Public bug reported:
clean install ubuntu 16.04, kernel 4.4.0-79, running ipa-server-install
after installing freeipa-server always fails. It successfully gets
through all 46 previous steps, and fails on pki-tomcatd:
Configuring certificate server (pki-tomcatd). Estimated time: 3 minutes 30
seconds
[1/28]: creating certificate server user
[2/28]: configuring certificate server instance
ipa.ipaserver.install.cainstance.CAInstance: CRITICAL Failed to configure CA
instance: Command '/usr/sbin/pkispawn -s CA -f /tmp/tmpIHv1S_' returned
non-zero exit status 255
ipa.ipaserver.install.cainstance.CAInstance: CRITICAL See the installation logs
and the following files/directories for more information:

ipa.ipapython.install.cli.install_tool(Server): ERROR The ipa-server-install
command failed. See /var/log/ipaserver-install.log for more information
CA configuration failed. Something is certainly wrong when the software
can't be installed on a newly installed ubuntu box.
Namely, the script seems to choke when trying to write out the config
file:
2017-06-16T07:09:49Z DEBUG args=/usr/sbin/pkispawn -s CA -f /tmp/tmpIHv1S_
2017-06-16T07:09:49Z DEBUG Process finished, return code=255
2017-06-16T07:09:49Z DEBUG stdout=ERROR: File '/etc/pki/default.cfg' is either
missing or is NOT a regular file!
usage: pkispawn [-s <subsystem>] [-h] [-v] [-p <prefix>] [-f <file>]
PKI Instance Installation and Configuration
There's nowhere in the documentation, in the script, in the packages,
anywhere, that says I should first create a /etc/pki/default.cfg file,
nor what that file should contain (it appears the script is trying to
generate that file itself but doesn't). A fix would be appreciated.
