Unable to install ipa client centos 7.5.1804 (Core)

[William Graboyes]

Hello List,

I have been searching around for the day and have found an answer for 
the error I am getting when I am trying to install the client on a brand 
new install:

Version:

ipa-client-4.5.4-10.el7.centos.3.x86_64
ipa-client-common-4.5.4-10.el7.centos.3.noarch

The error is below (run as root, not via sudo):
ipa-client-install
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/sbin/ipa-client-install", line 22, in <module>
     from ipaclient.install import ipa_client_install

   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyasn1/type/namedtype.py", 
line 232, in __computeAmbiguousTypes
     ambigiousTypes[idx] = NamedTypes(*partialAmbigiousTypes, 
**dict(terminal=True))
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyasn1/type/namedtype.py",

     self.__tagToPosMap = self.__computeTagToPosMap()
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyasn1/type/namedtype.py", 
line 205, in __computeTagToPosMap
     for _tagSet in tagMap.presentTypes:
AttributeError: 'property' object has no attribute 'presentTypes'

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

What version of python2-pyasn1 do you have?

Can you confirm you don't have a pip-installed version of pyasn1 installed?

Probably not still a problem for Bill, but this problem typically means a version mismatch between installed packages.

In this specific case, python2-pyasn1 and python2-pyasn1-modules

To check: yum info "python2-pyasn1*"
