Hello Everyone !!
I see this error notice
[20/Dec/2002:12:11:22 +0700] - PR_Accept() failed, error -5987 (Invalid function argument.)
[20/Dec/2002:12:11:33 +0700] - PR_Accept() failed, error -5987 (Invalid function argument.)
[20/Dec/2002:12:11:33 +0700] - PR_Accept() failed, error -5987 (Invalid function argument.)
on my error log files .
I used Netscape Directory ver 4.16 on Redhat 6.2 on x86 platform.
Can you tell me what the errors mean ?
Thank alot
Trung

Usually means you are running out of system resources e.g. not enough file descriptors, not enough TCP connections. Please review your kernel tuning parameters to see about increasing them.

PR_Accept() failed, error -5971 (Process open FD table is full.)

I am working on a web app which uses the SunONE directory server for
some authorization. Sometimes it happens that the webserver just hangs
with no errors in the webserver log. In the slapd error logs I do see
the following exceptions :
PR_Accept() failed, error -5971 (Process open FD table is full.)
I am not sure why is this happening? What could be the problem? I am
assuming FD means the file descriptor? One bug we found in the app is
that it tries to add a new user in the LDAP even if its there. I do get
"add value to attribute type nsRoleDN in entry .....: duplicate value"
exceptions, but thought its harmless. Could this exception be causing
something?

Hi,
I had exactly the same error message. I did not find the cause of this after spending a lot of time looking around. I only know it is a file descriptor table problem. The sun one directory server access log, however, did not have the number of file descriptors count reached maximum. I am very much puzzled by this. Did you find out why yet?

I suggest you try the Directory Server forum.

PR_Accept() failed, error -5971

We have a iPlanet 5.1 sp3 directory server.
There are very few active users. However it recently failed with the error: "PR_Accept() failed, error -5971"
What causes this?
How does the DS protect itself from misbehaving clients.. I am mystified how the table of 4096 FDs the UNIX system has gets filled up. Surely the DS is freeing them up!

Hello,
Did anyone reply to you about this? I have almost the same problem:
PR_Accept() failed, error -5974 (Insufficient system resources.)
Thanks, Firdaus

PR_ACCEPT() failed -5987 and directory start

Hello,
I'm working on Solaris 2.8 and Directory Server 4.12.
Immediately after directory start, I found the following message in errors log file : PR_ACCEPT() failed -5987. I thought this message was a misreported error, and the real error should be PR_ACCEPT() failed 5971 (process open FD table is full).
ulimit -aH launched on my server returns 8092 for the maxdescriptors value; this parameter is set on 4096 for the Directory Server.
Could it be possible that immediately after start that this value is reached? Does anybody have an other explication?
Thanks for your responses,
Regards,
Thomas

PR_Accept() failed, error -5974 (Insufficient system resources.)

How can I go about determining exactly which resource was insufficient? Or has anyone encountered this and has an idea of typical reasons?
With about 1000 connections this morning, I saw this in the log:
PR_Accept() failed, error -5974 (Insufficient system resources.)
Our setup:
iPlanet Directory Server 5.1
HPUX platform - 6 gigs ram, dual 100mb nics, plenty of disc space.

Thanks Gary. I was going to set the ulimit and the hard and soft limits on the OS. I had done this before on a Solaris system, but with HP, I'm not sure where the equivalent of /etc/system is. I may have to check with our HP guys.
BTW, here's the output of idsktune. I don't see any warnings for only 64 threads being available. We are going to try 5.2 Patch 4, but we cannot apply it in this environment yet -- still doing a POC. Thanks!

Hi!
To increase the FDs available for DS, edit the Configuration --> Performance Settings and increase the no. of FDs available for DS. please check if you havent done this.
I faced the similar problem. Increased the system limit(/etc/system) and DS setting, but was still recieving the error message time to time, which disappears automatically, when FDs get freed. The server is quite a busy LDAP server.
Can someone comment how can i see the actual Fd utilisation on a Solaris 8 system.
I have been checking like:
ls -l /procs/fd | wc -l
and by:
ls -l /procs/pid-of-slapd/fd | wc -l
But always find the Fds in use to be quite lesser than the limit specified 4096.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!

