Can you please provide log files? Especially /var/log/ipaupgrade.log, to begin with.
Fraser, thanks for the reply. I meant to answer my own email with the solution but I couldn't see it on the list?
Anyway - the solution was that the /etc/hosts file on the server in question had a ::1 localhost address. We have the IPv6 disabled (combination of one of our services not working with IPv6 and our network not being IPv6 ready) in the OS.
Once I deleted that line from /etc/hosts, everything went to plan.
Ok. By the look of this commit (to 4.5):
https://pagure.io/freeipa/c/bdf9a34dffdf4d7925208e5df9f69e3927b88858
from this issue https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/7083
It is (or was) the IPv6 problem.
We have an
[root@linuxidm ~]# cat /etc/sysctl.d/ipv6.conf # Disable IPv6 net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 net.ipv6.conf.ens160.disable_ipv6 = 1
We don't have the 'lo' interface defined in there, but it's never been an issue.
The /etc/hosts entry for ::1 must have thrown ipa-server-upgrade.
cheers L.
