Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with record name n`.

When starting Server Preferences, I receive a window with the following text:Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with record name n`. There may be an error with the Open Directory Service.
This started to occur after I used the command changeip to change the ip of the service.
I've tried (Re)starting Open Directory Service, but that doesn't resolve it.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this error? I'd like to be able to user Server Preferences again!

One of our servers (10.6.8) that had been running for months suddenly started generating that error message when trying to access Server Preferences. Workgroup Manager, which seems to use the same login information, accessed just fine. We tried deleting access information in Keychain, to no avail. What finally worked for US was:
- Via Server Admin, (in Open Directory > Settings > General) change the Role: Open Directory from Master to Standalone
- This (for us) then restored access to Server Prefs
- Use Server Admin to change the Role back to Master
Warnings - 1) backup first 2) you will have to reinstall the master password, and 3) ALL accounts were lost and had to be recreated.

Has anyone encounter this "unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3"?

Install and updated the Macmini server to 10.6.5. It working fine until try to access the Server Preferences and error message "unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with the record name **." Looking at the logs and has servermgr_accounts got error 5203 trying to auth to local LDAP node. Has anyone found solution for this problem?
Thanks
Luis

Thank you for responding. This is what we are using in a small company a Cisco Switcher, and don't have a router.
If you're getting connections off of the network out to the Internet, then yes, there is a router involved. Somewhere.
MacMini server I have an IP address of 169.254.xxx.xx, before IP address was 192.254.xxx.xx.
That IP address implies that the box isn't getting an IP address from a DHCP server; that's the self-assigned block. (Officially, these addresses are in the Automatic Private Address Configuration Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) IANA reserved range.)
Which implies that at least two problems lurk.
Mac OS X Server must have a static IP address. Not DHCP-assigned dynamic addresses.
And a DHCP server isn't answering the IP address requests. (Well, not unless the DHCP server is passing out addresses in the self-assigned block, and that wouldn't likely be considered best-practice. More likely an IP address from a DHCP address pool allocated within a subnet somewhere in the 10.0.0.0/8 or 172.16.0.0/12 or (less desirably) 192.168.0.0/16 private blocks.
The Firewall is not turned on. Its purpose is for guest to access files, without deleting or modifying it.
When you're debugging problems, simplify. Divide the problem. With network services, test the lowest levels of the stack. Then work your way up the stack; toward higher-level services and mechanisms. Then add more parts and pieces, and DHCP and related.
IP hosts operating at 169.254.0.0/16 addresses (for longer than it takes to get an IP address from DHCP) usually implies that the network configuration is invalid or the DHCP server is not working.
I did not expect that Open Directory would be a big problem.
If DNS services or IP routing is misconfigured, then the whole rest of the stack will be unstable at best. The configuration order (and debugging order) involves functional IP networking and hardware, first and foremost. Then having functional DNS. Then Open Directory and then Kerberos. Then the rest of the stack.

Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3 query

Hi,
I've seen a number of threads on here about the above message, but most are answered/archived, so no replies are allowed.
I managed to set up the Mac Mini server and get a VPN up and running quite successfully, however the upload speed was incredibly slow (especially given what the ISP advertises). I thought bypassing my airport extreme may help this, so I attempted to plug directly into the modem (which is a router in itself, but pretty limited). I have 5 static public IP's from my ISP, so I configured the Mac Mini to have one which I knew wasn't being used. Connection to internet all worked, but this message began appearing when I tried to go into Server Preferences (to change VPN settings)
I've read that this message often occurs in relation to static IPs, or rather the lack of. Given that I had assigned the Mac Mini to one of the static IP's, I'm not certain what the problem might have been.
Plugging the server back into the Airport Extreme, and reconfiguring the network settings for the router setup fixed the issue, and I was able to access Server Prefs again.
My knowledge in this area isn't all that vast, so I'm sort of learning as I go, so please be as plain and simple as you can - thanks a lot!

Unable to set node credentials...

I have setup the server as an OD master, and up until now it hasn't had problems binding, although I haven't been able to get any users to authenticate for any services, other than my local admin account.
I haven't made any changes, but now when opening ServerPrefs, I get the following error:
"Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with the record name server.mydomain.com$ There may be a problem with the Open Directory service."
Any ideas where I went wrong?

