HT6172 Server Update v3.1.1: How does one get past the Updating Services screen: "The server is being updated on this Mac"?

Upon opening Server after the update has installed, it simply hangs for hours on end (more than 5 hours) on the above screen, with the progress bar showing about 1/3 complete. Please help!

-update-
Did not yet completely reset the server. (It's not mine… it's from a customer so completely resetting the server is really the last thing he wants to be done…)
but I've digged deeper into the problem and the logs.
Test: renaming the .plist files mentioned in the arcticle about resetting the server
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.serverd.plist > /Library/Preferences/com.apple.serverd-old.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.servermgrd.plist > /Library/Preferences/com.apple.servermgrd-old.plist
This triggers also a 'new setup' from the server instead of 'updating services'.
And even now the configuration of the server halted on the same place in the logs!
It's always in the part with 70_calendarcommonextra.py

and then some lines below
calendarcommonextra: Apr 16 11:36:48 Service was not previous enabled
and the it stops, and keeps waiting forever…
Then I've tried to expermiment a little bit in the /Library/Server folder with renaming some folder to see if thsi could solve the problem. (Because the folders are getting recreated with default settings and data). So I've renamed "Calendar and Contacts" and tested: No success. I've renamed "PostgreSQL" and tested: No success. …
When I read some articles about these problems most of the time the problem seems to be related to some 3th party from specific software is installed, like when someone installed another version of Python instead of using Apple's. The upgrade process does not seem to like this and freezes.
A quick look in the Downloads folder of this specific server showed an installer of pgAdmin, used to configre/control PostGreSQL databases… so -in this case- this was installed by another external company to do somehting on that server which I don't know what it does .
But for now, I've pinpointed the problem. The original PostGreS of OS X Server on this server is tampered/overwritten by another PostGreSQL and this will be the reason why the update does not work.
I have to phone that other company next week to see if they are aware of this issue, and hopefully they know how to fix this.
bottom line
reading the ServerSetup.log is the first thing to do!

Yosemite Mail deleted all my outgoing server settings. Any way to retrieve them?

Yosemite Mail deleted all my outgoing server settings. Any way to retrieve them?

What is your email provider (e.g Gmail, Microsoft, Yahoo, Comcast, AT&T, etc...), and what email client software are you using (Apple Mail, Thunderbird, Outlook, etc)?
It's likely far easier to just Google the correct settings for your mail provider and recreate the outgoing (SMTP) settings.

My email server is pop3, but Apple's Mail Settings Lookup is showing it as an IMAP. Any ideas how to get Apple showing the correct details?

Leave feedback for Apple at www.apple.com/feedback, or contact your email provider. It's the email providers that give that info to Apple, so both parties need to be updated.

TS3276 mail settings lookup shows imap when i am using pop3

I am having problems with my mail settings, I use macbook pro OS X 10.9, I also have an ipad as does my wife. Recently I have noticed that when my wife or I delete a message it deletes from both ipads. I have checked my settings and made sure we are using pop3 account but when I check my mail settings lookup it shows that i am using imap.
I have deleted the account on my laptop in mail and set up another ensuring the settings for pop a/c are correct but this seems to have no effect.
How can I change this?
any help is appreciated
Thank you
Keith

You are, in fact, using IMAP. Whether you can use POP instead depends on your mail service provider.

Check the account settings for the outgoing server "(null)"?

I try to send emails to myself with the attachment of a picture so I can view it on my computer without having to plug it in, because it is synced with another computer. However every time I have tried to send a photo it is unable to send, and it says 'Check the account settings for the outgoing server "(null)"'
Can anybody help and tell me what this means?
Thanks

That means you have an error in the setting for the outgoing server.
You need to correct that error.

Trying to call a Webservice - "Settings for the J2EE Server do not exist."

Hi, we're on SAP ECC 6.0 and I'm trying to get access to a webservice:
BAPI converted to Webservice ok
Webservice activated ok
http active ok
WSADMIN - click on the WSDL button - browser launches, user id requested, userid given, WSDL displays perfect! Even tested from the outside.
WSADMIN - click on the Web service homepage - Settings for WDSL generation (RPC or Document style, same result) - Error - "Settings for the J2EE Server do not exist."
Internet browesr - I go to the URL for the WSDL - works again perfect!
Internet browesr - I go to the URL - error ! <faultstring xml:lang="en">SOAP processing failure, error id = 112 </faultstring>
Are the two errors the same?
Do I have to have a J2EE server to enable Webservices?
Is this a complex system change?
Is there a workaround?
Thanks for any tips on getting Webservice to function
Philip

hi,
when the WAS ABAP has a webserver running and the WSDL service up and running (WSDLs are created dynamically) you get the WSDL served from WAS ABAP.
"Webservice homepage" is an application written in Java and running on WAS Java., So, if you want to use that application you have to have a WAS JAVA up and running, you have to have the application 'Webservice homepage' up and running and of course on WAS ABAP you have to have the URL of the WAS JAVA specified to enable the WSADMIN function to link you to the Java app.
Most probably you do not even have a WAS Java running and/or the application 'webservice homepage" not set up. Either way, in my opinion the application "webservice homepage" is crap anyway (because it is not really independent. if SAP implements something strangely on the server side they of course implement it the same way on the client/testing side, so you never find out that in real world scenarios e.g. no client understands the feature X the way SAP implemented it). use any non-SAP-tool to test your SAP webservices, e.g. XML Spy, or SOAPUI.
my 2 cents,

I changed my server at the end of May & all worked well until the past week end since when I am getting a message saying that I cannot get email because the server will not connect - although it does. It also claims that it was last backed up on Friday last despite having had several emails since Friday. What has happened & can I get email back to normal?

Hi adamsfly,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you changed your email address and iCloud is looking to sign in with the old Apple ID email. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

I wish to reset my ipad. However, when I selectGeneral Reset Erase all content and Settings, I am prompted for a a Restrictions Passcode (which I have never set). I have now entered random codes 11 times and the ipad not reset. How do I get past this?

I wish to reset my ipad (as advised by the Apple Store) to attempt to resolve an issue with a non-responsive part of the screen.. However, when I select General>Reset>Erase all content and Settings, I am prompted for a a Restrictions Passcode (which I have never set). I have now entered random codes 11 times and the ipad has not reset. How do I get past this? I am now at the point where I have to wait 60 mins before I can enter another random passcode. I just want the ipad to clear down, erase everything so I can start again.

The other option is to force iPad into Recovery Mode.

I updated my ipod and now it says my ipod can't be activated because activation server cannot be reached. How do I get it back on track?

Hello,
Try reseting your device.
Hold the power button and the home button down until the device shuts off, then power it back on and see if the problem is resolved.
I just refreshed your post, so if this does not help you, it is now at the top of the list for a short while, other people should be able to try and help you.

Contact Whatsapp for support.
There is no logical expectation for Whatsapp to be listed under location services or for that to have any affect on what the app can access.
