replica-prepare Certificate issuance failed

[Chris Evich]

Hi,

I've got a FreeIPA setup at home I just built the other week on Fedora 
16.  It's a very small/basic setup I'm mainly using for secure 
NFS+Kerberos and automount.  Today, I updated everything and rebooted, 
and all seemed to be working okay (even /var/log/ipaupgrade.log).  I'm 
now running:

freeipa-python-2.1.4-7.fc16.x86_64
freeipa-client-2.1.4-7.fc16.x86_64
freeipa-admintools-2.1.4-7.fc16.x86_64
freeipa-server-2.1.4-7.fc16.x86_64
freeipa-server-selinux-2.1.4-7.fc16.x86_64

pki-selinux-9.0.19-1.fc16.noarch
pki-ca-9.0.19-1.fc16.noarch

I went to try and setup a replica following the docs at 
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/FreeIPA_Guide/Setting_up_IPA_Replicas.html 
and ran into a problem I can't figure out (after checking logs, list, 
google, and BZ searches):

[root@<master> log]# ipa-replica-prepare <replica fqdn>
Directory Manager (existing master) password:

Preparing replica for <replica fqdn> from <master fqdn>
Creating SSL certificate for the Directory Server
Certificate issuance failed

I just ran it again, with a tail on /var/log/pki-ca/debug and this is 
what it spat out:

Which also looks normal (to me).  Though I've done nothing intentional 
with anything certificate related, again this is mainly a setup for 
kerberos.  Where else can I look, or what can I run to get more clues 
why ipa-replica-prepare is failing?

Thanks.
