Lion Server Profile Manager Configuration

Hi Guys,
Currently have been testing Lion Server and Profile Manager Configuration.
So Far Have setup
Lion with Server App and Server Admin Tools
Configured Open Directory Master and enabled SSL on LDAP
Once Configured OD has created a CA Certificate can use for Profile Manager
Have Enabled in Server.app Web and Profile manager
In SSL Certificate Configuration have set CA Certificate for Web and Enabled Apple push notifications with my apple ID
In Profile Manager Enabled Device Management and Enabled Sign configuration profiles and selected CA Open Directory Certificate Created when setting up OD Master.
On Server Originally could install Trust Profile OK and Enroll Server OK with no issues, but on any other 10.7 Devices could install Trust Profile OK but would always say unsigned and Enroll would never work or just hang.
Now Since Played around with settings on 10.7 Server can no longer enroll but trust OK.
Questions have is
For SSL and Profile Manager to work properly as well as Certificates do you require to purchase a proper SSL Certificate or can we use the OD Master Certificate that gets created. All we are testing is on the Local LAN so don't want to get a SSL certificate from the internet.
Also why cannot 10.7 clients trust profile and enroll Devices Properly? How do I get this working properly?
Any ideas?
Regards,
Shane

Not sure if its that as finally got Lion Server working on a VM setup so network shouldn't be an issue...
Had 1 OSX Lion Server VM and 1 OSX Lion Client VM and OSX Lion Server VM gets profile and enrolls device fine but again OSX client doesn't get enroll just sits again at installing..... even if set keychain to trust and make trust profile verified..
any other ideas? I think need to somehow get the server to trust trust profile by default instead of going to keychain all the time.

Did you get this to work in an ESXI envrionment? If so, which version are you running?

    ProfileManager[29069]: Failed to delete '/var/devicemgr/ServiceData/Data/tmp'. No such file or directory - /var/devicemgr/ServiceData/Data/tmp
    I'm looking for a solution that doesn't involve reinstalling Mountain Lion if that is at all possible. It seems to me like it should, as that's not so much a solution as just starting over. If you need more from Console, just let me know. Also, I have tried all the threads that relate to restarting, rebooting, or reconfiguring Device Manager and none of them work; at the end I still get the message "No such file or directory."
    Thanks for the help!

    Finally figured the problem out on my own. Thank you to the apple support community for all your help. Full story, I installed OSX Server and then changed the Service Data location to an external hard drive. After that the Profile Manager immediately stopped working. Several reinstallations later and still not working. The problem was not even a little related to /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/share/devicemgr/backend/wipeDB .sh, which is the answer everyone else on the internet was giving. The problem was that Profile Manager was no longer installed/installing for whatever reason. So, I went in and reinstalled just Profile Manager from the Server.app and now everything is working great. If things stop working I'll update this post. This is how:
    To begin, delete /private/var/devicemgr. This file is created during the install and if it already exists, the install won't work.
    Open terminal and copy sudo /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/System/Library/ServerSetup/CommonE xtras/80-devicemgrcommon.sh
    That is all I had to do and Profile Manager works great for me now. Hope this helps someone.

  • Lion Server Profile Management error reading settings

    After starting up Lion Server the profile management pane showed an error. It is also not possible to login via de browser to the profile manager. How can I fix this? Using the default httpd.conf file did not help.
    This is one of the many problems I have with Lion server that does not work as expected. So if someone has a solution to remove all profile settings from my client MBP than I can try to revert back to Lion on my server also.
    I hope this question is also read by someone of apple as this is not the quality I expected from apple. It lacks decent documentation and the setup of Portable Home Users is not possible. I thought apple product were self explaining and intuitive. This reminds me of the old Windows days: sitting days to figure it out and use a lot of terminal commands.

    Did you ever find a resolution? If not then this might help Server: An error with code -1 occurred while setting up Device Management

  • How to write .CSV file to import device placeholder into Lion Server Profile Manager?

    I'm now using Mac Mini with Lion Server (10.7.4). I've already setup a server with Profile Manager to manage some iOS devices.
    Now I need to add many devices into Profile Manager. From some articles, (for example http://my.safaribooksonline.com/book/-/9780132778879/chapter-4dot-managing-accou nts/ch04lev1sec3), I found that I can use .CSV file to import many device placeholders at a time. So I create a .CSV file "devices.csv" with the content as the following:
    iPhone001,12345ABCD12,,,
    Then I import this file to "Devices" in Profile Manager, but in vain. It says that the placeholder is invalid.
    If there's any one could provide some exemples? Thanks a lot.

