Make websites with .Mac on another server (problem!)

Hello. I have some problems with iWeb. When I start iWeb it pops up a .Mac popup, I click close and the theme chooser should be there so I can start make a homepage with iWeb. But I can't click the plus sign, neither can I select "New page" or "New site" since they are unselectable in the menu. I have reinstalled iWeb but with no luck.
I have also repaired permissions.
Here are two screenshots of it:

Any suggestions?

Short of reinstalling again, try this...
1. Open up iWeb and leave it open.
2. Open up iPhoto
3. Select a few photos and then click on the iWeb button at the bottom of the window
4. Select "Photo Page" from the menu
If this works, iPhoto should send your selected photos to iWeb, which will then open up a new photo page for you. This action has been known to "reenable" iWeb's functioning.
Here's a page put up by Kabing on this topic...

  • Share DVD-RW with mac os x server 10.4.7

    Hello,
    i've an iBook G3 with Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 installed and a LaCie DVD-RW attached. Is it possible to share and mount the DVD drive through internet and burn data that i've on a PowerBook G4 connected to the same network, with Toast or iTunes?
    thank you
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   the last one PowerBook, 1 Go RAM

    Hi
    Personally I do not have mush experience with netboot
    The 10.4.7 DVD you purchased is possibly the Intel version of OS X Server?
    I would run the combo updater to bring your 10.4.0 version up to the latest and then see if netboot works
    You can download the updater from here-
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxserver10410comboupdateuniversal.htm l
    Edit-
    Whoops you will need the 10.4.7 combo update first before using the above updater, get it here-

  • Problems with Mac OS X Server and webperfcache...

    I'm running Mac OS X server 10.4.11 and I'm trying to get mod_rewrite to work (thus far unsuccessfully). As part of my debugging strategy I want to turn everything around apache off and start pulling things apart to see if I can get them to make sense. When I turn the web performance cache off on all my sites using the site administration utility, apache gets a bus error when it attempts to restart. When I turn web performance caching back on, apache continues to get a bus error. Reboots, et al. don't clear up the problem and all I can do is go back to my system backup and bring up the previous day's version, which I can currently live with.
    Has anybody seen this before? Alternatively, has anybody had problems getting mod_rewrite to work and can give some advice. I'm doing pretty much everything that works on other U*x based systems and has worked before, but the lack of control over the ports used by the web sites on my system is problematic and I would, at the very least, like to be able to turn off webperfcache.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dick Munroe

    I am actually going to be doing almost exactly the same thing in the next 1-2 weeks. My plan is to make the OS X server a BDC on the domain, then promote it to PDC and retire the Windows Server 2k3 PDC.
    I have 1 Win2k3 PDC and 1 Win2k3 (64-bit) Terminal Server. My main worry is whether the PDC is handling the licence CALs for the TS.... if it is, that will interfere with the plan.
    Email me and let's discuss this off-line.

  • Changing from .mac to another server-how to make sure I keep all my emails?

    Sorry if this has been asked before--I couldn't find it in recent threads--,
    Here is my situation: I already have free email service from another server (my DSL provider) but I have kept paying for the .mac email and idisk storage for two years simply because I thought I was going to do great things, I guess.
    I now realize I am too busy to learn enough about setting up my own webpage or whatever, so want to consolidate and save money. I am going to not resubscribe when next year's payment comes due next month, but in the meanwhile, I need to know:
    Should I forward any or all of my (opened and read) mail to my new email/server? Or is it all stored on my iMac anyway, and so only need to send my friends an email telling them of the new address...? I obviously don't want to lose anything.
    Please advise. Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

