Directory server - administration console, system server console fail

The server is solaris 10, with the java 1.4, and the Sun One directory server 5.2 was installed from a compressed file
System Administration Server
System Administration Console
Sun Java(TM) System Server Console
All were installed, but there's no connection to the Administration Console on port 390. Isw there any documentation available that will help to troubleshoot this? Any recommendations as to how to resolve the difficulty?

I usually get to the admin console by running /var/opt/mps/serverroot/startconsole.
Its an X application so you will need to have $DISPLAY set.

Hi,
I posted same onto wrong forum earlier hope I am in correct place :).
I have installed Sun Directory server on my Sparc box and now I am unable to start the management console. I followed some instruction on net and it say we have to refister the product using folowing command from dscc6/bin folder for installation
System SnapShot_
# ./dsccsetup initialize
DSCC Application is already registered
DSCC Agent is already registered
Choose password for Directory Service Manager:
Confirm password for Directory Service Manager:
Creating DSCC registry...
DSCC Registry has been created successfully
*and it suppose to be started on https://Ip_address:6789 but its not. Can any one please tell me how to start the admn console to manage my directory server effectively.
Note: I have already started the instance I have created during the installation using slapd-start script and its running successfully.
Thanks,
Sheeraz

This looks like a general webconsole... do I need to provide an specific URL for diretory server page ?????

Old Netscape console 4.2 not working properly with new Directory Server 5.2

After successfully installing Messaging Server 5.2 and applying patch 2, the old Netscape Console doesn't work properly, I tried running the script which is given in the link
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6734-10/index.html
which hobbles the server by creating a set of dummy jar files in order for the directory server console not making any changes on the messaging server. At first I got these messages:
Failed to install a local copy of msgadmin52.jar or one of its supporting files: not a ZIP file (END header not found)
I got the same message for these 2 files:
admserv42.jar
msgadmin52.jar
After that I made real dummy jar files using a zero-length file I created with touch and I got these messages:
class com.netscape.management.admser.AdminServer not found
After that I erased all the files created by the script and I get these messages:
failed to install a copy of admserv51.jar or one of its supporting files: null
failed to install a copy of msgadmin.jar or one of its supporting files: msgadmin52.jar not found at http://192.168.10.205:5001/
and for admserv42.jar I get the same message
Does anyone have a clue on what to do next??
thanks in advance

The thing is that the netscape console 4.5 won't work properly with messaging server 5.2, and the directory server console is not working properly for the directory server. I already know the limitations about these consoles since it is explained in the doc where the procedure of migrating from a 4.x directory server to 5.1. I

Issue with web access in view administrator console after connection server 5.5 installation.

Hi All,
I am trying to bring up my setup with ESXi 5.5 and vcenter 5.5 U2. I made a DNS server and made two 2008 R2 machines and launched vcentre and connection manager on them.
After installing connection server 5.5, I am unable to open the web UI by clicking "view administrator console" icon on my desktop! I installed proper certificated and iis module too and confirmed that my https certificate is properly working. (snapshot attached, filename - snapshot_view_webpage.jpeg)
I google for the possible error and tried below mentioned links but none of them worked.
1.)    http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2004759
Corrected this error but still system is in same shape and i am unable to get the console's admin webpage.
2.)    http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2001277
In this method, my admin folder didn't got recreated as the service restart got stuck for a long time and throws error that service restart got time out!!(snapshot attached)
Can some one please help me to move forward. Please let me know if you need more information from my end.
Thanks,
Jeevan

Since the policy AKS is top in sequence under service selection rule so it should hit for sure. As you wrote that even after disabling the default device admin, then also request is hitting the same and restarting the ACS services resolved the issue. The symptoms of your issue are exactly same as stated in this defect.
CSCuo93378    Certain browsers cause ACS database corruption
Due to this issue we have seen cases where request hits the disable and default policies without any reason. Actually accessing ACS via chrome mess around with all the operators in conditions.
The only workaround is to access all the rules and conditions in supported browser. Ensure all the operators are correct, save the changes and restart the ACS services.
The issue seems to be fixed in ACS 5.5 patch 5

Unable to create the Directory Server entry on the LDAP Console

When I try to create the connection with the Directory Server I get the following message:
Could not contact the DSCC agent on <server>. Use the command cacaoadm to check that the DSCC agent is installed and running on port 11162.
I found a bug related to this issue and installed the patch 123893-15. I restarted the cacaoadm and the console:

And as you can see it is running on that port. What else needs to be done ?
Thanks!

