Be sure the CA is completely uninstalled. The installer sometimes 
doesn't record that a CA has been partially installed causing the 
uninstall to skip it, which causes subsequent installs to fail.

Do this:

# ipa-server-install --uninstal
# /usr/bin/pkiremove -pki_instance_root=/var/lib 
-pki_instance_name=pki-ca --force

Then try the install again.
