Home directory is not created and cannot log from client computer

I am trying to set up MacOsX server. I already have another server which is my DNS server. I am trying to create an Open Directory Master server.
Server was updated to 10.4.8 MacOsX from the beginning of existence.
I created couple of users in Open directory domain for testing purposes.
So, the first problem is, that when I am trying to create a user home directory server does not create it and does not give any errors about that. I tried in bash createhomedir utility, it did not work either, again, no error messages.
Another problem:
I set up Open Directory master with LDAP. It was set up correctly, no error messages. At least I did not see any.
The I tried to connect to the server from my client iMac computer which has 10.4.8 MacOsX as well. So I set up LDAP there in Directory services, it was able to find my server and bind to it. Then when I am trying to login with username and password in Open Directory on the server, it does nor recognize it. No error messages in logs as well.
However, if I am trying to use ssh from client machine to connect to Server using the names which are in Open Directory on the server it allows me to do so. But of course it says no home directory defined.
Than you very much for responce!

An Open Directory Master requires DNS running somewhere. You could have a scenario involving 4 servers where: DNS is provided by Server A, Server B is a Web & Mail Server, Server C providing FTP Services and Server D providing LDAP services with managed preferences and automounting Home Directories (ODM). In this scenario DNS is provide by Server A and any other server requiring DNS using Server A’s DNS. You could expand this scenario if you wanted and have replica (fallover) servers for Servers A, B C or D, or if you are the frugal sort just one replica server replicating the 4 primary servers. You can do all of this pretty much in 10.4 GUI with some additional configuration using Terminal

Have personal Apple ID account which allows me to download apple apps but when I go to update the apps Apple ID pops up thats not mine and cannot log in to update apps. Brand new IPAD never any other user

Is the AppleID listed in Settings --> Store and Settings --> iCloud the same?
If it is a totally different ID and not a slight variation of yours, I would definitely take it back to the store. You may have bought a returned item that had been setup previously.

SSPU issue: Cache directory does not exist, and couldn't create a new downl

I have installed SSPU and created an offer over there. When I run my offer it gives the error:
Cache directory does not exist, and couldn't create a new download cache directory.
Can anyone tell me the root cause and workaround for this issue?

Hi
Try deleting the "offer" directory from SSPU home and then delete the offer from Sub-Client . Restart client and then add the provider . Start pushing the content from SSPU and see if the issue still persists .
Thanks

Cluvfy returns Path "/tmp/" does not exist and cannot be created on nodes

Hi,
I'm installing Oracle RAC for SAP in AIX 5L.
After run Pre-check for cluster services setup it returns the next message:
Path "/tmp/" does not exist and cannot be created on nodes
This meessage is happening after Checking node reachability and Checking user equivalence phases.

Where can my problem be ?

Hi,
Even if this is not resolved from above stuff then do the following
[oracle@node1] ssh node1 date
[oracle@node2] ssh node2 date
Note that it is doing the ssh to itself rather than the remaining node(s). Usually people do forget to do atleast once the ssh to itself.

Running Windows XP service pack 3. Updated Firefox from 8.0 to 9.0. Now when Firefox opens "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is displayed in a window and no home page appears. What's wrong?

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded. This statement comes up on almost any attempt to log into or click a link to anything at least on 2 tries, then the site comes up. what's up with this?

Thanks for the help

That issue can be caused by a corrupted or incomplete Visual C++ installation (multiple versions can be installed side-by-side; SxS) that is missing some runtime components (Redistributable Packages) that Firefox depends on (problem with an embedded manifest file that specifies a specific runtime version).
You need to install the missing components (e.g. VisualC++ 2005 Redistrbutable).

When I click on the Home button, I get a message saying "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded????????"

When I first turn on Firefox, I only get a blank "new tab". It does not go to the Firefox Home Page. When I click on the Home button in the top right, I get the message "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." How can I fix this so when I open Firefox it goes right to the Firefox Home Page (or a home page of my own choosing)??

[[How to set the home page]] has detailed instructions.
To get back to the default home page:
# At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP) and then click Options.
# Select the General panel.
# In the Startup box, click Restore to Default.
If this isn't "sticking", you may have malware or an extension that is preventing you from making the change.