Well... this ALMOST worked. I got closer. I found out there are three cacaoadm deamons on the machine, so, I started the correct one at this time:
[server1]/opt/myuser> ps -ef | grep cacao
root 17773 1 0 Jun 12 ? 0:02 /usr/lib/cacao/lib/tools/launch -w /var/cacao/instances/default -L 16384 -P /va
myusermx 22756 20845 0 10:06:14 pts/4 0:00 grep cacao
So, I stopped the old one:
root@server1 # cd /usr/sbin
root@server1 # ./cacaoadm stop
root@server1 # ps -ef |grep cacao
root 23393 23045 0 10:16:20 pts/4 0:00 grep cacao
root@server1 #
Then I changed to the location of the correct one
cd /opt/myuser/sunoneldap/dsee6/cacao_2/usr/sbin/
[server1]/opt/myuser/sunoneldap/dsee6/cacao_2/usr/sbin> ./cacaoadm set-param network-bind-address=<my_ip>
[server1]/opt/myuser/sunoneldap/dsee6/cacao_2/usr/sbin> ./cacaoadm start
[server1]/opt/myuser/sunoneldap/dsee6/cacao_2/usr/sbin> ./cacaoadm status
default instance is DISABLED at system startup.
Current retries count : 0/4
Processes:
23755
Uptime: 0 day(s), 0:0
[server1]/opt/myuser/sunoneldap/dsee6/cacao_2/usr/sbin> ps -ef | grep cacao

myusermx 23918 20845 0 10:18:22 pts/4 0:00 grep cacao
So, I went back to the console, at this time it let me thru the step to accept the certificate, I did click next and an exception was threw. I copied it, but I lost it. After that, I wasn't able to get to the same point again, I am back to the old message that it can't contact the cacaoadm....
Any other inputs?

Directory Server Console is slow

When I try to connect to Directory Server 5.1 with the console (same machine), it is ridiculously slow to respond. The machine's performance overall is fine, but console takes several minutes to respond to each mouse click.

Greg,
Sometimes reverse lookups pose a problem if not all of the clients are in DNS.
Check the attribute "nsadminaccesshosts" of the following dn: "cn=configuration, cn=admin-serv-<host>, cn=Netscape Administration Server, cn=Server Group, cn=<hostname>, ou=<administration-domain>, o=NetscapeRoot"
Per default it gets set to "*.<your_domain>".
Try to remove the value of this attribute. Does this improve the performance (adminserver must be restarted)?
If you have security concerns doing this, you can still restrict access to the administration server by specifying the IP-addresses (attribute: "nsadminaccessaddresses").
Regards,
Jakob.

The WSUS administration console was unable to connect to the WSUS Server via the remote API. (Server 2k8)

I have installed a new server for WSUS on Server 2k8, This is a stand alone server on Internet No client system is connected on this server as I have to copy these updates to my LAN which never connects to internet. (Previously I was using server 2k3. for
online & server 2008 on my LAN , now I have changed the server for Online)
Wsus has finished the synchronization & downloaded updates of around 67GB & its downloading more updates. The server shows me some updates are waiting to approved. but when I click the link for those updates I get following error message.
error code is as follows -
The WSUS administration console was unable to connect to the WSUS Server via the remote API.

Hi Sagar,
First, please check if the RAM is exhausted. When there is not enough RAM, this issue may occurs.
Please try to run iisreset on the WSUS server, then try to reconnect.
Also, please try to run the server cleanup wizard to remove the unused update.
Best Regards.

Unable to Start/Stop Directory server from console

We have two Directory Server 5.2 installations with both running as masters with replication between them. One of them was installed with the admin server and the other without. On the one that was installed without the admin server we added it afterwards.
We now find that on the one that had the admin server installed after the directory server that we cannot start/stop the directory server from the server console nor can we view or access backups or logs from the console. The system does however create the log and backup files and we can start/stop it from the command line.
I read in a post somewhere that the admin server can be created with a different user from the directory server or with the same username but a different domain and wondered if that was the problem but have looked through the configuration files on both machines and haven't managed to spot a discrepancy.
Does anyone have any ideas where and what to check?
Thanks in advance.
Peter

