Messages - no user is allowed to login after server reboot

Hello all together,
I had to reboot a XServe with Mac OS X 10.8.3 and Server App 2.2.1 installed using the command line because I couldn't connect via ARD anymore at that time and the users couldn't login at all with their OD accounts.
After the reboot no user was able to login to the messages server which wasn't any problem before this reboot. "User ID or password is wrong". The messages service in server.app is running. I restarted it twice without any advance. The passwordservice server log shows up all requests and the passwordservice error log has no entries at all. I couldn't find any related entries in any of the logs I searched in, especially not in the system.log.
The users trying to login are local network users which are allowed to use this service and are all members of one group which is also allowed to use this service.
If I turn the messages service off and try it again I get the same error. Therefor I can't even say if the service is definitely running but port 5223 is opened.
Any suggestions?
I really appreciate your help!
Kind regards,

Hello,
for information purposes:
A second server reboot resolves this issue!
Thanks!

  • Oracle 10G Db Starts-up After Server Reboot, BUT Goes DOWN After Some Time

    Hi All,
    I am really puzzled over this one. I have couple of servers running DB on them and I have used scripts to auto-enable them when server(s) reboot.
    But there is one server where I see this funny behavior.
    The DB comes-up after server reboot.
    I can verify that in the startup logs and some more logs that I created.
    I can see that LISTENER is able to communicate also.
    But after a while, the DB shuts-down....!!
    I have checked all the places I could. I have also tried to see the difference between this server and others (I did not install this one), but can not see any difference.
    Is there anyway to find out (log) what is shutting down the DB??
    Any help will be much appreciated as I am at my wits end.
    Following is snap-shot from my logs:

    We are noticing that if you define Music on hold for the Park service, the call park music on hold reverts to default sound after server reboot. (all systems we've tested do this)
    Anyone using park music on hold that can verify one way or the other?

  • Executing 2nd command after server rebooted & related services started

    hi friends
    i am creating a PS script containg two lines:
    the first line executes dcpromo /unattend:c:\answerfile.txt to create a new domain controller
    the second line will disable domain password complexity which is: 
    set-executionPolicy -identity mydomain.lab -complexityenabled $false -minimumpasslength 5
    the problem is i need after first line of the script, executed, server be rebooted & the 2nd line 
    be executed after server rebooted & whey AD services started, this script continue to run the next line.
    is it ossible in powershell?
    thanks in advanced

    You won't be able to do that in the same script.
    You can use a second script that waits for the AD services to start, and then sets the password policies and run that script after the restart using the RunServicesOnce key:
    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/179365?wa=wsignin1.0
    Use the first script to set that key and then do the restart after the DC promo is finished.

  • Databases are not coming up after server reboot(sun solaris).

    Hi
    OS - Sun OS 5.10 local zone. RDBMS version - 11.2.0.3
    Databases are not coming up after server reboot.
    We have verified the below points.
    Cat/etc/init.d/oracle
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oradism file permissions are 4550.
    lock_sga is parameter set to false.
    cat /var/opt/oracle/oratab entries are set to Y
    Still Databases are not coming up after server reboot.
    Please advise.

    Hi,
    Can you post further information from alert log. Doesn't coming up, means you needs to share the information some thing about your environmente settings about kernel parameter and init$ORACLE_SID parameters details.
    That would be easy for others to look into it further to analyze things.

  • Users have to enter licence server name after server reboot

    Hi all,
    After every reboot of their server, every users of my customer have to enter the licence server name to be able to connect to SAP. Any idea why it's happening ? Is their a file where the name of the server is saved which could be deleted ?
    Thanks
    Charles Froment

    Hi
    did you change the IP address?
    did you change any hardware piece in the server?
    In the client you can find a file called b1-current-user.xml in Application Data\SAP\SAP Business One folder.
    Open this file, and if it corrupted delete it. SBO will create another with the right configuration.
    Kind regards

  • How clusterware restarts on automatically after server reboot in 11g R2

    Hi,
    I would like to know how the cluster restarts on automatically after the server reboot in 11g R2 RAC . The oracle restart feature in 11g R2 help to restart the components like databases, ASM in case of abnormal failure.

