New subject: Unable to access web-ui after FreeIPA 4.4 to 4.5 upgrade.

7 Aug 2017


      Hi, we just upgraded one of our FreeIPA 4.4 to FreeIPA 4.5 (running on RHEL) and wanted to put this here before creating a bug report with RedHat.
After upgrading we are unable to log into web-ui but everything else seems to be working OK.
WBR-UI gives us an: "Login failed due to an unknown reason"
I see this in the httpd error log:

Natually, first thing I tried was disabling SELinux, and reboot, but same result.
IPA is version: ipa-server-4.5.0-21.el7.x86_64 
(replica being latest 4.4 on RHEL but not sure we dare updating this).
Problem seems much like this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1452215 
But Again, not entirely and that seemes SELinux related and things doesn't seems to be SELinux related here.
Also, trying the kinit listed in the error log asks for password. I suspect that this should succeed?