Ah, I wouldn't have recognized this scenario if you didn't report the scrozzled user name. The "access denied" error happens for the simple reason that 'IAyjcJlYKL' is not a valid user in your domain. Fancy that. If you look in your config.xml for the "node-manager-username" element, you may find the value is encrypted, and probably is 'IAyjcJlYKL'.
It might be best if you filed a support case for this. I can make some guesses about what you should do, but it's just a guess. In any case, if you try fixing something, make a backup of the file first.
The two things you can try doing are (backup the files and shut down everything first):
* Edit the nm_password.properties file, replacing the one "hashed" line with two lines, setting the "username" property and the "password" property, both in cleartext. When the nodemanager starts up, it will replace those two lines with the "hashed" value.
* Edit the config.xml file, replacing the values in the "node-manager-username" and "node-manager-password-encrypted" elements with their cleartext versions.
Then start up the nodemanager and server.
I'm familiar with this because I saw this happen, and I'm trying to remember the strange thing we had to do. I worked this out with BEA support a while ago. If it helps, my case number was #796710.

Extend Directory Server Client Console

Hello there:
Just a tricky question.
Is there any way of extending the (Java) Graphic User Interface of the Sun One Directory Server (5.2) console?
I dunno even if this part is open source or not.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Tifae,
It's kinda difficult to tell you the exact problem from your description. Do you get any errors about missing some entries under o=netscaperoot while starting the console? Alternatively, could you try using a different console to access the administration server for your existing installation? Just install another DS instance and use that console to access this admin server.

hi,
I am using EM Grid Control and Weblogic Server is added in the Middleware Targets...when I click on "Weblogic Server Administration Console" to open the Admin Server console it directs me to old IP address in the browser and console does not open...it goes on old IP address...
it gets open when I put the Ip address myself in the browser like:
https://10.254.166.141:7102/conole
it gets open there...means that server is okay and working properly...
I have seen the logs and it is giving the following message:
<<anonymous>><BEA-220103> <Async web service support is not fully configured. The async response web
service /AsyncResponseServiceSoap12 for this server was not fully deployed because the JMS reliability queue was not

any help will be appreciated...
thanx
Edited by: user13672598 on May 23, 2011 4:55 AM

Hi,
Can you check the EM configuration whenther it has updated the changes made by you i.e. the ip address.
Can you try rebooting the EM application,as this seems to be that the EM has not the changes reflected to it's configuration.
Hope this helps

Can't access my Directory Server using the Console installed on a machine

I too am having problems accessing Directory server from Netscape Console installed on Winxp.
If I try to open Directory server it doesn't give any error. No windows nothing.
If I try th same from the machine on which it is installed everything is fine. What is strange is that it did open a couple of times. But at the same time I can open the admin server, Netscape Messaging server from the xp box. Searching all over for a solution. Any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Config details:
iDS4.13, iMS 5.0, running on Sol 8 box

Weblogic Server not visible in Administration Console

Hello,
Forgive me if this is the incorrect location for this question but I could not find a relevant group to post this issue relating to the Administration Console, as it APPEARS.
We have a three node Weblogic 8.1 SP3 cluster in our environment and the issue we are facing is that one of the three Weblogic Servers (the other two have no issue) is not displaying any information about that server in the admin console (i.e. in "Monitoring"-> active thread queues, connections, performance stats etc. are not displayed). However, the BeaSVC service is running on that server and the server IS serving requests, as confirmed by the weblogic and application logs. It is as if the admin server cannot communicate or thinks the server is in a 'down' state, hence the behavior of not seeing the threads on the server.
Any suggestions, thoughts or ideas in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated!
Many Thanks and Regards,
-Nader

Hello Nadar,
Tell me how are you starting server in the cluster, through nodemanager or commnadline.

Error while shutting down 'Admin Server' from administration console

hi,
When I try to shutdown admin server from administration console(Weblogic server>Control>Shut Down...) I get this error:
No Machine associated with server AdminServer. Please associate a machine to this weblogic server using weblogic console first.
Not able to understand what this means....
thanks

Read up on Node Manager - a outside-of-WLS-process that can start/stop WebLogic on your OS instance. Node Manager uses the "machine" concept.

Can Directory Server Console 5.1 run on Windows XP?

Directory Server 5.1 is not supported on Windows XP.
Does the Directory Server Console run on Windows XP? As far as I know is it just a Java Application and should be OS independent.
Thx,
Ingo Czaja

Yes, it does. Just download directory server for windows and install only the console.
Bye