    Your DSL provider probably does not provide/support an IMAP account - more than likely it is a POP account so there is no need to forward all messages from your .Mac account's Inbox mailbox to your DSL provider's email account which probably much has less server storage space available.
    If you have been accessing your account as a .Mac type account (which is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way), you need to transfer all messages in the account's Inbox mailbox to a user created "On My Mac" location mailbox before the account expires.
    This will store the transferred messages locally on the hard drive and remove the messages from the server at the same time.
    I recommend using the Copy To command vs the Move To command in case something goes wrong with the process.
    At the menu bar, go to Mailbox and select New Mailbox.
    Select "On My Mac" as the location if not already selected, enter a name for the mailbox and select OK to create the mailbox.
    Select a message in the message list for the account's Inbox mailbox and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All to highlight/select all messages in the account's Inbox mailbox.
    At the menu bar, go to Message > Copy To and select the user created "On My Mac" location mailbox.
    This will copy all messages from the server to the user created mailbox. When completed and after confirming all messages were successfully copied to the mailbox, you can delete all messages from the server or leave as is. When the account expires, all messages available on the server will be deleted.
    If you are also saving sent messages on the server, you need to do the same with all sent messages stored on the server and with any other messages stored on the server that you want/need to keep such as and Drafts.
    I would send an email to all contacts in your Address Book informing them of your email address change now and to start using your new email address right away. This way, you will have fewer messages to transfer from the account's Inbox to the user created "On My Mac" location mailbox.
    If you have been accessing your .Mac account as a POP account, you need to do the same with all messages in the account's Inbox and Sent mailbox before deleting the account. When deleting an account with Mail, the account named folder and all associated account mailboxes are also deleted.

  • Best practice to host websites on xserve with mac os x server leopard.

    Hi Guys,
    I'm trying to optimize the xserve to host multiple joomla sites...
    Can some one help me with "hidden manuals or using your experience" about best practices out there...!!
    It'd be great on your part...
    Cheers

    Erm, Joomla site hosting 'just works' with Leopard Server site virtualisation and the built in mysql.
    If you want the best practice try Mac OS X Server Essentials Second Edition which has chapters about setting up multiple web sites.

  • Issues with Mac OS X Server 10.4.8 and Windows File sharing

    We are having lots of issues with our SMB share on Mac OS X Server 10.4.8. The main issues are the following:
    - Group ACLs seem to not work properly, and I have had to add dozens of manual permissions on a per-user basis
    - Often, users open a file in read-only mode, without any reason, and can't modify it
    - Often, users open a file with full write access, but then cannot save it and have to use a "save as function".
    After having looked all over the Internet and on the Apple's discussions forum, it seems like this issue has been around for quite some time now:
    http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?forumID=702&threadID=&q=smbANDpermissions&objID=f702&dateRange=thisyear&userID=&numResults=15&rankBy=10001
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1546867&#1546867
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=647251
    And no real answer/solution has been provided by Apple yet.
    I also looked on Samba related pages, and it seems like these issues were Samba related (both ACL/OpenLDAP and Microsoft Office file handling issues), and the current version of Samba (3.0.23c) seem to have solved lots of issues in these areas:
    http://us1.samba.org/samba/history/samba-3.0.23c.html
    Apple ships Samba 3.0.10 (16 Dec 2004) with 10.4.8, which makes the shipping version at list 15 versions (and 18 months) behind the current Samba release (30 Aug 2006).
    People within the company are obviously quite unhappy with the situation and beyond me looking like a fool for migrating from Windows Server to OS X, I now need to find a solution to the issues.
    I would like to know what is the official and Apple recommended way to solve this issue.
    Kind regards,
    Pejvan
    It seems like Apple is totally ignoring the issues, users are facing with SMB shares, while their emphasize as a selling point how OS X Server is a great "windows file" server.

    Hiya
    Thanks for the reply.
    >Is there a UPS involved?
    I wish there had been. I might not be having to deal with it now! :-)
    >If you boot from the Install Disc & use System Profiler there, does the Same RAM situation? Did you physically >check those slots? Thinking maybe the OS is kicking them out on bootup?
    I've had the following suggested to me on another forum - "My guess on the RAM error is this. You have a processor that wants the RAM to be dual channeled and since it reads both A slot are populated it wants both B slots to be populated. Remove A2 and put it in B1"
    But unless it is degrading performance I'll probably just leave it.
    > Still can't get it to boot from the Clone holding the Option/alt key at bootup?
    I can get it to boot from the Clone using the option key but it's a pretty random event. I can try for ages and then suddenly it'll work. Or it may work first time. It does seems to work more easily after a PRAM zap. The funny thing is that once it is booted up it will re-start in any way I want it to (the boot volume, the clone, a disk, single user mode etc). It is just hard to boot from a full shutdown.
    I'm thinking that if I ca get the start-up issue fixed then I can fix the RAID issue at my leisure and even add the hard-drive that the clone is currently on to the RAID array.
    Thanks again.

