Is this an IPV6 thing? Because ipactl shows everything green and
certmonger is running.
Hi Bret,
the issue looks similar to https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/6575 and
https://pagure.io/dogtagpki/issue/2570 which were IPv6 related. Note
that IPv6 must be enabled on the machine but IPA does not require an
IPv6 address to be configured (except for the loopback).
You can check the following:
- is PKI listening to port 8009 on IPv6 or IPv4 interface?
sudo netstat -tunpl | grep 8009
tcp6 0 0 127.0.0.1:8009 :::* LISTEN 10749/java
- /etc/pki/pki-tomcat/server.xml defines a redirection from port 8009 to
8443, and the "address" part is important:
<Connector port="8009"
protocol="AJP/1.3"
redirectPort="8443"
address="localhost" />
In the above example, it will be using localhost which can resolve
either to IPv4 or IPv6.
- /etc/hosts must define the loopback addresses with
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6
localhost6.localdomain6
HTH,
Flo.

Looks like this is an HTTP error; so is it possible that my IPA thinks
it has a CA but there's no CMS available?

I'm definitely not a web kind of guy so I'm not sure if this is
helpful or not. This is on 4.4.0, API Version 2.213.

Good news. One of my servers _does_ have CA installed. So why does
"Action -> New Certificate" not do anything on this or any other server?

I recently had to upgrade all my Fedora IPA servers to C7. It went
well, and we've been up and running nicely on 4.4.0 on C7 for the
past month or so.
Today, someone came and asked me to generate a new certificate for
their web server. All was good until I went to the IPA UI and tried
to perform Actions->New Certificate, which did nothing. I tried
each of our 3 servers in turn. All came back with no popup window
and no error, either.
I suspect the problem might be that we no longer have a CA server
due to the method I used to upgrade the servers. I likely missed a
"--setup-ca" in there somewhere, so my rolling update rolled over
the CA.
What's my best hope of recovery? I never ran this before, so I'm
not sure if this shows that I'm missing a CA or not:
