10.6.8 Server Update Broke WebDAV

I've searched on this and seen nothing. I upgraded my SLS to 10.6.8 a couple of days ago and everything seemed to go well. However I started getting authentication problems with WebDAV. This WebDAV server has been working faultlessly for months, immediately after the upgrade we began getting authentication errors.
The Webdav access is managed by a realm and a single group has read and write access. Since the upgrade when trying to access the WebDAV it asks for your credentials and then simply asks for them again, and again, and again...
Any similar experiences or any thoughts?
When I first set up WebDAV I found it incredibly buggy. Having finally got it going it works well - then this!

Server Admin Server Updates dont install

I have a new Mac Mini Server running Server 10.6.6. that has been running just fine since initial install.
I am now having problems with the Server Updates. I am using Server Admin on a 10.6.7 client and then running the Updates from the Server Updates tab.
The first time round it seemed to start and download the updates and then stall, never completing the updates and asking to restart (it ran for 5 hours or more). Now it starts running the download and never goes any further. I have restarted the machine to try to reset whatever has got locked up to no avail.
Is there a plist or file that I need to reset/delete to make these updates got through?

We're left out in the cold, cold snow on this. We can no longer use Server Admin 10.5, or any other flavor outside of 10.6 server admin tools.
This means we can only administer 10.5.8 servers, and 10.6 servers.
10.6 installer works fine for me, but it can only administer specifically 10.6 and 10.5.8 servers.
Anyone that's a sys-admin administers multiple servers, this would be 10.4.x servers (Hopefully 10.4.11) 10.5.x servers (Sometimes if it's a "Critical" server and it's not broke, you don't mess with it. meaning leaving it at 10.5.4 because two other server updates to 10.5.5 you recently completed failed miserably) . You get the picture. Previously I kept multiple versions of Server Admin on my machine, 10.3, 10.5.3, 10.5.5, for compatibility, so now I'm dead in the water. And apple solution appears to be have multiple computer hanging around to complete this task. I'm not buying in.
they either now need to allow virtualization of 10.5 client, or get their act together with software compatibility.
Extremely disappointed, and will have to be going back to 10.5. Wonder if I can get a refund on my purchase.

[Solved] Update broke some things

Okay, I just ran pacman -Syu and among the kernel and ndiswrapper updates some important stuff got broken.
1. When I try to boot up it gets to the file systems spits out a bunch of stuff and gives me this error
/etc/rc.sysinit line 271 5915 segmentation fault /bin/mount -o remount, rw
What do i have to do to that line to let it boot normally?
2. This isnt a fatal error, just an annoyance. but in that same file on line 350 it says: /usr/bin/kbd_mod no such file or directory.
Can I delete this line?
3. and finally once again, these updates broke the wireless. When I run netcfg2 mynetwork I get a wireless association failed error.
Any help on this?

Well right now I can boot using the fallback option in grub.
Here is fstab

I did an pacman -Syu update a few days ago when I first posted this thread, installed about 18 packages. Then when I tried to boot up again, I started getting the segfault error.

Airport utility 5.3.2 update broke configuration functionality

After upgrading to the newest apple airport utility I can no longer read the configuration of any of my airports. Using an extreme and airport express.
I open the application, it shows my 2 airport networks but when I try to run any kind of configuration on them then it stalls at the 'reading configuration' screen.
This is quite a serious problem for me as this effects a work network that I need to be able to update. This is like the 3rd or 4th time something that was supposed to be an update broke functionality. Very disappointing. If someone is still on the old version, perhaps they could eMail it to me ?

Windows Explorer View, Server 2012 and WebDAV

I am using SharePoint Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012. I cannot get Windows Explorer View working from client machines on this server. These machines are Windows 8, running IE 10 (I am also having problems on my Windows 7 / IE 9 machine).
I have done everything on the client that I have read about (Trusted Site, the WebClient services, the patch mentioned in a Kb article), but to no avail.
The client machines CAN open Windows Explorer View on a SharePoint Foundation site that I have hosted on the internet, although in this instance they access the internet directly, rather than through the company network.
Therefore, I take it that my problem lies either on our SharePoint server, or somewhere in the network. The Proxy does not seem to be a problem as this is bypassed for local sites.
Somedody said for an earlier version of SharePoint that the WebDAV server role should be
disabled (which seems counter-intuitive). Does this make sense, or what else should I be looking at on either my server or in the network environment?

Thanks for the reply.
I get the standard message ("We're having a problem opening this location in File Explorer. Add this web site to your Trusted Sites list and try again"). I am not using HTTPS.
I do not think that the WebDAV is irrelevant on the server, as there are two separate things there:
Desktop Experience Feature, which installs the WebClient service to allow the server to use WebDAV, and
WebDAV Publiching Role under Common HTTP functions
Curiously, after removign the WebDAV Publishign Role, my Win7/IE9 pc (which is not logged on to my client's domain (although I access their network and use SharePoint in my browser) DOES allow Windows Explorer View.
The domain PCs do not allow it, still. They get challnged for a user name and password three times before they get the standard message. But, I did test a machine of their connecting to an internet-hosted website, and it could use Explorer View.

Server Admin | Server Updates | updated to 10.5.5 WITHOUT restart?

