You need to enable debugging and re-run 'ipa trust-add':

- set 'log level = 50' in /usr/share/ipa/smb.conf.empty
- Add
    [global]
    debug = True
  in /etc/ipa/server.conf (create file if missing)
- restart httpd (systemctl restart httpd)
- re-try 'ipa trust-add'

Then look into what was logged in /var/log/httpd/error_log.

Also look on the AD side to see if the trust was created.
