How to keep Lion Server wiki service running in bootcamp windows?

I know this is a stupid question, but ...
I used to run mac mini server as the wiki & file sharing server within my team, and use vmware to load the win7 on the bootcamp partition to do some jobs which need M$ visual studio.
Now I have some new things to do with windows phone7, but unlike other simulators, windows phone7 is extremely slow if I run it in the vmware. I have to boot bootcamp and run the emulator natively, meanwhile I don't want to stop the Lion server especially the wiki services.
So the question comes:
Is there a way to migrate the existing Lion server contents to a Windows? Perhaps I need to setup windows+apache+mysql+php? It seems not a easy way.
Or anyway to boot the existing Lion partition in a windows virtual machine? Some tips? Many thanks!

Snow Leopard did the same if you used the GUI. I responded to you in your other thread. You can also simply use a different Apache. Use Macports to install your own apache, which can be managed via command line or webmin. Thus, the apple one deals with Apple stuff, and, yours deals with everything else.

You apparently are using a version of OS X you did not purchase using your Apple ID. Although you can download Mavericks you cannot install it over your current system. You must repartition your hard drive, then reinstall the version of OS X originally installed when it came new from the factory. That would be on the installer discs that should have come with the computer. If the computer did not come with discs from the factory but OS X was pre-installed (Lion or Mountain Lion) then you can perform an Internet Recovery:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Has anyone got the Lion Server wiki to work?

I can get the Lion Server wiki to work on the default website, but cannot figure out how to get it to work on an additional website I have created in the Server app. Has anyone got this to work? If so, how do you do it? I imagine it has something to do with an alias or something in one of the conf files in /etc/apache2/sites, but cannot get past this. Thank you in advance for any guidance.

I finally relented and just put all of my website files in the /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default directory and got my wiki running off of my website properly at www.mydomainname.com/wiki. I am still looking for a way for having this wiki to run off of a website that is not stored in the Default directory if someone knows how to do that. It would also be nice to have several wikis served up (one per website, or even several per website) by the wiki server in the same way that more than one website can be served up by the web server. Anyway, the problem is solved for now.

Lion Server DNS service not working for locally created zones. Caching working fine.

OS Lion Server DNS service not working for local zones. Was fine under Snow leopard server but Lion server upgrade has severely broken my DNS and web sites. Zones look fine under Server Admin but keep getting "query failed (SERVFAIL) for xxxx at /SourceCache/bind9/bind9-42/bind9/bin/named/query.c:3921" in the logs. BTW - Server Admin cant seem to see the log file either.
Surely someone actually tested that DNS still worked on Lion?

I upgraded from Snow Leopard Server to Lion Server on day 01. I hit the same issue where, after the upgrade, my Lion Server stopped serving names for my private local domain.
I finally took a few minutes to figure out what was wrong. After turning on debug logging and looking through the logs, I found my particular issue, now resolved.
The issue I had was, when the domain initially was setup when I installed Snow Leopard Server, for some reason it created a zone just for the server (in my case, something like zone "s-01.mydomain.priv"), and a separate zone for all the other machines (zone "mydomain.priv", containing all the private IPs for my local domain). I never messed with it because it worked, but generally I would have put all of them in the same zone.
My zone "mydomain.priv" had a nameserver and mail exchanger entry for my server, s-01.mydomain.priv. I could see this in the Server Admin app on the DNS bubble, Zones tab, mydomain.priv selected, and the General Info panel. This was fine in Snow Leopard. This was failing the zone load in the updated bind for Lion Server, though. The issue was that the "mydomain.priv" zone was referencing the s-01.mydomain.priv server, which was not defined in the "mydomain.priv" zone but rather in the "s-01.mydomain.priv" zone.
My fix:
1. In Server Admin, add the server to the zone "mydomain.priv". I put an A record (Add Machine) in the "mydomain.priv" zone for my server named s-01.mydomain.priv.
2. shut down DNS on the OS X Lion Server (hit the Stop DNS button on Server Admin).
3. edit /etc/named.conf by hand, removing the specialized zones that contianed just the server. In this case, it would be the section titled 'zone "s-01.mydomain.priv"' and the section titled 'zone "3.10.1.10.in-addr.arpa"'. Your in-addr.arpa zone name will change based on whatever your server IP address was. My internal one happened to have s-01.mydomain.priv mapped to 10.1.10.3.
4. Once the specialized zones for just the server were removed, I started the DNS up again. Instead of serving four zones as it had in OS X Snow Leopard Server, it now servers two zones. And, now, it is resolving my local machines for the mydomain.priv zone.
YMMV. I did note that it wasn't totally necessary to do step 3, but I never really understood the need for the specialized domain, and keeping it around would have a copy of data that would just confuse things.
Hope that helps. That's been the only hiccup I've noticed updating to OS X Lion Server thus far.