  • I am confused with Mac OS X Server Time machine backup plan

    I just purchased a Mac mini with Snow Leopard server. I just start use this Mac mini for home file sharing server, iTune musics, photo processing (under my user/Picture directory) and iPhone coding (under my user/Document directory).
    Since there are some critical personal file in this Mac mini, I am looking for a backup plan.
    Original, I setup Time Machine as my iMac and I though Time Machine will backup everything, especially my photos. So, I enable my Mac mini Time Machine and assign backup to my 1TB external hard drive, it seems works correct.
    But I happen browse this document today the "Apple Documentation for setting up Snow Leopard Server".
    http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/AdvancedServer_Adminv10.6.pdf
    And it seems said Time Machine will not backup everything and it also not mentioned if photos and musics will be backup or not.
    Then I look into my external 1TB hard drive via terminal, it's free space decreased and looks like my data are already backup in this 1TB hard drive.
    So, should I choice another backup plan, like purchase another external RAID and use Carbon Copy Cloner to backup?
    Any suggestion is welcome. TIA.

    Sorry to hear you've had so much trouble with backups
    On the contrary. I have no issues with my backups. What gave you that idea?
    From your post, I guess you know something that CA or Tivoli doesn't.
    If you're referring to my umm... disdain for Retrospect I would have to assume they're aware of the problems running their product on production Mac OS X Servers. It's not hard to find references to people running into problems with it. If they're not aware then their support escalation process needs work.
    Your method may work, but not if you have a site power or fire failure
    OK, you lost me there. Which method are you referring to? replication? That's entirely viable as a protection against power or fire - locate the replica in a different datacenter/office/whatever.
    want to have a cost effective solution (requires complete servers)
    How valuable is your data? How much does downtime cost you?
    How much does a second server cost?
    or have off-site backups (to take one off-site for storage you will have to buy another server)
    See my point above.
    not to mention various compliancy issues
    If you're dealing with any of the major compliancy issues (e.g. SOX, HIPPA, PCI, etc.) then the cost of a replication server is trivial compared to the cost of even thinking about compliance (most consultants charge thousands of dollars just to walk in the door and say 'hi').
    Not to mention that any of the above compliance rules pretty much require replication, and you taking a weekly (or even daily) copy of your disk home with you is just not going to cut it.
    I have been using BRU for some time now
    I have a lot of respect for BRU. One of the better options out there (assuming they fixed the awful UI issues they had in early versions).
    save for having to shut off the sql engine before one short backup
    Thank you for validating my statement - you cannot backup an active server without terminating services that are writing to the disk.
    Of course, in the replication model, you could temporarily stop replication, shut down the service, perform your backups, then restart services/replication (which will automatically catch up with the intermediate changes), while allowing clients to continue talking to the primary server.
    THAT is the definition of performing backups of live data/servers without impacting users.

  • LDAP and NFS mounts/setup OSX Lion iMac with Mac Mini Lion Server

    Hello all,
    I have a local account on my iMac (Lion), and I also have a Mac Mini (Lion Server) and I want to use LDAP and NFS to mount the /Users directory, but am having trouble.
    We have a comination of Linux (Ubuntu), Windows 7 and Macs on this network using LDAP and NFS, except the windows computers.
    We have created users in workgroup management on the server, and we have it working on a few Macs already, but I wasnt there to see that process. 
    Is there a way to keep my local account separate, and still have NFS access to /Users on the server and LDAP for authentification?
    Thanks,
    -Matt

    It would make a great server. Bonus over Apple TV for example is that you have access via both wired ethernet and wireless. Plus if you load tools from XBMC, Firecore and others you have a significant media server. Cost is right too.
    Many people are doing this - google mac mini media server or other for more info.
    Total downside to any windows based system - dealing with constant anti-virus, major security hassels, lack of true media integration and PITA to update, etc.
    You should be aware that Lion Server is not ready for prime time - it stil has significant issues if you are migrating from SNL 10.6.8. If you buy an apple fresh Lion Server mac mini you should have no problems.
    You'll probably be pleased.

