[Freeipa-users] Can't use "ipa" commands on brand new ipa server instance

[Bret Wortman]

I just got a new ipa server instantiated and haven't actually installed 
any users or hosts on it yet. No replicas. No migrated data.

Yet when I run any "ipa" commands from the command line, it behaves 
exactly as our older, troubled servers do and exits the login session 
immediately, whether I'm connected at the console or via ssh. Further, 
when I run strace to try to capture what might be going on, the behavior 
stops. "Script" also prevents commands from exiting, but this is really 
disconcerting. I was chalking this up to the fact that our database had 
become corrupted by our replication problems, but now I'm thinking it 
might be environmental, though our original IPA servers are running F18 
and this new instance is F20.

I need some stability here, and CLI is part of that. What might be 
causing the CLI to not work at all when coupled to a TTY device, as that 
seems to be the critical piece? Could this be related to the servers 
being VMs?
