9.2. CA installation error log files on the first IdM CA server


When you install the Certificate Authority (CA) service on an Identity Management (IdM) server, debugging information is appended to the following locations (in order of recommended priority):

Expand
LocationDescription

/var/log/pki/pki-ca-spawn.$TIME_OF_INSTALLATION.log

High-level issues and Python traces for the pkispawn installation process

journalctl -u pki-tomcatd@pki-tomcat output

Errors from the pki-tomcatd@pki-tomcat service

/var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/ca/debug.$DATE.log

Large JAVA stacktraces of activity in the core of the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) product

/var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/ca/signedAudit/ca_audit log file

Audit log of the PKI product

  • /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/ca/system
  • /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/ca/transactions
  • /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/catalina.$DATE.log

Low-level debug data of certificate operations for service principals, hosts, and other entities that use certificates

注意

If a full IdM server installation fails while installing the optional CA component, no details about the CA are logged; a message is logged in the /var/log/ipaserver-install.log file indicating that the overall installation process failed. Review the log files listed above for details specific to the CA installation failure.

The only exception to this behavior is when you are installing the CA service and the root CA is an external CA. If there is an issue with the certificate from the external CA, errors are logged in /var/log/ipaserver-install.log.
