To confirm, with the PPA the installation continues, and "Configuring
certificate server" succeeds.

However, now "Configuring the web interface" fails with

  [12/21]: setting up ssl
  [error] RuntimeError: Certificate issuance failed (CA_REJECTED)
ipapython.admintool: ERROR    Certificate issuance failed (CA_REJECTED)
ipapython.admintool: ERROR    The ipa-server-install command failed. See /var/log/ipaserver-install.log for more information

and in the log there is this:

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The issue occurs while installing IPA server. More specifically whist
  configuring pki-tomcatd. The following error is produced.

  Configuring certificate server (pki-tomcatd). Estimated time: 3 minutes
        [1/28]: configuring certificate server instance
      ipaserver.install.dogtaginstance: CRITICAL Failed to configure CA instance: CalledProcessError(Command ['/usr/sbin/pkispawn', '-s', 'CA', '-f', '/tmp/tmpEHq9Ex'] returned non-zero exit status 1: u"pkispawn    : ERROR    ....... subprocess.CalledProcessError:  Command '['sysctl', 'crypto.fips_enabled', '-bn']' returned non-zero exit status 255!\npkispawn    : ERROR    ........... server did not start after 60s\npkispawn    : ERROR    ....... server failed to restart\n")
      ipaserver.install.dogtaginstance: CRITICAL See the installation logs and the following files/directories for more information:
      ipaserver.install.dogtaginstance: CRITICAL   /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat
        [error] RuntimeError: CA configuration failed.
      ipapython.admintool: ERROR    CA configuration failed.
      ipapython.admintool: ERROR    The ipa-server-install command failed. See /var/log/ipaserver-install.log for more information

  The cause for this is that tomcat8 is built with JDK9 and is not
  compatible with instances that have to use JRE8 for other reasons.

  [Test Case]

  Install freeipa-server, run ipa-server-install.

  [Regression Potential]

  The fix is a fairly big patch for tomcat8 to modify the code so that
  it runs with JRE8. It passes the upstream test suite though, when run
  with JRE8 though tomcat itself was built with the default JDK.

  [Other info]

  Patch will be sent upstream too.
