Errors & Warnings in setting up NIS Master server

Hi All,
I am setting up NIS for that first time & I am getting the following Warnings & errors when I use # /usr/sbin/ypinit -m
1) make:Warning:Don't know how to make target '/etcdir/services' current working directory /var/yp.
Where /etcdir is the substitute for /etc which I am using for DIR=/etcdir & PWDIR=/etcdir
2) make:Warning:Target 'all' not remade because of errors current working directory /var/yp.
3)***Error Code1***
make :Fatal Error : Command failed for target 'k' error running Makefile.
Thanks in Advance,
Shwetha

Hmm, does "/etcdir/services" exist? Apparently not.
You should populate the directory with the ascii yp map sources, so that there's something from which yp
maps can be built.

  • NIS master server setup error

    I am configuring a new NIS master server but when i wanted to start the setup process by the command ypinit -m, i get the following error messages bellow;
    make: Warning: Target `all' not remade because of errors+
    Current working directory /var/yp*

    universe has been set up as a yp master server with errors.  Please remember
    to figure out what went wrong, and fix it.
    If there are running slave yp servers, run yppush now for any data bases
    which have been changed.  If there are no running slaves, run ypinit on
    those hosts which are to be slave servers.
    please help to check what can be the problem.

    Hi Sowmya,
    What i get from your post is, You are trying to install
    1. Repository Server with External Database System.
    2. Business Architect
    and all this three ( Repository server, Database System and Business Architect) are on the same machine.
    I would suggest the following steps.
    1. Install your external Database system (Oracle 10g..) without creating any Database Instance.
    2. Install Repository server Select the third option in datbase which say create a new instance and configure it.
    When you choose the third option Repository server creates a Database instance and configures it for itself.
    3. Install Business Architect with standard database.
    you will get LOCAL server, click on Add server and add our repository server (please dont forget to Start the Repository server before connecting :) ).
    You can do this all on same machine or all on different machines but there may be some firewall issue depending upon your netwrok configuration. so i suggest try n test all this on as same machine first.
    I will be happy to answer any more queries on this topic...
    Regards
    Gaurav Sharma :)

  • DTP error: Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes

    Hi,
    I have a custom datasource from ECC which loads into 0CUST_SALES.  I'm using DTP & transformation which has worked for loading data in the past for this infoobject.  The infopackage loads with a green status but when i try to load data, the DTP fails with an error message at "Updating attributes for InfoObject 0CUST_SALES Processing Terminated" & the job log says: "Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes".  I've tried reactivating everything but it didn't help. Does anyone know what this error means? We're on SP7.   Thanks in advance!

    Hello Catherine
    I have had this problem in the past (3.0B) --> the reason is that our system was too slow and could not crunch the data fast enough, therefore packets where loacking each other.
    The fix: load the data into the PSA only, and then send it in background from the PSA to the info object. By doing this, only a background process will run, therefore locks cannot happen.
    Fix#2: by a faster server (by faster, I mean more CPU power)
    Now, maybe you have another issue with NW2004s, this was only my 2 cents quick thought
    Good luck!

  • NIS client lookup for NIS master server problem

    Dear All,
    I have solaris OS 10 installed on NIS master and slave server and also client. Sometimes, my client cannot work properly. Although it is configured to lookup for NIS master as the server, it lookup for slave server instead occasionally. It will be alright after reboot. Please advise.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    best regards
    vlsi

    I'm not sure why you would want the client to not bind to the slave and only to the master. That's the whole point of having slave servers.
    Just rerun ypinit -c on the client if you want to change which server the client binds to.
    If your slave server is not working right, fix it.

  • NIS: Initializing the master server

    In trying to setup a NIS master server, I took the following steps:

    2. domainname kingfisher.com
    3. domainname > /etc/defaultdomain
    4. /usr/sbin/ypinit -m
    then I got the following error message:
    "Can't get domain name from the local host ...check your path"

  • NIS master Configuration

    How to configure a NIS Master server,
    Lets I tell myself what i knows,
    hostname:host
    Domainname : domain
    #cat /etc/hosts
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    192.168.0.1 host domain

    copy all the files from /etc folder to /var/yp directory

    #ypinit -m
    hostname = host
    primary server name = domain
    ctrl+d
    proceed automatically
    But it is not binding to my domain when i restart my server.
    Please provide the solution with an example

    Which solaris version are you using?
    Try to remove file /etc/defaultdomain and re-create it.
    Do you have any messages in your syslog?
    Did you do the next:

  • Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes error

    Hi experts,
    We were encountering this error before when trying to load master data.  When we checked the system we could not find any locks at the time, and activation or kicking off the attribute change run failed again.  We finally solved the problem running FM RSDDS_AGGR_MOD_CLOSE which sets the close flag to 'X' in table RSDDAGGRMODSTATE.  I have read that it is possible this lock error happens when two change runs happen at the same time.
    My question are:
    1. is it possible to find out what process exactly "caused" the lock? the table RSDDAGGRMODSTATE does not have a reference to any object or job. I am curious as we are trying to find ways to avoid this in the future...
    2. in our case, when we could not find any locks, is running this fm the only work around? is this a best practice?

