Closed: fixed 6 years ago Opened 6 years ago by frenaud.

Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7): Bug 1484428

Description of problem:
After upgrading top IPA Server 4.5, running ipa-server-upgrade fails with;
2017-08-22T15:37:42Z DEBUG args=/usr/bin/certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-XX -L -n
Server-Cert -a -f /etc/dirsrv/slapd-XX/pwdfile.txt
2017-08-22T15:37:42Z DEBUG Process finished, return code=255
2017-08-22T15:37:42Z DEBUG stdout=
2017-08-22T15:37:42Z DEBUG stderr=certutil: Could not find cert: Server-Cert

Here's a dump of what's in the certificates:
certutil -L -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-XX
Certificate Nickname                                         Trust Attributes
                                                             SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI

XX IPA CA                                          CT,C,C
digicertRoot                                                 CT,,

Organization u,u,u

The last certificate is the Server-Cert with a different name. Renaming it
makes dirsrv@.service fail on start.

kinit works. Logging in from the web does not.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
I'm only done an upgrade once. Not sure.

Steps to Reproduce:
yum update on a server running 7.3 with ipa-server which has a signed cert from
a 3rd party CA.

Actual results:


Expected results:
Upgrade succeeds.