    Hi Nien-Yi Ho,
    A little late, but perhaps someone else can benefit ...
    The way I did this, is:
    - create an empty Excel spreadsheet
    - add 5 headers in the first row: DeviceName, SerialNumber, IMEI, MEID, UDID
    - in the next rows add your devices and specs (for the iPhones and iPads I only added DeviceName, SerialNumber and IMEI specs)
    - IMPORTANT: save the file as a Windows CSV file.
    If you import the CSV file now, all should go well.

  • HT200088 Error Reading Settings in Lion Server Profile Manager

    Whenever I try to use Profile Manager in Lion Server, it says "Error Reading Settings". Can anybody help?

    I did a clean install of Lion/Lion Server, but I ran ino the same problem too with "Error Reading Settings" for both the profile manager and the wiki.
    INVESTIGATION: I checked to see if the postgres database (which I presumed was were the settings were being read from).
    # sudo serveradmin fullstatus postgres
    postgres:dataDirHasBeenInitialized = yes
    postgres:PG_VERSION = "9.0.4"
    postgres:dataDir = "/var/pgsql"
    postgres:postgresIsResponding = no     # !!! why isn't it responding???
    postgres:dataDirIsDirectory = yes
    postgres:PGserverVersion = 0
    postgres:dataDirExists = yes
    postgres:setStateVersion = 1
    postgres:state = "RUNNING"
    PROBLEM: The postgres service hadn't been started properly; I found this by doing the following:
    # sudo serveradmin stop postgres
    postgres:state = "STOPPED"
    # sudo serveradmin start postgres
    postgres:error = "CANNOT_START_SERVICE_TIMEOUT_ERR"
    FIX: The postgres service couldn't create the log file because it didn't have permission. I did this to fix it, then simply restarted it and all was well:
    # sudo chmod 777 /Library/Logs/
    # sudo serveradmin start postgres
    postgres:state = "RUNNING"
    I hope this helps someone.

  • How to use Lion Server Profile Manager to require password after screensaver

    Our Company is upgrading to Lion server. One of our requirments for network security is to require a password to wake the computer from sleep or screensaver. In SL Server you would add a key to the com.apple.screensaver entery in workgroup manager.
    In Profile Manager in Lion server there is a custom setting section and I have tried adding a key there but it does not seem to work. Can anyone offer some help on how to put the require password to wake from sleep or screensaver in Profile Manager so the setting gets pushed out?

    Hi CodyCodes,
    Just discovered the same issue today as well.  Further complicating things, the screensaver timeout setting in Login Window doesn't apply to Profile Manager clients no matter what the setting.  This was reproduced and confirmed by the Apple Tech I was working with.  He's submitted the bug to their engineering staff.  I requested that he ask them why there is no setting for password on sleep or screensaver.  Hopefully this is resolved soon, as this feature is 99% of the reason we're implementing Profile Manager to begin with.
    Cheers

    Pretty much everything boiled down to DNS, firewalls and ports.  Unfortunately, I was never able to acertain which of the three items were causing this problem because we have a separate group who manages the network and firewall (plus a separate security team).  If I recall, once they focused on what it was I was trying to accomplish, most of the problems "magically" went away. 
    Is your reverse DNS working the way it's supposed to?  Ex:
    yourserver:~ login$ hostname
    yourserver.yourdomainname
    yourserver:~ login$ host yourserver.yourdomainname
    yourserver.yourdomainname has address 10.x.x.x
    yourserver:~ login$ host 10.x.x.x
    3.34.2.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer yourserver.yourdomainname

  • Mountain Lion Server Profile Manager error

    I recently setup a Mountain Lion server (10.8.2) to manage multiple ipads and Macs with Profile Manager in a PC oriented Active Directory environment.
    I setup an SSL certificate and bound to the organization's active directory (with Directory Utility) and that all works fine.
    We are now simply trying to assign the rights to individual users to use Profile Manager and running into trouble.
    Using the Server app, we click on a user (or group) and then go to assign rights (with the gear menu).
    The list of items to assign is supposed to come up.
    Instead the list never comes up.
    Can anyone shed any light on what we have to do?

    What are you trying to do
    Assign what users can use the profile managers web interface
    or restrict what users can and can't have devices registered to their name in profile manager

  • Mountain Lion Server Profile Manager not accessible externally

    What do I need to be checking if I can't access our Mountain Lion server's Profile Manager externally.  From a test iPad on a carrier's 3G network, I get a "server not found" error when using http://fqdn/.  I can bring up the server page if I use https://publicipaddress. but not https://publicipaddress/profilemanager.  Apple tried accessing the server with the same findings.  We're a state agency behind tight firewall and security and we're told that all Profile manager needed ports are open...  Thanks.

