When you install an Identity Management (IdM) client, debugging information is appended to /var/log/ipaclient-install.log. If a client installation fails, the installer logs the failure and rolls back changes to undo any modifications to the host. The reason for the installation failure may not be at the end of the log file, as the installer also logs the roll back procedure.
To troubleshoot a failing IdM client installation, review lines labeled ScriptError in the /var/log/ipaclient-install.log file and use this information to resolve any corresponding issues.