It isn't something that a patch is going to cure.
I believe it does have something to do with the network and probably therefore the ip address / naming as the authentication does seem to be tied to the network location.
I've managed to move things on a little in that I have bound user accounts on other machines such that when someone logs onto their laptop it will tell them they have an account on the server and provide a logon after which their account is bound and (I think) marked as 'managed' in their Preferences | Accounts. This provides additional sections in iCal and Address Book although these don't work. The only person who can log into the web stuff such as the wiki is the server admin and I still can't access the Server Preferences or authenticate the Server Admin so can't make much in the way of changes.
I've submitted my application to Apple for support using the card provided with the Mac Mini. This was last Thursday and I've not yet received confirmation that this is live. As soon as it is I'll be having a long conversation with Apple Support.
I sort of sympathise with Apple as the server is clearly at least an order of magnitude more complicated than the admin involved with just a desktop. Having said this, however, they do need to get this sort of thing sorted by making it slicker, providing more online support for these problems if they have any aspirations towards the smaller office or even home environment which don't have dedicated IT support staff.

Unable to set parent context for this record.

Has anyone seen this error when doing an import? In my case I was doing an import to the Opportunity Product record.
the full error message is
Unable to set parent context for this record. Please make sure that the parent record is valid and you have permission to modify the parent record.
I was attempting to populate one field on the record with data.

Hi,
Was there a resolution to this that you found, cause it's driving me crazy.
We've resorted to manually created a product in OnDemand with an EUI and exported it but we can't reimport it to overwrite it as we get the same error message "Unable to set parent context for this record"
The opty and the product both exist as they got manually created, although when you export them there are now 2 of them (I see this in reporting as well????)
Besides the Opty-Product External ID what else is required to do an import to overwrite?
regards
Alex

Using OS7 I am unable to set up iCloud but was able to do so with the earlier OS

I am using OS 7 on my iphone 4s and iPad 2 an am unable to set up icloud for the Find Me App. I am redirected to the icloud section of settings to sign in but there is no place to do so.

Are you using mobile Safari on the iphone to log into icloud.com? If so, you can't access icloud.com with mobile safari.
As for icloud. Check Settings>icloud. Are you logged into the right icloud account? If so, on the same page, turn on Find My iPhone, if that's what you want to do.
If what you mean is that the Find My iPhone app doesn't let you log into icloud, then you must not be using the right ID.

Unable to set email address for user MySite in SharePoint2013

Hi,
I've a SharePoint Ent farm with a MySite Host Site Collection created. Under that, I've got some users having their own MySites.
Now, the problem is, I'm unable to get the link for editing the user's email address after logging in to the MySite under the credentials of the particular user.
Can anybody please suggest. Is this field at all editable?
Thanks,
Arnab

Hi John,
Elaborating...
I've created a MySite Host Site Collection programmatically, say, http://test.mysitehost.local/.
Under the same I'm creating user mysites (through SharePoint2013 Object model), say, http://test.mysitehost.local/personal/user1. (for my case "personal" is the managed path). While creating the user mysites, I'm not passing any value for the email
address of the user.
Now, my question is, can I set the email address of the user from MS native portal or through powershell?
Please note, I'm using SharePoint2013 Server.
Thanks in advance,
Arnab

Unable to set preferred credential for host with virtual host/IP

I have installed agent on multiple hosts. For the host which has virtual IPs, I am not able to set preferred credentials or run OS commands. On other nodes, everything is fine
Please advice
Thanks

For agent i'm using 'Local System' and for preferred credentials i'm using <Domain>\<Users>. This is working fine on all other hosts but on Cluster Node its failing.
Oh yes, agent is UP.

Unable to set default program for .pdf

CURRENT PROBLEM:
As show in print screen, when i attempt to set default program nth happens at all. The only way i can open any .pdf file now is by 1st opening adobe reader 9 and select the .pdf file manually
INITIAL STAGE OF PROBLEM:
Problem started after upgrading to windows 7 from vista. Windows 7 is able to recognise adobe reader 8 as a valid default program since it is in windows.old. Thus the default for .pdf is adobe reader 8 (it was installed in vista).
Subsequently, installing adobe reader 9 isof no use as it will be ignored and windows 7 will only continue to use adobe reader 8 as the default reader when i try to open a .pdf file, unless if i manually opened adobe reader 9 and selected a .pdf file manaually
However, I am unable to uninstall adobe reader 8 as the "program and feature" can only identify adobe reader 9 and does not think that adobe reader 8 exists.
ATTEMPTs TO SOLVE:
Thus, I removed windows.old by using the disk cleanup. However, I am still unable to set adobe reader 9 as the default reader. Instead, .pdf are no longer accessible/"open-able" unless I 1st opened adobe reader 9 and then selected a .pdf manaually.
I've attempted reinstalling and restarting comps etc, they dun seem to help. I suspect the OS is now only able to recognise adobe reader 8 from windows.old as a valid program directory due to some registry issues since it was initally set as the default when i 1st upgraded the OS. Now that adobe reader 8 is removed, there might be some corrupted registry somewhere that needs to be set right again?
Really need help with this. Thanks a million.

