Enterprise Identity Management (IdM) PKI Cannot Publish CRL After Upgrade to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4/IdM 3.0
Issue
- The directory where IdM PKI publishes the CRL (
/var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish/) gets incorrect ownership after theipa-serverpackage is updated or reinstalled, which leads to PKI not being able to update CRL in this directory:
# ls -la /var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish/
total 244
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root pkiuser 12288 May 17 04:49 . <<< owned by pkiuser group
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 May 17 04:49 ..
...
-rw-rw-r--. 1 pkiuser pkiuser 414 May 17 01:00 MasterCRL-20130517-010000.der
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 pkiuser pkiuser 57 May 17 01:00 MasterCRL.bin ->
/var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish/MasterCRL-20130517-010000.der
/var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish/ changes when freeipa-server package gets reinstalled or updated:
# yum reinstall ipa-server
# ls -la /var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish/
total 244
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 12288 May 17 04:49 . <<< owned by root