  • Database Down after Server Reboot

    Hello
    I am getting a weird problem after I reboot my server (windows 2003) where by my database (10.2) does not automatically start. To get it to start I have to go into administrative tools >> services and then manually restart the OracleASMService+ASM (it says it is already running).
    Thanks in advance for any Idea's/suggestions

    Right;
    After rebooting the server and lauching the OEM Database Control it tells me the following:
    - Database Instance = Down
    - Listener = Up
    - Agent Connection to Instance = Failed ORA-12505: TNS:Listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor(DBD ERROR: OCIServerAttach)
    In response to your troubleshooting suggestions;
    1. alert.log has no new errors logged in the past week
    2. As far as I can tell, yes. It says the service (and other associated oracle services) are running
    3. No I can not connect to the database with sql*plus (before I restart the OracleASMService+ASM). SQL*Plus errors:
    ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
    ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
    After I restart the service I can connect without any problems.
    4. N/A
    I appreciate any help you can offer on this matter.

  • Automatically start VMs after server reboot

    Hello,
    I use a OVM server (3.0.3) without clustering, and I'm doing failure simulations before going to production.
    When the server reboots after a electrical failure, all VM are in "offline" state, and I need to acknowledge all events before be able to start them (thanks the forum for this information).
    I would like to automatically boot the VM after the reboot, is there a way to do this ?
    Thanks,
    TM

    Have you tried to put a symlink to the vm.cfg in /etc/xen/auto? That works independent of VM Manager. I beleive VM Manager will update the machine to running in that situation. If not, at least your machines are running while you sort out the problems with VM Manager.
    ln -s /OVS/Repository/<repositoryUUID>/VirtualMachines/<vmUUID>/vm.cfg /etc/xen/auto/<simplename>
    Where repositoryUUID (hopefully the only one because the manager doesn't display it)
    vmUUID shows as ID on the Info page for the VM
    simplename is any name you like. I chose the name that shows as Name on the machine's Info page.
    Let us know if the Manager figures it out OK or if you have to jump through some hoops to get it to show "running" for these VMs.

  • Oracle database performance after server reboot

    hi masters,
    this is not some kind of question, but a discussion. some statements come from our client that after weekly reboot of system, the oracle database performance is low for some time and increase after some time(say 2 days).
    i think it is but obvious, because at reboot oracle flushes all cache, and temporary space, so it need to re parse the sql statements and perform some disc I/O's so it might need some time and hence performance will degrade.
    but at the same time some people claim that after reboot their database performance is better than their normal performance for some days. it seems controversial that's why i am posting it here.
    what might be the reason behind this?? prior can have a valid reason of hard parsing, but what with second case??
    any clarification is highly appreciated...
    thank you

    Vikrant,
    You should wait for some time buddy, its weekend ;-) .

    >
    I would start from saying that checking the performance when the system just started, is a wrong approach. There would be lots of IOs , parsing, calculations(related to memory allocations) happening so there would be a delay/bad performance at that time. Very simple example can be parsing, another can be memory allocation. Oracle doesn't allocate the entire memory in the instance startup that is allocated to the memory areas but allocates just the bare minimum that is needed to start the instance and than after the startup, it keeps on allocating the memory. So surely enough, with the startup and after a while of it, there would be a different performance than that after the instance hsa already been started and the workload informations have started coming up.
    Its correct that Oracle would deallocate all the caches with the reboot as the instance is on the memory(physical) and with the reboot , that would be flushed including the SGA which is allocated over it. Temporary tablespace is now not freed with the reboot. I guess its a rather illogical thing to do but that's what is there now. Oracle keeps the segment allocated even after the reboot is issued, hence the reason for larger temporary tablespaces.

    >
    This should not come as a surprise once we understand what might be happening with this process. Assume a situation where you have undersized caches. For example, shared pool . which is very heavily used for database , if this is going to be undersized and you are not using automatic memory management, you won't be enjoying the dynamic management of this parameter. Now, if you do lots of parsing , thanks to your wrongly written queries, you would eventually end up filling up shared pool to its max thus leaving no space for incoming new hard parsed cursors. Here , if you can't manage to add more memory to add to it, the only solution left would be to flush the shared pool( as good as rebooting the db because this would do the same) and than make space for the new cursors. The performance is going to be better becausethe cursors would not be getting flushed out immediately and will be kept in the shared pool as long as its not filled up again.Once you have reached to limit of it, again there would be performance benefit. So there are always odds added to the statements like this that I rebuilt my index , I got better, I rebooted my server, my querie are much faster now. Most of the time when these kind of statements are given, they are based on what we have seen, without understading what actually might have happened. So I would siggest to hear the statement but not take them as a rule of thumb to follow.
    Hope this all makes some sense for you and would help somewhat.

  • Unable to bring up crs on rac node 2 after server reboot

    Hi,
    We have a 2 node rac architecture. We are only able to bring up Node 1 on the cluster, whereas node 2 is failing. Here are some points::
    1. After the server reboot, node 2 crs crs/resources weren't starting up apart from OHAS.
    2. We again stopped both the CRS and tried bringing up CRS on node 2 initially and succeeded. But now node 1 wasn't coming up.
    3. Again brought down both nodes' CRS and tried bringing up CRS on node1 and succeded but asm wasn't showing the Diskgroups. So we changed pfile to include asm_diskstring from ORCL* to /dev/oracleasm/disks and we could lsdg in asm now.So started all the instances from node 1 now. Apart from this, again node 2 CRS wasn't starting. From alertlog I saw "CRS-1714:Unable to discover any voting files, retrying discovery in 15 seconds;". But we were able to query voting disks initially. What has gone wrong now??

  • Only Guest user is available to login after updates.

    Hello,
    One day i was editing a picture and listening to my music on iTunes, then the mac software updater pops a window out, saying that i needed to restart my computer to conclude all the four updates that he downloaded. So i saved my picture and clicked on "restart". Mac closed my profile and there was only one window left that was installing the updates (like all other updates i ever did). When mac finished this, he restarted. After restart, when i was about to grab the mouse to click my profile icon, it disappeared (i had 2 admin accounts and both disappeared at that same moment). Then the Guest account was the only one left. I restarted computer and because guest was the only account mac automatically asked me for the password to enter Guest account!
    Awkward.. Guests have no password... so i clicked on the button saying "Back" to check if my accounts were there. And there was nothing but Guest... I clicked Guest this time and it logged in without asking me for the password. Every time i reboot he asks for that password (is not none of the admins passwords) and i have to click on Back and click again on guest to enter without pass...
    Inside guest account i don't have any privileges and when he asks me to put an admin password to access some program none of the admins passwords are accepted!
    And thats my problem.
    I wrote this topic in this guest account because i have no other computer, and if i go to a computer store they will probably make me spend a lot of money.
    PS: I have no installation CD (computer went to repair and they installed SnowLeopard in the process giving me no CD or anything at the end).
    (I have important files on my missing admin account)
    I really hope that someone is able to help me!
    Thank You all for helping me, i hope you can do something for me.

    Also having the same issue, although i wasn't updating at the time, was just doing a restart/refresh.
    You should be able to still see your account in your user directory (even from your guest account), if so then grab yourself another mac and target disk your broken one to the one thats working http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661 - after doing the your old mac should load itself on the other mac asthough it were an external HD. You can should be able to drag and drop your files and retrieve any files/folder no already backed up (that is if you dont/ haven't run TimeMachine.
    Now you're at my stage, i am hoping that a reinstall will fix. Pain in the backside to have to kinda start over. The files i have on my MacMini aren't to precious (as i use it mostly as a Plex server). This is a fairly extreme measure to goto and please hut around for possible Single User Mode fixes is you dont feel like this is right for you. Hopefully this will at least enable you to get your files back.
    Dont forget to grab your user>username>Library>Mail folder in order to keep all email.

  • Slim configuration: allow auto login after first login exits

    Hello Everyone,
    I am new to archlinux, and am totally loving it so far.  I am configuring slim for auto login and have been successfully able to do so.  However, the first time I logout I am presented with a slim login prompt.  Is there a way to disable that and just login with the default user again?  I need this because I would be running this on an unattended machine (kiosk like) and I want my program to start all over again in case it crashes or something.
    Thanks in advance,
    verma

  • Local user not allowed in OS X server

    After installing OS X Server 3.03, I now notice when I am logged into the Mac Mini hosting the server, I am not allowed to log in as a local user. This change in user permissions completely defeats the reason for me to have the server running, namely the ability to log into the machine from within my home or outside via VPN. Why am I not allowed to log in on the local network and is there a way to change something so I can?

    I'm not sure I understand what this means:
    when I am logged into the Mac Mini hosting the server, I am not allowed to log in as a local user
    Please clarify.