How to keep connection of network service in win8.1

Dear sir / madam,
i would like to ask how to keep connection of network service in win8.1, after i logout / switch user/ sleep.
thanks

Hi,
Did you have any issue on your computer?
The network is disconnection when you logged off the computer. This is expected behavior.
The network is stayed connection when you switch the user.
For sleep mode, check the following setting:
right click the network device in Device Manager and go up to the top and hit
Power Management. Then uncheck the box that says "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

Specifically, the posts by Dunsany and valkyr did the trick. I booted in safe mode, uninstalled and deleted the Nvidia driver, disabled automatic driver installation, and restarted normally. I then manually downloaded and installed the previous Nvidia driver for my graphics card (which at the time of this writing was 335.23, rather than the latest which was 337.88), and everything is now bueno!
Two hiccoughs along the way: First, when I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver the first time, when I restarted I got the login screen (which was a good sign), but it quickly went black again. I powered down, restarted in safe mode again, and repeated the uninstallation process, and it worked the second time. Second, when I started the manual install of the 335.23 driver, the computer played a sound similar to the one for disconnecting a USB device, and the screen went black. I'd seen a lot about trying to increase the brightness (though it hadn't worked up to this point; but if you haven't tried it yet, might as well); I tried it, and it worked! So far I'm back up and running. [/fingers crossed]
Hope this helps someone else!

How do I fix my Lion Server Wiki?

On my Mac Mini with Lion Server when I visit the wiki it always says the server is down. How do I fix this?

How do I go about setting up my Lion server to download updates for my other workstations
Use Server Admin to turn on the Software Update Server. Give it a while to download all the updates. Done.
What do I need to do on the client side as well so that they can download from my OS X server
How do the clients connect to the server? Are they using central accounts via Open Directory? or are they local accounts on each machine.
If you're using Open Directory you can control the software update server via Workgroup Manager, otherwise you'll need to walk through each machine and update its software update configuration. Apple have a tech note that describes how to manually configure each client to use your server.

[SOLVED] Can't make Akonadi server / Nepomuk service run

I'm currently running KDE SC 4.9 on Arch Linux x86_64, system fully up to date.
My laptop's HD went dead some days ago so I had to restore my system from a 2-weeks old backup; I usually use fsarchiver to backup root partition and 7z to compress ~/.kde4 and ~/.config so this way I'm covered up about these kind of things.
So after restoring my system and home folder I did a full upgrade (nearly a gigabyte of downloads) and while most things seems to work well I found that Nepomuk isn't running, when I try to start it manually I have this error message:
"Failed to start the desktop search service (Nepomuk). The settings have been saved and will be used the next time the server is started."
Going back to the wiki I did my homework re-configuring Akonadi but so far I can't make Nepomuk run.

* UPDATE *
1.Further research shows akonadi database is empty so it seems Akonadi isn't connecting to MySQLd.
2. I created a new user to simplify research and found the very same problem when trying to activate Nepomuk: Failed to start the desktop search service (Nepomuk). The settings have been saved and will be used the next time the server is started.
From what I remember Akonadi/Nepomuk/Soprano were working well in previous KDE 4.8.4.

Solved after reinstalling all MySQL stack.

