#5690 ipa-replica-install fail due to % in Directory Manager password
Closed: Fixed None Opened 8 years ago by mrjester.

New install of Fedora 23 + FreeIPA. 4.2 latest from repo on 2/21/2016.(sorry, I don't have specific version)

ipa-replica-install fails with pkispawn due to unescaped %. The percent sign is in Directory Manager password. The string "found" below, is a portion of the DM password.

2016-02-21 23:18:38 pkispawn : ERROR ....... Deployment file could not be parsed correctly. This might be because of unescaped '%%' characters. You must escape '%%' characters in deployment files (example - 'setting=foo%%%%bar').
2016-02-21 23:18:38 pkispawn : ERROR ....... Interpolation error ('%' must be followed by '%' or '(', found: '%0g.QDk@NY~B2')


PKI bug was fixed in 10.3, we should retest with ipa.

4.4.0 was released, moving open tickets to 4.4.1

Tested with pki-server 10.3.4-0.1.fc24 and was not able to reproduce with ipa server 4.4.0.

Scenario 1: install ipa-server with domain-level 1 (=default value), then install replica with ipa-client-install and ipa-replica-install, with password Secret%123.

Scenario 2: install ipa-server with domain-level 0, then use ipa-replica-prepare and install the replica with ipa-replica-install <replica.file> with password Secret%123

=> closing the issue
