#1704 After uninstalling all KRA instances, dogtag still returns info that KRA instance exists somewhere
Closed: Fixed None Opened 9 years ago by mbasti.

Hello,

in IPA project we hit this bug https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/5469

When all KRA instances are uninstalled, following method, 'is_installing_replica', still returns True, what in IPA context means that KRA still exists on any server

def get_security_domain():
    """
    Get the security domain from the REST interface on the local Dogtag CA
    This function will succeed if the local dogtag CA is up.
    """
    connection = PKIConnection()
    domain_client = pki.system.SecurityDomainClient(connection)
    info = domain_client.get_security_domain_info()
    return info


def is_installing_replica(sys_type):
    """
    We expect only one of each type of Dogtag subsystem in an IPA deployment.
    That means that if a subsystem of the specified type has already been
    deployed - and therefore appears in the security domain - then we must be
    installing a replica.
    """
    info = get_security_domain()
    try:
        sys_list = info.systems[sys_type]
        return len(sys_list.hosts) > 0
    except KeyError:
        return False

sys_type = "KRA"
>>> print(repr(sys_list.hosts))
{u'KRA vm-058-094.example.com 443': <pki.system.SecurityDomainHost object at 0x7f95171b9510>}

Uninstallation of KRA is done with following command:

pkidestroy -i pki-tomcat -s KRA

This is reproducible with just one server too:

ipa-server-install
ipa-kra-install
ipa-kra-install --uninstall
ipa-kra-install

Let me know if you need additional info.


The uninstaller fails to remove the security domain information from LDAP. We suspect that the sslget call is wrong. I haven't figured out the correct call yet.

:443']' returned non-zero exit status 3!

I was able to install KRA again after I removed the security domain for the KRA instance:

ldapdelete -H ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fslapd-ABC-IDM-LAB-ENG-BRQ-REDHAT-COM.socket "cn=vm-058-094.abc.idm.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com:443,cn=KRAList,ou=Security Domain,o=ipaca"

sslget fails with a HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request. Apache error log contains this line:

[Wed Nov 25 19:57:02.505877 2015] [:error] [pid 12657] Hostname vm-058-094.abc.idm.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com 
provided via SNI, but no hostname provided in HTTP request

It looks like a bug in sslget. It doesn't set a Hostname header.

The problem seems to be limit to Fedora. I wasn't able to reproduce the issue on a fresh RHEL 7.2 server. ipa-kra-install --uninstall sucessfully removed the KRA entry from LDAP.

Per CS/DS meeting of 11/30/2015 - 10.3 blocker

The problem occurs on systems with mod_nss >= 1.0.12. Since https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/mod_nss.git/tree/ChangeLog#n18 mod_nss supports SNI. Apache HTTPD requires a HTTP Host header for SNI requests. With TLS SNI but without HTTP Hosts, a HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request is returned to the client.

sslget must set Host HTTP header
