[Bug 1769485] Re: freeipa install server fails - cannot start apache server with SSL

 

I realized now that "hostnamectl set-hostname" is not deterministic.
Most of the times, the new hostname is lost after reboot, sometimes,
without any apparent reason, it is preserved. The problem is that I
installed Ubuntu 18.04 with the Live image, which has some peculiarities
(see https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2390785). I will
reinstall with the alternate ISO and see what happens.

Title:
  freeipa install server fails - cannot start apache server with SSL

Status in freeipa package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After having installed the new version of Tomcat 8, compatible with
  JDK 8 (see
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat8/+bug/1765616), I am
  still stucked with freeipa-server on Ubuntu 18.04.

  The ipa-server-install script fails during step "[19/21]: starting
  httpd" of HTTP configuration.  From my investigation, it seems that
  the problem is that the SSL private key in
  /var/lib/ipa/private/httpd.key has a passphrase, saved in
  /var/lib/ipa/<host>-443-RSA. The passphrase is correct (I checked with
  openssl), but Apache does not find it.

  [Test Case]

  Add repository ppa:freeipa/ppa, install freeipa-server, run ipa-
  server-install.

  [What expected]

  ipa-server-install terminates without errors.

  [What happens]

  ipa-server-install fails.
