when running

./freeipa-service-password.sh <hostname> <service>

for a host that does not yet exists, it creates the host and then prompts for the [Principal alias]

when you press enter you get the error message:

 ipa: ERROR: 'krbprincipalname' is required

running the same command a 2nd time confirms the host already exists makes it run fine.
