[Freeipa-users] CentOS 6.6 Installation Issues

[Les Stott]

Randall,

Check your apache error logs for any errors and the modules loaded via httpd.conf. The ipa server log does show that it can reach apache for most things.

I had a similar issue not too long ago when trying to install a CA replica on an existing ipa server, which is pretty much the same process that the master server install does.

I found that I was missing modules in httpd.conf and errors were popping up about mod_proxy. As it turned out, not having those modules loaded caused the installer to fail.

See https://www.redhat.com/archives/freeipa-users/2015-February/msg00041.html for the solution that helped me, hopefully it helps you too.

Regards,

Les
