Ical server disclaims after security update 2009-006 (Server)

hi
after i update the leopardserver 10.5.8 to the actual security update 2009-006 (Server), the ical server was not available anymore. the ical client say something like "host disclaims access".
i tried to restinstall 10.5.8 combo update and disc repair. but that doesnt work, and to disactivate firewall for a try.
anybody an idea how to fix this?
thanks!
f.h.

Multiple Errors - G5 Quad/Mac OSX 10.5.8 - After Security Update 2009-006

I'm using a PPC G5 Quad, and after I installed Security Update 2009-006, I began having problems even being able to open project files Final Cut Pro 6. So I had to force quit FCP6, but even that wouldn't close the application.
I figured the issue was probably just with the application, so I manually powered down the computer and only wound up getting two blank blue screens on my monitors when I powered back up.
Powered down again, disconnected power cord for 2 minutes, then powered back up.
Attempted to open FCP6, didn't work, wouldn't quit using "Force Quit."
Opened Motion 3 to create a new project outside of FCP6 - when I selected "Save Project As" the application became unresponsive. Would not quit even when I selected "Force Quit."
To test if there was an issue with other applications besides Final Cut Studio 2, I opened Pages and tried selecting "File->Open." This made the application unresponsive, and would not quit with "Force Quit."
I repeated this test with:
QuickTime Player
Adobe Photoshop CS
Preview
Microsoft Word
Safari
ALL of these applications became unresponsive when I tried using the command "File->Open"
I then decided to try installing Security Update 2009-005 to see if that would help.
Because Safari was locked, I downloaded Security Update 2009-005 using Firefox, then re-downloaded Security Update 2009-006.
After downloading both security updates, I manually powered down the computer, disconnected the power cord for 2 minutes, then re-powered on the computer.
I immediately installed Security Update 2009-005 and restarted the computer.
Once it restarted, I opened up Pages and was successfully able to use the command "File->Open" to open both templates and previously created files.
I then opened FCP6 with no issues, and successfully opened and re-saved an existing project file.
I then re-installed Security Update 2009-006, and re-started the computer according to its prompts.
At first, it appeared that the issues were resolved. I opened Pages and was able to use the command "File->Open" to open an existing template.
I then quit Pages and attempted to open a new Finder window. Immediately I got a spinning rainbow ball and got the message on my screen "System Failure" etc etc, and the last line read something about "Panic" or "System Panic - we're holding here..." or something to that effect. Quite strange.
I'm now in the process of attempting to repair disk permissions using Disk Utility. The permissions that seem to be out of order are with:
private/var/log/secure.log (what and where is this???)
System/Library/CoreServices/Airport Base Station Agent.app/Contents/CodeResources"
various Airport Utilities
Various FrontRow
Various backrow
Several places I don't recognize such as usr/bin and usr/sbin
And internet plugins related to FlashPlayer

AFP Connection Problems after Server Security Update 2009-006

After installing the Security Update 2009-006 on the Server, we have Problems to mount Shares from two differnt AFP-Servers on the Client.
The Client and the Server have a binding to AD.
The Client can connect to Server1 via AFP.
But after this, the connection to Server2 shows the Volumen List from Server1!
Same Problem when the first Connection mounts Server2 and then Server1.
I tried the second connect with DNS-Name and IP-Adress.
There is no Problem when i am useing SMB.
Have anyone a Idea or the same Problem?
Thanks
Sven

Windows clients not able to FTP after security update 2009-0006

My FTP server hasn't changes in over a year. Recently, a client complained that they were seeing strange things when they logged into the FTP server.
What they used to see was a series of folders that stated 'Permission denied' and one single folder that had their name on it that they had permission to access. How I accomplished this was to set up an FTP folder and through ACL give them read/write permissions, but deny full control to all other clients. This way they can't see anything but their own FTP folders.
After the security update, what my clients now see is a list of files with names like this:
drwxr-xr-x 4 administrator staff 136 Dec 15 15:35 [client name]
Total 80
Warning: [client name]: Permission Denied
Warning: [client name]: Permission Denied
Warning: [client name]: Permission Denied
I think this issue started after I installed the security update 2009-006, but I can't be sure. What's strange is that I can login using a clients username and password using Transmit on my Mac, but when I try gain access using Windows XP and connecting through network places, I can't get in.
I did read in another posting about reverting to a backup of the ftpaccess file in /Library/FTPServer/Configuration folder. I compared my backup to the live server and they are the same...
Any help would be awesome, as I'm not exactly a trained IT guru...