Directory Scan and Volume scan failed on Techtool -- next steps?

I've been having serious problems with this MB pro, bought May 07, recently. There is a repetitive sound coming from the harddrive that freezes the computer while various processes are happening. The computer also takes a long time to start up and then only displays a fragment of my desktop picture (the original wavey blue background shows on the rest of the display). I did an extended hardware test and found nothing; TechTool shows the Directory Scan, Surface Scan and Volume Structure tests failed.
I'm downloading the bootable TechTool Deluxe file to try to do repairs, but I'm wondering what else I should be considering? I've backed up all data, but I'm wondering if I do a clean install of the OS if I'll lose applications that are currently on the hard drive?
Thanks for your input

Noises from the hard drive are not a good sign, especially along with the other symptoms you describe. Here is a utility that may be able to give you further insight into your hard drive:
S.M.A.R.T. Utility
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/32454
You can attempt to repair the software on your hard drive with Disk Utility, Tech Tool Pro, or Disk Warrior. However, if the hard drive is failing physically, you will not be able to repair the software satisfactorily.
If by a clean install you mean an Erase and Install, you could certainly try that, but you will lose all the applications that are not included in your install disc and you will have to reinstall them separately. Here is an article on installation options:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1545?viewlocale=en_US
One other thing you may want to check is whether you might also possibly have the NVIDIA chip issue:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Do you have an external FireWire hard drive with a bootable clone? If so, you could try booting from it and see if your video distortion is still there when booted from a different drive.
Good luck!

Archive directory full. RMAN backup failed.

My archive directory went out of space due to rman issue. /tmp was 100%. I had no choice late last night but to move archive logs to another directory (/backups/arch) I changed log_archive_dest also to this location. However RMAN keeps looking at the previous archive directory. Any ideas how I acn make RMAN pick up the archives from this new location?
Oracle version : 10.2.0.4

Thank you.

Solved it. Had to use :
catalog start with '<new_directory_of_archivelogs>';

Software Updates ADR Issue: "Failed to download the update from the internet. Error = 5"

"Failed to download the update from internet. Error = 5"
The above is the error I am getting when running any ADR. The error is quite clear software updates are failing to download and Error = 5 being a permissions error its clear that the downloads are failing due to incorrect permissions applied to the download
path.
Here is the last bit of my ruleengine.log, everything above is the same except for the update trying to be downloaded of course:

Also, I do not have a patchdownloader.log anywhere, Ive checked all aforementioned locations from various sources and it just simply does not exist on my SCCM server. Here is my setup:
Server1: Primary server with all roles installed locally except the site database is on its own server. WSUS is installed locally here and DB is stored here.
Server2: SQL DB for Primary site DB
Server3: Secondary remote site running MP, DP, SUP. DB is SQL Express local.
So the SUP role was installed successfully on both server1 first and server 2 second with the site servers accounts. The SUP Synchronizes successfully and I can see a large list of updates available for use but not downloaded of course. I have set WSUS option
to store updates locally and have plenty of space at the target destination.
So here is my issue, I have been working on this issue for the better part of a week and understand the error code from the ruleengine.log to be a permissions issue. I have also proved this out but creating a test ADR with minimal updates and applied NTFS perms
to the target path for Modify with the everyone group (testing purposes only). The updates downloaded successfully. So this puts me right back to where I was, knowing its a permissions issue but not understanding what permissions are needed. Let me explain
further.
The best way to start is to show what perms I have to the target location for downloads/wsus/sup anything:
Path: \\Server1\UpdatesAndDefinitions (permissions being applied to the UpdatesAndDefinitions root folder)
SCCMAdmin (account used for most SCCM tasks except for NA) / Modify / Share and NTFS
Server1$ (primary site server) / Modify / NTFS
Everyone / read and execute / NTFS and Share
There are other system generated perms but the above three are the important ones. So hence my confusion I know that the SCCMAdmin account or the Server its self has to be accessing the target directory so why is it failing with a permissions issue?
My next step was to enable Auditing on the target path. Doing so revealed just what I thought and through me into further frustration:

