Just to add that for the build part (so not including the patches to

allow ipa server to start), I launched a test build that should appear

here (when finished) :

https://armv7.dev.centos.org/rpmbuild/c71611-updates-1/17474-ipa-4.4.0-14.el7.centos/

(and so https://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/c71611-updates-1/ipa/)

It would be good if you could confirm that those would work for you

Hi,

I have installed IPA Server now but there were some problems to solve.

But 1st thanks for that speedy build and providing of the IPA server packages for ARM32!!!

To explain how I have installed:

• yum-plugin-priorities installed and configured (default repositories like base & updates pro 1)
  
• c71611-updates.repo added:
  

[c71611-updates]
name=IPA rebuild for armhfp
baseurl=https://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/c71611-updates-1/
includepkgs=ipa* python2-ipa*
enabled=1
priority=2
gpgcheck=0

• yum clean all
  
• yum makecache fast
  
• yum install spa-server …
  

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: pki-server-10.3.3-16.el7_3.noarch (updates)
           Requires: velocity
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

This means ipa-server depend on package pki-server-10.3.3-16.el7_3.noarch which is available but its requires the package velocity which is not available. Because it is „noarch"

I have downloaded it from upstream 

# wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7.3.1611/os/x86_64/Packages/velocity-1.7-10.el7.noarch.rpm
# yum deplist velocity-1.7-10.el7.noarch.rpm

  dependency: servlet3

   provider: tomcat-servlet-3.0-api.noarch 7.0.69-10.el7

There are again 3 packages missing which I have also downloaded from upstream and these again misses packages. So I have decided to add the upstream base, update etc. repositories for noarch only:

[base-upstream]

name=CentOS-$releasever-Upstream - Base

mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=$infra

#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/x86_64/

includepkgs=*.noarch

enabled=1

priority=3

gpgcheck=1

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

#released updates 

[updates-upstream]

name=CentOS-$releasever-Upstream - Updates

mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=x86_64&repo=updates&infra=$infra

#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/x86_64/

includepkgs=*.noarch

enabled=1

priority=3

gpgcheck=1

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

…

After that I was able to install the software and setup the replica on the Banana PI. Of course, I must change the timeout as described in the mentioned thread but the information there are from the official FreeIPA site https://www.freeipa.org/page/HowTo/FreeIPA_on_banana_pi and some additional search shows that this is not a problem of FreeIPA instead it is a workaround for this OpenJDK bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1400462. I will now also switch to Oracle Java, but IMO should we not generally patch the timer value.

I have one additional request. In my first tries the upstream repositories had a heifer prio as c71611-updates-1 and I got error messages like these:

Error: Package: ipa-server-4.4.0-14.el7.armv7hl (c71611-updates)

           Requires: ipa-server-common = 4.4.0-14.el7

           Available: ipa-server-common-4.4.0-12.el7.centos.noarch (base-upstream)

               ipa-server-common = 4.4.0-12.el7.centos

           Available: ipa-server-common-4.4.0-14.el7.centos.noarch (updates-upstream)

               ipa-server-common = 4.4.0-14.el7.centos

           Available: ipa-server-common-4.4.0-14.el7.centos.1.1.noarch (updates-upstream)

               ipa-server-common = 4.4.0-14.el7.centos.1.1

           Available: ipa-server-common-4.4.0-14.el7.centos.4.noarch (updates-upstream)

               ipa-server-common = 4.4.0-14.el7.centos.4

The I have checked and „yum info spa-server“ on CentOS 7.3 x86_64 returns:

Name        : ipa-server

Arch        : x86_64

Version     : 4.4.0

Release     : 14.el7.centos.4

Otherwise if I look into https://armv7.dev.centos.org/rpmbuild/c71611-updates-1/ there are 3 IPA directories

16302-ipa-4.4.0-14.el7.centos/

17021-ipa-4.4.0-14.el7.centos.4/

17474-ipa-4.4.0-14.el7.centos/

The last is your working build. Otherwise there was already started with the current release 14.el7.centos.4 but if I look into build.log only source RPM was written, nothing more.

Can you please redo the full IPA build with this release?

TIA,

Silvio