Home directory is not being backed up in Time Machine

Problem: It turns out my home directory does not have any backups in Time Machine for the last year. I've never received any error message indicating it wasn't doing the full backup.
Goal: I'd like to get Time Machine to back up my home folder (which contains 100% of the content I care about) again, ideally in a way where I can keep my history from the last time it backed up successfully.
How I found out:
- I opened Time Machine and realized all the "pink bars" were dimmed all the way back up to Sept. 2011 when I navigated to my home folder or any folder within it.
- I cloned a file within my home folder, did a manual Time Machine back up, opened Time Machine and verified that the backup volume did not contain the cloned file.
- I did this again while watching the Console and verified that it did not make a large enough backup to include the cloned file.
- I explored all the backups in Finder and realized that indeed all the backups that corresponded to the dimmed pink bars in Time Machine had no home folder.
- I did an "ls -a" in the backup volume in Terminal and realized that it was not the case that the home directory was present but merely hidden.
What I've tried:
- I created a new admin account, logged into that and did a manual Time Machine backup from there. The new account was backed up, while the original home directory still wasn't. This continues to be true in subsequent backups made while logged into the main account.
- I examined the exclusions list in Time Machine preferences. The only items were the backup volume itself and another partition of that external drive I use for other backups, as expected.
- I did a "Full Reset of Time Machine" (http://pondini.org/TM/A4.html), with a reboot before re-enabling Time Machine. The plist file did change to become much simpler, but the home folder is still not being backed up.
Other notes:
- I run Dropbox, and have those contents in a folder one level under the home directory
- I run Git
- The existing backups have only used 500GB or so of a 1TB partition, so it's not filling up.
- I ran Verify Disk in Disk Utility on both my backup volume and the mac's HD. The backup volume appeared OK, but the mac HD was "found corrupt and needs to be repaired". I could boot into the Recovery HD and repair it, but I feel like this is a risk and I'd like to have a working backup before I do that (I don't have another external HD around to make a temporary backup). Could the corrupted drive be the reason Time Machine has been silently skipping the home folder?
- My home folder is named "apple". Might this be a problem? I'd rename it, but that's a risk and I'd like a verified backup before doing that.
- The Time Machine plist file in /Library/Preferences is pretty hard to read in pico, TextEdit, etc (maybe this is normal?)
I've scoured the forums and pondini's very thorough troubleshooting pages to no avail. Please let me know if anyone has ideas. Thanks.

Latest update: Bought a new external harddrive, set that up as the new Time Machine volume, but got the exact same results (all but my main user directory are backed up). This is after another Time Machine reset (deleting the .plist), starting up in Safe Mode, and trying to initiate the backup from both the account that doesn't get backed up and another administrator account.
Here is some of the output from the Console when filtering messages for "backupd":
10/5/12 2:51:23.572 AM com.apple.backupd[13529]: Backup content size: 481.57 GB excluded items size: 11.31 GB for volume Macintosh HD
10/5/12 2:51:23.572 AM com.apple.backupd[13529]: Found 1437613 files (470.25 GB) needing backup
10/5/12 2:51:23.573 AM com.apple.backupd[13529]: 564.3 GB required (including padding), 1.5 TB available
10/5/12 2:51:23.581 AM com.apple.backupd[13529]: Waiting for index to be ready (100)
10/5/12 3:40:33.297 AM com.apple.backupd[13529]: Copied 763432 files (21.54 GB) from volume Macintosh HD.
Put the relevant parts in bold. No messages about why it only backed up 21.54GB when it found 470.25GB that needed to get backed up.
Does this make sense to anyone??

Data Pump Export issue - no streams pool created and cannot automatically c

My oracle directory is created and the user has rights
googling the issue says that the shared pool is too small or streams_pool_size needs setting. shared_pool_size = 1200M and when I query v$parameter it shows that streams_pool_size = 0
I've tried alter system set streams_pool_size=1M; but I just get :
ORA-02097: parameter cannot be modified because specified value is invalid
ORA-04033: Insufficient memory to grow pool
The server is a windows enterprise box with 16GB ram and VLM enabled, pfile memory parameters listed below:

job_queue_processes = 10
open_cursors = 1000 # no overhead if set too high

# System Managed Undo and Rollback Segments
undo_management=AUTO
undo_tablespace=UNDOTBS1
# vlm support
USE_INDIRECT_DATA_BUFFERS = TRUE
DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS = 1500000
Any ideas why I cannot run data pump? I am assuming that I just need to set streams_pool_size but I don't understand why I cannot increase the size of it on this db. It is set to 0 on other databases that work fine and I can set it which is why I am possibly linking the issue to vlm
thanks

