This is an old thread but I’m running into this issue and was wondering if 
there was ever a resolution to this.  

Tldr - 

My master failed and was not able to start up due to the dse.ldif being a zero 
byte file and the .bak file was unusable as well.  Ended up using the startOK 
file and that got my IPA master back up.  I didn’t find out till a week or so 
later that my replication has stopped working and I’ve been trying to resolve 
this ever since.  

The error I’m getting when trying to set up a new replica is the error in the 
subject.  These are the last couple entries in the journal logs for the dirsrv 
service :

I changed up the host info in the log output but otherwise log is still the 
same.  

Right now, as it is, the master works, the existing replicas are working but no 
new changes are getting pushed out.  I would like to NOT rebuild the entire IPA 
infrastructure if I can avoid it to get replication back up and running so any 
help would be greatly appreciated.  

Thank you.
