Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

When attempting to promote an IDM client to a replica, the install fails. In /var/log/ipareplica-install.log you see the following errors:

ipa         : CRITICAL Failed to restart the directory server (Command '/bin/systemctl restart dirsrv@IPA-LOCAL.service' returned non-zero exit status 1). See the installation log for details.
  [29/44]: setting up initial replication
  [error] error: [Errno 111] Connection refused
Your system may be partly configured.
Run /usr/sbin/ipa-server-install --uninstall to clean up.

ipa.ipapython.install.cli.install_tool(Replica): ERROR    [Errno 111] Connection refused
ipa.ipapython.install.cli.install_tool(Replica): ERROR    The ipa-replica-install command failed. See /var/log/ipareplica-install.log for more information
