Hi-

I'm new to FreeIPA.  I'm installing on an up-to-date Fedora 18 system from the 
freeipa packages available with Fedora 18.  When running ipa-server-install, 
the install process fails here:

The tail of the installer log looks like this:

Is there a workaround or fix available?  I haven't found any relevant 
information via a web search, and a few searches on bugzilla.redhat.com have 
come up empty.


We've seen just one other report of this and unfortunately the VM was removed 
before we could do a lot of diagnosis. What we saw was that certutil output 
garbage when requesting the RA admin certificate. Can you look in 
/var/log/ipaserver-install.log for the last certutil command? Does stdout 
contain a lot of garbage characters in it? It should consist of a 
base64-encoded CSR.

Hope this helps.

Ok, easily reproduced with this version of nss. I filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=910584

For a workaround you might try to yum downgrade nss. You may need to downgrade several other subpackages as well like nss-tools and nss-sysinit depending on your install.

I think you can safely upgrade again once the install is complete.
