I (re?) added the dogtag ca cert to the /etc/httpd/alias db:

certutil -d /var/lib/pki-ca/alias/ -L -n 'caSigningCert cert-pki-ca' -a > 
IPACA.asc

certutil -d /etc/httpd/alias -A -n 'IPA CA' -i IPACA.asc -t CTu,Cu,Cu

Now I get:

Preparing replica for ipapub.cora.nwra.com from ipa.cora.nwra.com
Copying SSL certificate for the Directory Server from STAR_cora_nwra_com.p12
Creating SSL certificate for the dogtag Directory Server
Certificate issuance failed

/var/log/pki-ca/debug shows:

What cert needs to be created?  Aren't I already specifying the certs for the 
new server?

Thanks.