CREATE DIRECTORY Does not Create Any Directory in My File System Hard Disk

create or replace directory emp_dir
as 'D:\emp_direc';
Main Question:
*1. Transaction succeeded, but i have not seen emp_direc created in my D: drive. I'm running Vista Home Edition x32. Any idea why directory does not show up?*
Optional:
Extra info:
after creating a directory i did: - avoid comment sign
--create table oldemp ( fname char(25), lname char(25) )
--organization external
--(type oracle_loader
-- default directory emp_dir
-- access parameters
-- ( records delimited by newline
-- nobadfile
-- nologfile
-- fields terminated by ','
-- (fname position(1:20) char,
-- lname position(22:41) char)
-- location ('emp.dat')
--parallel 5
--reject limit 200;
Table created successfully, then I did
describe oldemp;
Name NULL Type
FNAME CHAR(25)
LNAME CHAR(25)
2 rows selected
Extra questions:
*2. emp.dat carries all the table data which can make data more portable to different oracle servers. However, it is one time operation, once table is populated, i can not update, insert, delete any rows. Thats what i know, if i'm wrong please let me know. If what i said is true, just confirm it if you don't mind...*
*3. Parallel 5, allows five oracle servers to deal with the emp.dat file at the same time. So won't there be any conflict! Maybe one server wants to read a certain data while the other server wants to delete it. Can you clarify please....*

<snip>
From the fine SQL Reference Manual found a tahiti.oracle.com, in the prerequisites for the CREATE DIRECTORY command:
For file storage, you must also create a corresponding operating system directory, an ASM disk group, or a directory within an ASM disk group.
Your system or database administrator must ensure that the operating system directory has the correct read and write permissions for Oracle Database processes.
Privileges granted for the directory are created independently of the permissions defined for the operating system directory, and
the two may or may not correspond exactly. For example, an error occurs if sample user hr is granted READ privilege on the directory object but
the corresponding operating system directory does not have READ permission defined for Oracle Database processes.

[User home directory property not found.]

Our Roaming Profile policy does not work but exits with the following error message in the log file:
RoamingProfile Policy] "...[POLICYHANDLERS.RoamingProfile.ErrorInEnforcement] .... [User home directory property not found.] ...."
We are running ZCM 10.3.1
We have the exact same environment at another customer where everything is just working fine. We compared the user properties and could not find any differences. eDirectory is fine, too
Does anybody have the same problems or a solution to it?
Thanks,
Sebastian

Yes, home directory is defined in eDir.
In Novell Client for Windows XP there is no "Allow Roaming User Profile Paths to non-Windows servers" attribute, it is in Client for Win 7 only.
In roaming policy, if I type the path to home directory manualy, it works fine.
In our original environment I have ZfD 4 on Netware, roaming profiles save to home directories normally, without errors.

The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded

seems like maybe firefox mishandles untrusted certificates?
It gives error: Alert The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded.
example:
https://notes.corp.cat.com/
other browsers can load this URL just fine. When I visit it in Firefox, I get the error in a simple little message box with a yellow triangle exclamation point, titled "Alert".
ALSO.... when I click the "Home" button in firefox, I get the error, and the home page does not load. Currently the home page is set to "Mozilla Firefox Start Page."
changing the home page to: http://www.google.com/ allows the home page button to work normally.
restoring the home page to default brings the error behavior back when clicking the home button.
changing the home page to: https://notes.corp.cat.com/ produces the same error, just like when I manually type in an https URL with a funky security certificate.
This problem only seems to happen on secure URLs with untrusted certificates, i.e. sites that are too cheap to pay to have their certificate registered with one of the certificate vendors or however the hell that works, so as a result every time you visit their web site, your browser starts to whine that it might be a forgery or whatever.
It used to be in Firefox that I could load these pages and just specify that I want to trust the site anyway. Now firefox gives this error that doesn't allow the user to know what is really going on or what the reason for the error is. It is as if the developers decided that users are too stupid to decide if they really want to visit the site or not, so as a result Firefox is just refusing to visit any web sites where the authenticity of the certificate can't be verified? Hey, it's not a bad idea, to be honest. :-) But it's kind of annoying, because here I am, sort of smart enough to know what I'm doing, but I don't have the choice in the matter...
I restarted with all add-ons disabled and that didn't help. I don't have much installled in the way of add-ons anyway. All I have is JAVA quick starter 1.0, and Adobe Acrobat, Java development toolkit, Java platform SE, Microsoft DRM, and Windows Media Player Plug-in Dynamic Link Library. Not even Flash. All the above is disabled now that I rebooted with add-ons disabled, and I still have the issue.