Questions about OS X Server Wiki Service

I'm trying to get familiar with Mountain Lion OS X Server. I got questions here and hope somebody would help...
When I start Websites and access it using "server.local" or "localhost", I get a web page server from the directory - this is correct. Then, I started Wiki and access it at the same address. I get served from the Wiki server. So, does this mean that starting the Wiki server will always replace the Web site hosting service? How do I easily make the Web server serve at port 80 and 443, and set another port for the Wiki.
If I want to use HTTP realm to prevent anyone from accessing the Wiki, what is the easiest way to configure it? (Basically, I want to prompt for password whenever the wiki is access. That is, no public/global access even though the Wiki is hosted on the public Internet.) If this is not easy to configure, then I can consider setting up VPN.
Further, in this documentation: [https://help.apple.com/advancedserveradmin/mac/10.8/#apd59153f0a-7ed3-4c64-9c74- 3a1fff831475], it says the collabd_url is running on port 4444. However, when I access it on that port, I get a blank page. Why?
And, on the same documentation page, there is a field called "use_sandbox_server" and the 'default' is "true". This setting is actually not found when I opened the 'collabcored.plist' file, and the Activity Monitor shows that it is not sandboxed. Can anyone provide some clues on what's happening?
Lastly, what are the software behind which powers with Wiki? (ie. what is the database, and it it actually a PHP appication, etc.?)
Thanks!
Kevin.
P.S. I search for answers on Apple documentation but could not seem to find the answers. Hope someone could help...

Try using this info, its for Rumpus (who make a 3rd party FTP server) but the same method can be used to make any virtual host, so you can have more than one service running on the same port (or appear to run on the same port)
OS X Server Users:
OS X Server uses the Apache Web service, but uses special configuration files in the process. Changing the Apache config files directly may have inconsistent results. Try creating a virtual server in OS X Server, and then modifying the OS X Server config file for that virtual domain.
For example, to set up an alternate service using the "rumpus.acme.com" domain name, you would create a Web site in OS X Server called "rumpus.acme.com". Once you have done that, look in the folder:
/Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/sites
There you will find a file that includes the alternate domain name, like "0000_any_80_rumpus.acme.com.conf". In that file is a VirtualHost configuration block which can be modified to include the proxy directives shown above. Some of OS X Server's configuration options, like the "IfModule" and "Directory" blocks, can be removed, since the virtual server won't actually be processing files from the file system. Other config options, like ServerName and ServerAdmin, can be left as specified by OS X Server.
Here is an example:
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName rumpus.acme.com
    ServerAdmin [email protected]
    DocumentRoot "/Users/Shared"
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.php /wiki/ default.html
    CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access_log combinedvhost
    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error_log
    ProxyRequests Off
    <Proxy *>
      Order deny,allow
      Allow from all
    </Proxy>
    ProxyPass / http://rumpus.acme.com:8000/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://rumpus.acme.com:8000/
</VirtualHost>
Remember to stop and start the Apache service (using OS X Server if you have customized the OS X Server config file) after making changes to force Apache to reload changes.

Lion Server VPN Service/Class C IPs/Bonjour

In order to deploy Lion Server's VPN service, you obviously are required to enter an IP range to assign. We are running a standard class C network here, with systems running on 192.168.1.x. The problem is that if a user is accessing the VPN from a remote location that also uses the same IP scheme, then they won't be able to connect. Is there a simple way to deal with this? Is the only way to fix the problem to re-assign every IP address on our network a more unique address scheme? We have a large network and that would be unwieldy.
Also, will it be possible to use Bonjour over the VPN? We want to be able to share network resources as if the user was physically connected to our LAN.
Thanks in advance for your answers!

Linc Davis wrote:

Bonjour doesn't work over a routed connection. You would need to use something like this:
Slinkware
Thanks for this link Linc. From descriptions and reviews it sounds like exactly what I was looking for to propagate Bonjour service discovery to a remote Mac. Being a little naive I had set up an OS X Server VPN expecting Bonjour to "just work" once a remote Mac connected!
In particular the Slinkware web site has a detailed description on how to set up certificate authentication which improves security (geeky but very well detailed).