  • Lion Server Profile Manager - Windows Enviroment

    My company needs to be able to manage mobile devices, specifically iPhones and iPads, that connect to our corporate MS Exchange server. We are looking at mobile device management solutions to manage password policy, software restrictions, device registrations, etc., and I have come across the built in Profile Manager in Lion Server. Is it possible to introduce or integrate a Lion Server into our existing Active Directory environment for the purposes of mobile device management or are we better off on finding another third party solution?

  • Access Mac Mini Server (profile management) through reverse proxy

    Hi,
    Newbie in Mac's world and yet trying to make it more complicated as it is.
    As we recently (last month) decided to equip our sales force with iPads, they were configured through Apple Configurator tool running on a dedicated Mac Mini Mountain Lion.
    Now, I'd be keen in moving this configuration to the Profile Manager, part of the OSx Server plugin. So far so good.
    Problem is the following : another web server is already on the LAN using both 80 and 443 ports. So all incoming traffic on those ports was routed to this other server. As Mac Mini Server default http/s ports may not be altered, I installed a reverse proxy server (Oracle VM - Ubuntu 12.04LTS - pound), configured to deal differently traffic on those ports according to the domain name (host) of the web request (header). Each 'local' server has been allocated a domain name. Just to be clear, traffic is now routed by the WAN/LAN router, for those ports, towards the reverse proxy, configured to reroute the traffic to the correct destination.
    So far so good, it works like a charm, except... as soon as we enter https protocol on Mac Mini Server Profile Manager.
    Access from an iDevice to the Mac Mini Server Profile Manager login page is fine, but as soon as password is confirmed, safari is pending and finally a message 'An internal serer error occured. Please try later again' appears.
    Looking to both reverse proxy system log and Mac Mini profilemanager.log files to trace the problem, the following lines are produced at this particular moment :

    I guess the '302 Found' is causing or explaining the problem.
    I agree this might not be a Mac issue, so I still knock your doors hoping some of you could at least give a hint for what to search for !
    If the pound configuration file is of interest, just ask, but this is pretty trivial, saying basically listen these protocols (http/https) on these ports (80/443) and according to Header content (check destination host) and reroute packet to LAN device (with given LAN IP address).
    As the default port(s) of the Mac Mini Web Services may not be altered (so far I know), I guess I am stuck using 80 and 443 anyway.
    Maybe should I invest time in changing my other apache server ports to some more exotic 8080 or 88 or whatever so Mac Mini Server Profile Manager default ports 80 and 443 are maintained and can be easily and directly rerouted to my Mac server without any reverse proxy along the way.
    Thanks in advance for your help

    HI All,
    i'm also using reverse proxy technique to publish my server to the internet. The ip is used by twice domains. The problem is by using the profile manager
    after login it redirects the url to the Local Area network addresse instead to the domain.
    How to configure this on OS X Server and the Profile Manager Service?

  • VPP Distribution issues with OSX Server Profile Manager

    Hi, I have a new issue with my OSX 10.9.5 Server. I use VPP to distribute apps to users devices, when I would add a new user I would send them an invitation message through /profilemanager . All was working well until recenetly , the message still arrives in the users mailbox however when you click the "sign in" link on the "receive apps and books from xxxxx" email instead of opening through the Mac App store app it now opens Safari and connects to the profile manager server , any ideas ? it never has done this before and although I thought it was a new feature or method I can not seem to resolve the issue.

    Hi if when you are redirected back to your Mac Server you enter the user name and password of the user you are trying to receive VPP apps for i.e the Open Directory credentials it will then open the App Store providing the credentials are correctly entered so it looks like an additional layer of security. The process is click on the link in the VPP invite email, this takes you to your Mac Server profile manager, log on with your OD account, App store then opens on your Mac like it used to.

    We are getting error when we are trying to configure the iPods using Profile Manager. Please let me know what is causing for this kind of error. Please see in attachment.

    We have device groups, once the device have been enrolled we then move to a pre-configured profile which sets up items such as wifi, e-mail and passcpde etc all in one go, this has had mixed results, I've now setup profile groups for each item to give us more control over only given the user what they need instead on forcing everything, this resolved my item above but more testing is needed, the main issue has been trying to pass a pre-owned device to a new user as it seems to remember the pervious user in some cases, this is why I asked about if it was possible to delete device history.

  • Can os x server Profile Manager updates iOS os and appl installation?

    I've currently use Apple configurator to push profiles, update OS and app deployment to our College ipads. Have been told to use os x server to deploy instead. After upgraded the macbook air to mountain lion and install os x server, i'm kinda wondering does the profile manager in os x server is only for pushing out profiles and assigning users to the ipads etc? Do i still need to use apple configurator to do all the updates and appl installed first then use profile manager to push profile?
    We've got quite alot of ipads need setting up and we normal use a ipad case where one usb cable connect to the laptop and charging case to deploy our apps.