Now I may not be the best I traversing through the mess of audit entry's and translating them, but from what I can see the two accounts that have the proper share and ntsf perms ive listed above are indeed the ones accessing the target location and the audit
code is success. I filter for failures and found no audits for failures whatsoever yet my downloads still fail religiously, unless of course I open myself up with the everyone group.
So next... I tried adding in the Network Service account with proper permissions, the Local Service Account, my user account, and all no go's.
Next... I remove the SUP roles from SCCM checked the logs for deinstall confirmations, and reinstalled these roles. No Go!
If anyone can assist I would be in your debt and very grateful.
Oh last note, but very important note I'm running SCCM 2012 SP1 CU4
Thanks,

I just tested with the everyone group further; I added everyone with modify for ntfs and just read only for share and downloads failed!
I then changed the share perms for everyone to change and the ntfs to read/execute and poof downloads complete! Obviously change share perms for everyone leaves me open which Id like to prevent, so finding what account is being used is crucial.
I have already tried adding all of the SCCM accounts I use and the servers themselves as change perms to share and ntfs and have not had any luck.

Disk Utility "restore" fails with "no such file or directory"

Some time back, perhaps a LONG time ago, I successfully used Disk Utility's "restore" function to "clone" my Mac OS X partition onto an external disk, before I upgraded the OS on my internal drive.
This weekend I tried to do it again, and failed on every attempt.
My first attempt was on my MacBook. At very end (the progress "bar" was all blue) it died saying that there was an error (2), "no such file or directory". I think the external drive probably isn't GUID, which would make it non-bootable, but I'd still think "restore" itself should work.
Okay, let's try my Power Mac G5, which is where it worked several releases ago. Same thing.
Okay, one more try... Booted into safe mode (in case background activity accounts for the missing file/directory), did the restore again, failed again.
I realize that SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner or other tools may be "better", but since this worked once it seems like it still should.
Any ideas?

Did you:
A. Repair the hard drive and permissions prior to cloning?
B. Erase the destination drive before cloning?
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. When the menu bar appears 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.
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.
8. Select the destination drive on the Desktop and press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. At the bottom in the Ownership and Permissions section be sure the box labeled "Ignore Permissions on this Volume" is unchecked. Verify the settings for Ownership and Permissions as follows: Owner=system with read/write; Group=admin with read/write; Other with read-only. If they are not correct then reset them.
For added precaution you can boot into safe mode before doing the clone.

"Failed to transfer due to internal error" in AC

I am running CCM 4.1(2)
I have several receptionists that use attendant console. When anyone of the receptionists log into AC call control comes up. When they try to transfer to users in the directory they all get the "Failed to transfer due to internal error" I can't find this error anywhere. I don't know how to correct this issue. Any ideas?
Thanks

I suppose that beside CCM 4.1(2) you are using AC 1.4 (1), if yes, then you need to upgrade to AC 1.4 (1) ES11 or upgrade at least to CCM 4.1(3)ES42 or CCM 4.1(3) sr3c

Internet Directory Configuration Assistant fails

I have installed 10g Infrastructure, but when the Internet Directory Configuration Assistant runs, it fails with the following error:
Output generated from configuration assistant "Internet Directory Configuration Assistant":
389
636
cn=orcladmin
asdb
infra904.superfatpc
Error occured during the previous operation. Please see the log files.oracle.ldap.oidinstall.backend.OIDCAException: The following port is not free :389
Configuration assistant "Internet Directory Configuration Assistant" failed
The ports 389 and 636 are surely free (no process holds them).
Even though the OIDCA fails, I still can log in the directory at port 389. (There's no entry in the directory at all)
In the release notes for version 9.0.4 of OracleAS, there's a section titled:
Configuration Assistant Failure on Computer without Appended Domain Name.
This is actually my case since my computer do not have the domain name appended, it's just a standardlone computer.
Oracle also exposes the solutions to workarround this issue, but it couldn't help me because my tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora are already correct.
If any one has experience with this problem before, please help me!
My computer:
P4 2.8GHz, socket 775, 1G RAM
OS: Windows Server 2003
OracleAS 9.0.4

Did the installer pre-check return any warnings? can you connect to the OID backend DB. e.g. via sqlplus? Basically this looks like a TAR you should open at metalink.