How to configure Lion Server as network time server?

I have Lion Server at the top of a small network of Windows 2K, Windows XP and Windows 7 machines.
I need each of those computers to synch their time to that of the Mac Server because this network operates without internet access.
I have tried various protocols from those machines to synch on the server's IP but they all fail.
It has led me to belive I need to enable a service to allow time synch to the managed computers.
But I can't find information on this. I keep getting directed to how to synch the mac to a time server or time machine configuration tips.
Thanks in advance

In Server Admin, select your server, click on Settings, then go to the General tab. You will see an option to enable the Network Time Server.

How to uninstall Lion Server?

I accidentally downloaded Lion Server on my laptop. I need to uninstall this. Anyone know how to uninstall?

Well, actually it's been posted some days ago. But it's not quite enough to get rid of it.
Yesterday I gave it a try and, once everything in the note is done, you still have to open Terminal and :
stop the Apache server (sudo apachectl stop to stop it until next reboot or sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist to stop it definitely)
more important : stop the PostGRESQL database server and the collection of information you don't need anymore :
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.ServerPerfLog.plist
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postgresql.postgres.plist
To revert this commands, simply run them with 'unload -w' changed in 'load -w'.
(I couldn't manage to find a graphical tool to do it, hence the Terminal commands)
If you upgraded from Snow Leopard and would like to get back the original Web Server configuration (with the ~username local web sites) you have to put back the Apache configuration file stored during the Server installation. In /private/etc/apache2, you should find a httpd.conf.bak file, to rename in httpd.conf (beforehand, you should keep a copy of the current file, if ever you change your mind). Then restart Apache (sudo apachectl graceful).

Lion Server Wiki - Factory reset?

Folks
I have a new clean installed Lion Server on a Mac Mini.
I have been experimenting with the Wiki.
I now want to start again with a totally clean, new Wiki
Question - how do I do a 'Factory reset" to the Wiki?
I don't need to retain any information
I do not want to do a total Lion Server re-install...
Best regards
Brian

Well, that is a major bummer that they know about it, I was hopeful it was fixed in 10.7.2.
Super-Duper is a superb back-up utility that takes a complete snapshot of the drive at intervals you set. Perhaps for now, you can set it at every night, or run it before a reboot. If the data is gone, you can easily restore the entire drive, quickly.
So, to get you up and running, download a widget from apple's site that allows you to see hidden folders. It makes it easy to toggle hidden folders on and off. Just search "apple hidden file widget" and follow the link. The company / author is "Matt Hansen" and it is free.
Then, install the widget and activate it so you can see the hidden folders. You will now see the /var directory that Brian mentions above. While in that folder, you could replace out particular folders or files with the time machine copies. Maybe replace out all of the pgsql folders? I am not totally sure on that, but that is what I would do.
Giant caveat - I would run Super Duper beforehand, so that if you mess up some integral file, you can quickly and easily just make the drive like it was before you start restoring things.
When done, remember to go back to the widgets and turn off "show hidden file" so you cannot see them anymore.
Let us know what you end up doing so as to help others who may get hit with this. Also, as you may know, 10.7.3 is supposedly close to being released, so I have my fingers crossed that it will solve this issue.

How to install the the report server as service in windows? so that it can be started automatically with machine restart.

Lion Server: Wiki Disables Allow Override

Greetings All,
I setup my Lion Server (10.7.2) and set the web site to allow overrides, which works great. However, when I enable the Wiki service, it "disables" the htaccess directives and those directories for which I need indexing no longer appear. Instead, the wiki portal page appears. Any thoughts on what conf file I need to change to prevent the wiki service from ignoring the htaccess directives?

Found the answer myself. Removed the "/wiki/" parameter from the "DirectoryIndex" in the 0000_any_80_.conf file and the htaccess directives are working fine now.

How to keep Lion Server wiki service running in bootcamp windows?
