[Freeipa-users] Re: `ipactl restart` fails with `Unknown error when retrieving list of services from LDAP: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)`

Did you get a resolution to this?  We're seeing the same thing when installing on Rocky9. Initial bring up is OK but after restart it fails.  In our case it is because the ldap_uri line is missing from /etc/ipa/default.conf (the topic of the Redhat article)

Once we manually insert that, we hit an error with krb5kdc and kadmin failing to start and we more or les follow the steps documented here to get them to start up:

On initial install everything works, only once we restart the VM or the service does this issue arise.
