[Freeipa-users] ipa-server-install and ipactl fails after reboot

[Andreas Calminder]

Hello,
I have a really strange problem while installing the ipa-server. I've 
installed the server like this:
# ipa-server-install --idstart=76400000 -N --realm=DOMAIN.TLD 
--hostname=idm1.sub.domain.tld -n domain.tld --external-ca 
--external-ca-type=ms-cs

I get he csr and send it off to our AD admin, I poweroff the machine and 
take a snapshot, because you know, if anything goes wrong I want a clean 
snapshot. I startup the machine and try to run the installer a second 
time, like suggested by the installer:
# ipa-server-install --external-cert-file=/tmp/ipa.crt 
--external-cert-file=/tmp/ca_chain.crt

It fails with Unable to access directory server: Can't contact ldap server.

Ok, fine because it wasn't started after reboot.

# ipactl start
Starting Directory Service
Failed to read data from service file: Failed to get list of services to 
probe status!
Configured hostname 'idm1.sub.domain.tld' does not match any master 
server in LDAP:
idm1.sub.domain.tld
Shutting down

I reverted back to my snapshot, I still get the same error message. I 
can start the dirsrv without problem with systemctl start dirsrv at DOMAIN-TLD.