A curious thing. I wonder whether anyone else experienced the same, or similar…
When the update to Mac OS X Server 10.5.5 was released, very soon after its announcement, I used Server Admin | Server Updates to apply the update to my Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 (PowerPC Xserve).
I expected a restart to be required.
The update completed, but no restart was required!
Amazed, I made an Apple Remote Desktop connection to the server and found that it was reporting itself as 10.5.5. Definitely, without a restart.
I lacked confidence at that point, so I did restart the server, without being asked to.
I might also try to run the combo updater. Just to be doubly sure that the whole caboodle installed as it should have.
I wonder how it apparently got from 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 without a restart; and whether anyone else has experienced such oddities.

I don't know what you've experienced
1. Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 on G4 PowerPC XServe
2. Server Admin on my Macbook Pro identified that the remote Xserve should gain an update to 10.5.5
3. I followed Server Admin's invitation.
3. An ARD view of the remote server's display (Apple menu | About This Mac) showed:
* 10.5.5
— with no invitation to restart, no log in.
I simply connected via ARD, observed, thought, "What? 10.5.5? That's impossible. I haven't restarted".
it's factually impossible for a server to go from 10.x.y to 10.x.(y+1) without a restart.
Hence my bug report to Apple

SQL server service broker

Hi All,
I have requirement to implement SQL server service broker in SQL server 2008, please guide me for that, how and why we use for that, then have any other option to achieve.
Please give any good stuff to learn service broker.
Thanks,
Jai.

This is a very good book to learn about Service Broker:
http://www.amazon.com/Rational-Server-Service-Broker-Guides/dp/1932577270/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1418942042&sr=8-1&keywords=%22roger+wolter%22+%22service+broker%22&pebp=1418942044114
In difference from many other computer books, this is not a brick, but only 220 pages.
Also, Remus Rusanu's blog covers many important concepts with Service Broker:

Using Sun Java System App Server Update 1 with JDK1.5's XML

Hi,
I have some new code that uses new XML features from JDK 1.5,
e.g., the Validation API.
However, this code fails to run on Sun Java System App Server Update 1,
since the server uses the 'endorsed' mechanism to load outdated XML libraries.
When I remove the outdated XML JAR's from the server's 'endorsed' directory,
the server fails to start....
I would really like to keep using the new XML features....

Where are you placing your jars? I would bundle them with your application. Do not replace the system jars.
There were some package changes to avoid collisions that I believe made jswdp 1.4 and sjsas 8.1

Any difference between Sun Java System Web Server - Update 1 and update 2

Any configuration changes need to be made particularly for Sun Java System Web Server - Update 2 in the load balancing. because i face issue in load balancing with Sun Java System Web Server - Update 2 , but load balancing is working fine with Sun Java System Web Server - Update1

The mail server Update: Says it can't be installed on my OSX 10.3.9 harddr

Why wouldn't I be able to install the mail server update for OSX 10.3.9 on my harddrive which is also an OSX 10.3.9? It tells me the volume does not meet the requirements for this update! I just completed the OSX 10.3.9 update installations with no problem. The mail update installation program says: The Mail Server Update delivers overall improved reliability and is recommended for all systems running mail services on Mac OS X Server version 10.3.9.

You are running the client version of Mac OS X, and that update will only install on Mac OS X Server systems; the changes it makes are only relevant to Mac OS X Server, so you won't get any benefit out of installing it anyway.
(16342)

You cannot install Mac OS X Server Update on this volume. (10.5.6)

I hope someone can help!
I started with 10.5.5, but was having lots of problems with MobileMe. I have downloaded 10.5.6 which I have heard is more stable but it won't allow me to install it with the following error message "You cannot install Mac OS X Server Update on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update." I have then downloaded 10.5.7 which installs fine but does not fix my original problem and I know it is less stable that 10.5.6. I have tried to install 10.5.6 again but same problem. Any ideas of what I have to do to my HD to make it happen?
The main problems I am having with MobileMe is registering the computer (it wont happen), syncing (it wont happen because the computer isn't registered), and publishing iweb updates.
Thanks, J

You downloaded the wrong updater version. You downloaded an updater for OS X Server but do not have OS X Server installed, hence the error. The 10.5.6 Combo Updater is here.
You will have to provide more information about the problem you are having with MobileMe. And, you should login to your MM account online so you can post your problem in their specific forums.
Before you install a system update I suggest you see the following:
How to Install OS X Updates Successfully
A. Repair the hard drive and permissions:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
B. Make a bootable backup of your current working system:
How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
C. Important: Please read before installing
1. If you have a FireWire hard drive connected, disconnect it before installing the update unless you will boot from this drive and install the update on it. Reconnect it and turn it back on after installation is complete and you've restarted.
2. You may experience unexpected results if you have installed third-party system software modifications, or if you have modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
3. The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Downloads to update. While the installation is in progress do not use the computer.
D. Download and install update(s):
1. Use Software Update, or
2. Download standalone updater(s).

Does server update 4.0.3 require a restart?

Does it require a restart of just the server app (I'm assuming it does)? Or does the entire server need to be rebooted? I'm trying to figure out if this update can be safely installed in a production environment. I can restart the server app without affecting any users, but restarting the computer is a different story and would have to be done after hours. Thanks!

Server Update will stop services during the update process, not during the download. It will reconfigure where necessary and restart services. Check afterwards that all services have been restarted.
You don't have to restart the Mac, but give it a little time to do it's thing.
but, remember!
Backup, and backup
and lastly, backup!
