#142 Fix client uninstall error on server uninstsall
Closed: Fixed None Opened 13 years ago by rcritten.

If you have a blown install or run the server uninstaller more than once there are times when you'll get a message like:

ipa-client-install returned: Command '/usr/sbin/ipa-client-install --on-master --unattended --uninstall' returned non-zero exit status 1

This is really because the client was never configured. We should handle this better.


This tries to fix a lot of spurious errors in the client and server uninstallers, particularly when recovering from a blown install.

An uninstall should return no errors. Some suggested tests might be:

  • run ipa-client-install --uninstall --on-master, then ipa-server-install --uninstall
  • use ipa-getcert stop-tracking -i <id>, then ipa-server-install --uninstall