Will there be a Security Update 2009-006 for Tiger PPC

Apple released Security Update 2009-006 for Leopard today, but not for Tiger.
Is there going to be any more support and updates for Tiger, since Snow Leopard came out?
Thanks

Hahahahah, yeah....
Actually, I just tried to reply to your message using Safari 4.0.4 and repeatedly got this error:
Request Timeout
The server timed out while waiting for the browser's request.
Reference #2.4da21160.1258046993.0
It did that with another page too, but is loading others fine. I am wondering if there is an issue. I may have to downgrade to 3 again, if that is possible.
I got used to using Firefox because I just upgraded from OS X 10.3.9 and had to use Safari 2.x, which doesn't work so well with the web anymore.

Security Update 2009-006 crashed my Macbook 13" (Intel Core Duo)

Hi all,
After accepted the automatic updates proposed by the OS, I was soon invited to restart the machine.
No files were downloaded (Security Update 2009-006, Itunes and Safari updates as well)
After rebooting the macbook, a grey screen with the apple logo and the turning wheel is showing for 1 to 2 minutes..... and this is repeated forever between the classic chime start up.
I repaired permissions from my DVD OS X Leopard and nothing happens.
Could you pls help to solve this problem ?
Regards to all there,
Daniel - Patagonia Argentina

HI Daniel,
*"I repaired permissions from my DVD OS X Leopard and nothing happens."*
Not the same as making sure the startup disk is ok.
Boot from your install disk and check the startup disk for errors.
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
*(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% to 15% free disk space*
If you cannot boot from your install disk, try booting in Safe Mode
What is Safe Mode
Update your system software to 10.5.8 using the Combo update available here.
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1058comboupdate .html
After updating to 10.5.8, run Sofware Update.
As with any software update(s), repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

After Security Update 2009-002 no connection to server

After running Security update 2009-002 I can not connect to a server, e.g. a webdisk with Apple+K command. Rebooting does not help, nor entering fresh login data.
Does anybody have a clue?
thanks in advance,
Flip

Hello Flip, and a warm welcome to the forums!
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Also remove it from the CMD+k window by highlighting it and clicking the little minus button.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

Reboot, test again.

Mail and Safari crashes after Security Update 2007-006 and update 10.4.10

I just installed Security Update 2007-006 (Universal) and Mac OS X Update (Intel) 10.4.10 and now neither Mail nor Safari (nor sometimes Microsoft Messanger) will start. They just crash immediately after starting. Safari started working for a short while, but now, again, it won't start either, and Mail has not opened once since installing these two updates without immediately crashing. Does anyone have any idea why that might be so or how I can fix it?

Hi Barry,
Thank you very much for your quick answer. I never installed Safari 3 beta. I ran the repair disk and repair permissions from my install DVD, and did it did find and fix errors. I also deleted com.apple.safari.plist as suggested, but neither Safari nor Mail will open yet without crashing immediately (I've also rebooted since doing so). Additionally, I found a suggestion on another website to try installing "Mac OSX Update Combo 10.4.10"--Software Update installed the non-combo version, whatever that means, but the Combo installer app also crashes when I try to start it. Do you have any other suggestions? What other information can I give that could help? These problems only occurred after my reboot this morning after installing the OSX and security updates. Anyway, thanks for your help.

Hangs during boot after Security Update 2007-006 Installed

Hello out there,
As I said in the Subject, I installed Security Update 2007-006 on my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.4.9 and now it wont boot. just from playing around with it in single user mode I think it hangs sometime when configd is starting, but I don't know exactly when or why it's not booting correctly.
Any suggestions on what to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
MacBook Pro Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.9)
Mac OS X (10.4.9)

The A&I, saving user and network settings, installation, just moves all current OS required stuff into a previous system folder and installs all new OS stuff. Afterwards, you'll have to bring it up to the latest version. It doesn't wipe the HD. If that doesn't work, then you can try via the other computer. If neither work, then you'll be forced to do an erase and install. That's why a bootable backup/clone is so valuable.

Won't sleep after "Security Update 2009-004"

Hi,
After installing the latest security update via software update on my unibody MacBook Pro, I can't get it to stay in sleep mode. When I close the lid it goes to sleep as usual, but awakens immediately, then sleeps again and the cycle continues. Making sleep mode effectively useless, and I also noticed that it becomes very hot as it goes through the cycle of sleeping and waking. Has anyone else experienced this? If so is there a fix, or will it be a matter of waiting for another update from Apple to fix it?

