#6086 CA replica install logs to wrong log file
Closed: Fixed Opened by ftweedal.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

When running ipa-ca-install to install a CA replica, if the
installation fails it says:

Your system may be partly configured.
Run /usr/sbin/ipa-server-install --uninstall to clean up.
Unexpected error - see /var/log/ipareplica-ca-install.log for details:

However, the actual log file was /var/log/ipaserver-ca-install.log.

Expected behaviour: progress is logged to /var/log/ipareplica-ca-install.log
as suggested by the error message.

Some info, log name and log file mismatch for running on master was introduced in commit d27e77adc56f5a04f3bdd1aaed5440a89ed3acad (4.1) the issue was then extended also to replica promotion in 958996b9cc55b6e9ecdc23981e79599ec6826b4c (4.3)

master:

  • 1b8a36d134dd320896e05809cc6b49f725eadda7 unite log file name of ipa-ca-install

Test coverage: no - Logging needs to be handled properly and will be refactored, otherwise this is low prio.