  • Can't see volumes with Mac os x server install

    I'm having a problem installing MAC OS X Server on a RAIDed MAC PRO (3 drives @ RAID 5: Here are the steps that I have done so far with no luck: created a RAID level 5 with RAID utility from CLIENT OS install cd that came with mac pro. Created one giant volume with the entire contents of disk space on the RAID with the CLIENT OS install cd/RAID utility also. Rebooted, the MAC PRO, ejected the CLIENT OS cd, inserted MAC OS X server install CD. When I get to the screen where I choose my volume to install the OS on, I can't see any volumes. I was told by Apple and CDW (reseller) to go to disk utility and do an ERASE on the volumes, that should format the drive and should be seen by the OS X Server install. It didn't work. It's interesting that I can install the normal client OS after creating my RAID, Volumes, etc... But the OS X Server install DVD doesn't see the volumes during the install process, OR using disk utility from the OSX server install disk, but disk utility on the MAC OS X client CD sees it fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Does Apple support their RAID card in Mac Pro using Server? or does Server need to be updated? Minimum requirements for Mac Pro RAID card is 10.4.10.
    You could try the cheat method: install everything on a single drive and clone it and see if it works.
    From a discussion yesterday or Monday, only Apple drivers are supported on the Mac Pro (firmware?) and not 3rd party retail drives (a bummer) so you've got nearly $2000.

  • Dell PowerVault MD1000 with Mac OS X Server 10.5 (mac pro with fiber connec

    Hey Guys. Its time that i add a bulk amount of storage to our mac network.
    Currently Our network consists of one mac server which is a Mac Pro with Mac OSX Server 10.5 installed on it with 4 x 750GB Hard Drives with a couple of client machines. I now need to add atleast another 6TB to the network. This needs to be seen as the server as one drive so that 6TB needs to be raid prosume (raid 5)
    Now in the Mac Pro server we have a Fibre Card that we dont currently use with 2 slots. My Plan is to buy a Dell PowerVault™ MD1000 (http://configure.euro.dell.com/dells...ulmd1000sata) and put in the amount of hard drives i require into the Dell Storage.
    Would this work. If i bought the Dell PowerVault™ MD1000, would i beable to hook this upto the mac server and use it as a storage drive? Although i do no networking. Im still very new to this.
    Ideally im looking for something similar to an Xserve Raid, but with out the Apple price tag on the outside if you guys no what i mean.
    Best,
    Nathaniel

    You would at least need a SAS/SATA controller - preferably a hardware RAID one, much like the one bundled with this unit - but it also needs to be OS X compatible.
    I would look for something that is known to work, not something you "cobble" together.
    The FibreChannel card does you no good if you haven't got a device with FC ports.

  • How to spare my HD with Mac OS X Server v10.5 Leopard?

    Hi there,
    I just got my iMac few days ago. I have install Mac OS X Server v10.5 Leopard problem.
    Its any could teach me how can I spare my Hard Drive to show 2 in my desktop, one will be Application App & another will be Storage..
    Its "Mac OS X Server v10.5 Leopard"(computer version) can only use on new mac??

    Ohhh... Okay... You want to partition your hard drive.
    Instructions can be found here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61301
    You must do this while booted from the OS X install DVD and choosing Disk Utility from the Utilties menu. Also be aware that you must back your data prior to changing the partition scheme, as it will reformat the hard drive.

  • RAID 5 with OS recovery another server different hardware

    Hi thanks in advance
    I have a serious problem, is this hope can help me or direccionarme
    We had a server with RAID May 4 full disks, raid hardware, in this arrangement the operating system, weblogic, oas, base data base software and data files, and others are included.
    The server was Red Hat 4 update 3 we know the distribution and mounting points.
    now the server is physically damage are only 4 disks, mount the arregloo quicimos another server but the hardware is different. We are at the point where we import the raid 5, and got on the new server but does not rise. we tested with a bootable linux from CD discs and can see but can not access the raid.
    Any idea that we can provide.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    raid hardware
    It is like Dude said, and of course must have the same driver version.

  • Since installing Mac Mavericks all my friends with Macs and I have problems with the cursor disappearing, only in Firefox, Safari is fine...

    I have stopped using Firefox as nothing I have done has fixed this problem. I have tried shutting down Firefox and rebooting it, I cleared all my add-ons and then added adblock back (that's the only one) but it still doesn't work. I've deleted large files so that I have more space - I can't think of anything else that will work. I have spoken to four of my friends with Macs and they are all having the same problem with Firefox since Mavericks.

    Hi thanks very much for your reply. I did a few things like delete my add-ons and I don't have the problem of the disappearing cursor (sounds like a Sherlock Holmes story) any more but it seems to have been a mac issue as there were many complaints on the Apple forums of the cursor disappearing since the Mavericks OS and not just in Firefox but in multiple programs. Looks like they've fixed it somehow!