Thanks guys for showing interest in helping.
As you guys can see, there's no adobe reader when u expand. Also, I already browsed the reader just in case too. Thus expanding doesnt help. =(
Also, I cant seem to find the "file type" tab in folder options

206 unable to set alert only for certain group

Hi,
is it a symbian unwanted feature that user is unable to set Nokia 206
profile to alert for certain group (even though this kind of functionality is
available on this phone)?
To be more precise user is able to set profile to alert only for certain
group but this setting has no effect (phone rebooted, groups recreated, etc. no effect)
This feature has been available and workin in previous Nokia phones
since last decace - is it a software quality issue or what.
Best regards,
Hez

It is the Application Pool account making the query to retrieve the groups, so you would need to establish a trust from Domain B -> A.

Unable to set search context for AD resource

Hi,
I am unable to set a search context into my AD resource (IdM 8.1 patch 9, AD gateway).
When I traced the gateway - I found it completely ignores the context filter values I defined.
Anyone has solution?
R.

Hi,
I am not talking about a query but about a regular AD resource configuration - so there is no code to provide.
Try putting a context in AD resource (to search for specific type of users for example) and see if it works.

Unable to set default date for Date Picker item using Auto Row Processing

Okay, I have searched through the forum for an answer, and have not found a thing to account for my problem.
First, does anyone know if using Auto Row Processing has problems updating an item/field in a record where the Source is defined as Database Column if the 'Display As' is defined as 'Date Picker (MM/DD/YYYY)'?
I ask this only because I found out the hard way that Auto Row Processing does NOT fetch the value for an item where the field is defined as TIMESTAMP in the database.
My problem is as follows: I have a form that will CREATE a new record, allowing the user to select dates from Date Pickers, text from Select Lists, and entering in text into a Textarea item. The information is saved using a standard (created through the Auto Row Processing wizared) CREATE page level button. After the record is created the user is able to go into it and update the information. At that time, or later, they will click on one of two buttons, 'ACCEPT' or 'DECLINE'. These are Item level buttons, which set the REQUEST value to 'APPLY' (Accept) and 'UPDATE' (Decline). The Accept button executes a Process that changes the Status Code from 'Initiated' to 'Accepted', and sets the Declined_Accepted_Date to SYSDATE, then another Process SAVEs the record. The Declined button runs a Process that changes the Status Code from 'Initiated' to 'Declined', and sets the Declined_Accepted_Date to SYSDATE, then another Process SAVEs the record.
However, even though the Status Code field is updated in the database record in both Accepted and Declined processing, the Declined_Accepted_Date field remains NULL in the database record (by looking at the records via SQL Developer). WHY??? I looked at the Session State values for both the Status Code and the Declined_Accepted_Date fields and saw that the fields (items) had the expected values after the process that SAVEs the record.
The following is the code from the Accept button Page Process Source/Process:
BEGIN
:P205_STATUS_CD := 'A';
:P205_REF_DECLINE_ACCEPT_DT := SYSDATE;
END;
As can be seen, the Status Code and Declined_Accepted_Date items are set one right after the other.
As an aside, just what is the difference between Temporary Session State vs Permanent Session State? And what is the sequence of events to differentiate the two?

Here's yet another thing that I just looked into, further information...
One other difference between the date field I am having problems with (Accepted_Declined_Date), and other dates (with Date Pickers) in the record is that the Accepted_Declined_Date never gets displayed until after it is set with a default date when the Accept and Decline buttons are pressed.
One of the other dates that works, the Received Date, is able to write a default date to the record that is never typed into the box or selected from the calendar. That date is placed into the box via a Post Calculation Computation in the Source, which I set up as: NVL(:P205_REF_RECEIVED_DT,TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MM/DD/YYYY'))
However, I do remember actually trying this also with the Accepted_Declined_Date, and setting the Post Calculation Computation did not work for the Accept_Decline_Date. Could this be because the Accept_Decline_Date is never rendered until the Status Code is set to Declined (in other words, there is no need to display the date and allow the user to change it until the record is actually declined)???
The control of the displaying (rendering) of the date is set via the Conditions / Condition Type: Value of Item in Expression 1 = Expression 2
Expression 1 = P205_STATUS_CD and Expression 2 = L
Does this shed any light???
