Hi list,

I successfully have IPA working with CA certs signed by an upstream
Dogtag.

Now I'm trying to use a CA cert signed by a different type of CA -
Vault.

Setup fails, using the same 2 step IPA setup process as used with
upstream Dogtag. I've also tried the external-ca-type option.

Likely, IPA doesn't like the certificate - however, I can't
pinpoint why.

I'm guessing you don't include the entire CA certchain of Vault. Dogtag
is failing to startup because it can't verify its own cert chain:

0.localhost-startStop-1 - [15/Oct/2015:14:39:27 UTC] [20] [1]
CAPresence:  CA is present
0.localhost-startStop-1 - [15/Oct/2015:14:39:27 UTC] [20] [1]
SystemCertsVerification: system certs verification failure

Hi Rob,

Thanks for the reply.

I do present the IPA installer with both the CA and the IPA cert -
the IPAs
python-based install code is happy with the cert chain, but the Java
based
dogtag code chokes on it.

OpenSSL is happy with it too.

#####
[root@foo ~]# openssl verify ipa.crt
ipa.crt: O = LOCAL, CN = Certificate Authority
error 20 at 0 depth lookup:unable to get local issuer certificate

[root@foo ~]# openssl verify -CAfile vaultca.crt ipa.crt
ipa.crt: OK
###

Any hints on how to reproduce this with more debug output? I'd like
to know
exactly what Dogtag doesn't like about the certificate.

thanks

James M

Let me CC at least Jan Ch. and David, they may be able to help and
should also
make sure FreeIPA gets better in validating the certs, as appropriate.


Any thoughts guys?

I cc'd one of the dogtag guys to see if he knows.

You might also try using certutil to validate the certificates, it might
give you some hints to what is going on.

I'm assuming your certdb (it can vary by version) is in
/var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias

certutil -L -d /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias will give you the list of
certificates installed. You can verify each one to see what is going on.
The -u flag specfies usage. See the certutil man page for a full set of
options.

For example:

# certutil -V -u C -d /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias -n 'auditSigningCert
cert-pki-ca'
certutil: certificate is valid

Hi All,

I've created a ticket to track this

https://fedorahosted.org/pki/ticket/1697

Rob - certutil output:

Some certificates types seem not to be approved. Not sure if this is a red herring.