  • Error in Setting lock for Master Data Load

    Hi Team,
    I encounter the following error while uploading the Masterdata
    "Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes
    Attributes of characteristic 0BPARTNER are locked by terminated change run 465451241"
    I Performed the following steps
    1) Checked if any active jobs (change run jobs) running in the system. But no jobs running.
    2) RSATTR->infoobject list-> no infoobject found
    3)Tried after sometime ,but load continue to fail
    Could anyone help to solve the problem
    thanks
    Bala

    Hi Bala,
    Check in SM12 if there are any locks exist with the change run number?
    First check if there are any Master data loads running related to it?
    Check in the Attribute change run screen if there are any change run steps are running?
    Once after checking the above if no locks exist and no master data is running then check the below steps
    1. Run RSA1 transaction
    2. Tools -> Apply Hierarchy/Attibutes Change(or direct transaction RSATTR)... menu option
    3. Click at "Monitor and Start terminated Change Runs" button (at the bottom of the screen)
    4. Click "Reset Status" button at Run ID 465451241
    NOTE: this is not recommended, to unlock the locks better to wait till the locks get relased.
    If still the error message persists then we can use a FM in se37 in serious cases which was not recommended by SAP...
    Use RSDDS_AGGR_MOD_CLOSE in se37 and execute--->there give ur failed change run no(465451241) beside I_CNSID and execute...
    It releases all the locks by that change run....and continue with your further work/jobs...

  • Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2

    Hi,
    I have a Primary site (mixed mode) running SCCM 2007 SP1 for many months now with no issues.
    This site is made up of two Win 2008 sp2 servers sharing the SCCM roles:-
    SCCM01 - Site server, DP, RP, PXE and SQL2005 hosting the SCCM database
    SCCM02 – SUP, MP, FSP, SLP
    The SQL2005 on SCCM01 is running under a domain service account called
    domain\service_sccm which is also a sysadmin in SQL as is the SCCM02 server.
    In an effort to resolve the isse I have made this account a Domain Admin.
    I have also used this account to log onto SEC01 to run the Secondary Site installation and to be the SQL Service account.
    I'm now trying to add a Secondary Site on a Domain Controller called SEC01 (also Win2008 sp2) and on the same LAN as the SCCM01/02.
    This is where I get problems.
    I run the installation locally on the Sec Site server (DC) as a Domain Admin and the installation completes OK (all green ticks),
    the ComponentSetup.log and Pre-Reqs are all good as well however when I check the ConfigMgrSetup.log I see the below -
    Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2.
    <11-09-2010 22:46:59> SMS Setup full version is 4.00.6221.1000

    <11-09-2010 22:47:01> SMS Site Component Manager installation completed.
    <11-09-2010 22:47:01> Done with service installation
    Adding the PMP role to SEC01 also fails to install and no MPSetup or MPControl logs are created.
    WebDav and win2008 roles, features all added and server fully patched.
    Despooler.log on SCCM01 seems good and passing keys.
    Tried installing to default path and to shortened path such as C:\SCCM
    The new secondary site is listed in the console and an address can be added for the Secondary Site
    BITS Server Extensions and Remote Differential Compression Features are enabled.
    The Group memberships all appear ok:-
    SCCM01
    Local Admins    
    contains the sec site server SEC01, SCCM01, installation accounts
    SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_001              
    SEC01 (the sec site server)
    SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_001                 
    SCCM02
    SEC01
    No Local Admins as a DC
    SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_002              
    SCCM01
    SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_002     
    empty
    SQL 2005
    This has the account logged in during installation as a sysadmin
    SCCM02 is also sysadmin
    The fundamental issue appears to be that the SEC01$ server account is not being added to SQL Logins (and therefore SCCM database Roles)
    therefore the installation cannot complete.
    I have tried to manually add the SEC01 account to SQL Logins before installation of Sec Site but this did not work.
    Not sure if the fact that SEC01 is a DC may be a factor.
    Appreciate any help if anyone has seen this before or can suggest a resolution.
    Thanks

    After a lot of digging around and head scratching I eventually found the resolution.
    The original thread title Error turned out to be a bit of a red herring in that my failure to deploy Sec Sites came down to two separate issues seemingly unrelated to the error message of the thread title.
    The first part of the resolution was to manually create the SQL Server accounts for the Sec Site Servers and assign them to the smsdbrole_MP DB role to
    let the SQL side of the SCCM install complete a s these were not being created automatically.
    This then left the fact that that the installation of the Sec Site completed successfully according to the install logs in C:\ however the DP and MP would
    never install.
    The big clue was eventually contained in the mpfdm.log errors relating to
    **ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox SMS_AMT_PROXY_COMPONENT on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER 
    and
    **ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox Asset Intelligence KB Manager on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER 
    Thankfully the errors led me to these two blogs:
    http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/scassells/archive/2009/07/20/error-cannot-find-path-for-destination-inbox-sms-amt-proxy-component-on-server-registry.aspx
    and
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsetup/thread/5fcc53d4-8629-4b34-9eaa-6cb020eedc13/
    As it turned out the SCCM installation registry and folder creation does not complete and I had to manually enter the reg settings as detailed in the
    links above to complete the installation. Once I did as described everything worked a treat – all my MPs and DPs are 100% now.

    Any help would be much appreciated
    Thanks!!!

    I believe this means that the JSP has already committed to sending data to the output stream, so it can no longer do a redirect or forward. If you have redirect or forward logic in your page, you should execute it before you write any data to the output stream. This means it needs to be the first thing in the page before any html is written.