And just to mention, I've already tried resetting its PRAM, but it makes no difference.
Thanks.

Both times I had to power down via the power button. Any hints?
Thanks.

abdulg,
Thanks for the clarification. Well - I thought it might be the application, Merlin, since that's a high priced advanced app which "might" have been the source of the problem. My Macs are all named "Phyllis" (serially, as in "V," "VI," etc.) but I'd never noticed the kernel takes the name given to the machine.
Sorry, but from the other info in the crash report I can only see that it involves Open GL, the 3D rendering capability in OS X. That in turn "only suggests" that the problem has something to do with your graphics card.
Which brings up the other needed info: please post which Mac (model & year), which graphics card, amount of RAM for "Merlin."
I doubt I can help further but others more capable will ask for this info. FYI: it is "customary" to insert this info in your profile for such reference: obviously to facilitate helpers trying to diagnose and solve problems.

Security Update 2009-001 (Server Leopard) 'killed' perl

I've just done the update using Software update and just about everything I look at is working, except that perl seems to have gone almost AWOL. I seen it pop up occasionally in the Activity Monitor, but, when I try to run perl scripts from the command line or the cron jobs that ran flawlessly before the update, nothing happens. Period.
Anyone have the same experience and/or any suggestions of how to get out of this problem or cleanly back up to the previous server state (i.e. just before installing the update)?
Thanks.

The update only hoses IO and Time::HiRes on modified systems. The problem should not occur on stock installations.
IO prevents CPAN from working and needs to be installed manually (without CPAN).
Compress::Zlib has already caused problems in the past and depending on one's configuration may need to be installed manually (without CPAN).
To install IO, do the following:
mkdir -p /SourceCache
cd /SourceCache
curl -O http://cpan.mirror.solnet.ch/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/IO-1.2301.tar.gz
tar xzf IO-1.2301.tar.gz
cd IO-1.2301
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
Next use CPAN to install Time::HiRes
Finally, if Compress::Zlib cannot be tamed with CPAN, install it manually. Different file, but same procedure as for IO.
HTH,
Alex
P.S. As a rule of thumb, never install an update on a modified system before waiting at least a week to see what issues may crop up. This applies also for stock systems, but in particular for modified systems.

Quark 6.5 Hanging after Security Update 2009-003

Hi There,
New to the forum.
This has happened me before - couple of years back, something to do with Stuffit Preference Pane, doesn't seem to be the same solution.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Two more suggestions:
(a) I know you ran AppleJack to no avail. If you have the original disk that came with your computer, consider running Repair Disk from it.
1. Start from your Mac OS X Install disc: Insert the installation disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, select your language first then go to the Installer menu and select Disk Utility.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
7. Click Repair Disk Permissions
8. Reboot computer, go to Utilities folder, launch Disk Utility and click Repair Disk Permissions.
Afterwards, try launching QuarkXPress
(b) If the issue persists, with Quark off, drag the Quark preferences folder to the desktop and then try launching QuarkXPress.

Security Update 2009-004 Mac OS 10.4 Intel & Keychain permission (Mail etc)

After upgrade above, constantly got KeyChain permission request and no matter how many times you granted it, it kept asking, someone else found the cure this is a synopsis of the answer: (Answer extracted from http://unsanity.org/archives/2007_01.php ; found by BDAqua , thanks for everything!)
For those who are put off by the above website here is what was done to 'Fix KeyChain constantly asking for permission to update as your software has been upgraded" (this occurred after Security Update 2009-004 for 10.4 Intel, could not get mail without that blasted box constantly showing up)
In order to fix this problem if you are having it, just open the Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) and type:
*sudo mv /var/db/CodeEquivalenceDatabase /var/db/CodeEquivalenceDatabase.old*
Hit return, it will ask you if you are serious, if so enter password, well, swallow hard and do it; then re-boot; on re-signing in it asks you for 'Keychain permission to update (in my case Airport) as it has been upgraded, 'curse the stars' and hit yes, *everything will work!* Going to Safari, in my case, it asked for permission, and I gave it and it works fine, same thing for each account in Mail; once okayed it works fine and doesn't keep asking for Keychain permission for more than once!

Great to hear, thanks for the post!
