#1615 Misleading error message during installation
Closed: migrated 3 years ago by dmoluguw. Opened 8 years ago by edewata.

The PKI server generates the following message when it is started for the first time during installation before being configured by pkispawn:

Sep 23 14:14:16 server.example.com server[13604]: CMS Warning: FAILURE: Cannot
build CA chain. Error java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificate is
not a PKCS #11 certificate|FAILURE: authz instance DirAclAuthz initialization
failed and skipped, error=Property internaldb.ldapconn.port missing value|

This is actually a normal part of the installation. If the installation works fine, usually the error message can be ignored safely. However, if the installation fails, the message can be misleading the investigation so the actual error does not get resolved as quickly.

Possible solutions:
1. The code that generates the error message should be disabled during installation.
2. The pkispawn should prepare everything needed by the server before running it for the first time.

This code change should be encountered during normal QE testing, and therefore does not merit its own specific Bugzilla Bug.
