Print the Server, App and Db in Excel

Is there anyway to get essbase to place the server, application, and database name on an excel sheet? I would imagine something like a function in the vba commands would be perfect. I happen to have a great deal of data spread accross a variety of servers, applications, and databases (for a variety of reasons) and it would often be helpful to know exactly the source of a given report.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It is definitely possible using the Essbase API, but unfortunately I don't think there is a way to extract this information using only the Essbase Excel VBA Toolkit. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong)For the API you will want to first use the VBA Toolkit function EssVGetHctxFromSheet to get the Essbase context handle. Next you will want to use EsbGetActive to return the Application and Database names. Finally you will want to use EsbGetApplicationInfo to return the Server name. Let me know if you have any further questions or have any problems using these functions,- Jay---------------------------Jay NishSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity SystemsEmail: [email protected]: www.claritysystems.com---Message Posted by trainoj 3/19/02 14:22---Is there anyway to get essbase to place the server, application, and database name on an excel sheet?

No permission to access the server app and Timemachine Backup failed

Problem:
Mac Mini Server late 2009 running OSX Server 10.6xx for years without any problem,
upgrading to Mavericks Server in Dec. 2013, running perfectly for 6 month.
No Hardware issues.
Last week i inadvertently deleted some (or most?) accounts (user and others), using the gui of the server app (and too much wine for myself).
After that i couldn’t login the app anymore, because it needs administrator rights (which were deleted).
This all caused problems by accessing some of the running services (e.g. Calendar, Adressbook, Wiki, Mail)
No matter - TimeMachine always did a fine backup job, i thought.
I restarted the machine using „command - r“, selected Recovery from TM-Backup and so on.
But after recovering and restarting the OS always hangs on reboot.
Ok - now i can do a clean install etc.
But has anyone any idea how to get back all the data of the services and the user accounts etc., using the corresponding parts of the Time Machine backup only? (Only local accounts, no network accounts/no open directory)

After reading one similar post, I've solve the problem.
It seems that I have to enable 'read and write' permission on
my site root folder.

Radius, Server App, and Airport Extreme (not visible)

In the help system online it states "In the Server app sidebar, select your AirPort device. The AirPort device is listed in the Hardware section of the sidebar. If you want users to log in to your wireless network with their user account credentials, select “Allow user name and password login over Wi-Fi". Well, that is nice, but nothing I can do allows it to show up in the hardware section of the sidebar! Now I have configured it through the "Server Admin" tool, but it is kind of frustrating that all of the documentation points to the Server App and right clicking on the Airport device... Thoughts? Is there something I missed on the Airport configuration to allow it to be seen by the Server App?

Your Airport Device has to have the right configuration to show up in the server.app sidebar. Otherwhise server.app can´t manage the airport device.
Here is an support page where you can find out how the configuration has to be, if you want to manage your airport device with server.app: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Server/10.7/en/t_ManageAirPort.html

hi
could you tell us what the other app is please

While trying to access my local network I get the message..."The page could not be opened because server cannot be found." This, after updating to Yosemite and paying (again) for the server app.

It's absolutley scandalous that a company with Apple's resources can let this happen. They should have staggered the release by region rather than opening the flood gates. The upgrade itself took me about 10 attempts to download it, and then I thought I was home free. That was until it rebooted and won't activate. It's over 2 hours now.
Scandalous!

Is there any way to get the server app other that through the app store. We do not have our system conneted to a network. I typical downloaded items on a non-apple system.

is there any way to get the server app other than through the app store. The system that I need it on are not connected to the internet.
We run a closed-loop network of apple systems and I tipically downloaded updates on a non-apple system that was on the internet.
Any ideas?

I did buy the server app, went to the app store to download it. This system I'm using for downloads is Snow Leopard 10.6.8, it shows that I can download it but only as an Install which says I need 10.8. I can't seem to find a way for it to just download as a package or .dmg file so that I can copy it to DVD/CD or flash drive.

Which services in the Server app use PostgreSQL?

I want to use Postgres.app for PostgreSQL and move my databases currently on the Apple installed instance. The documentation states that it works best if there is only one active instance of PostgreSQL.
I currently use the latest version of the Mavericks Server app for DNS and Websites (for now). I know that at one time Websites was using PostgreSQL. I would like to know if I can turn of postgres and still use the DNS service. I think I can figure out how to host my one website in Apache.
For future projects I would like to know which services in the Server app use PostgreSQL.

Look at the WiFi selection in System Information and it will tell you.

How can I filter alerts shown in the Server app?

In the time I've been running OS X Mavericks Server, the only alert to come up in the Server app's Alerts pane is "Virus detected in inbound email". That's about as surprising as finding that water is wet, so I'd like not to see those alerts. I don't want to turn off the email filtering, I just want don't want to hear about this one kind of event.
How can I filter the alerts in general or this one in particular?

Hi ephraimephraim
I dont know if you found a solutions, but I hit the same problem so here is what I worked out...
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Server/Mail/Config/amavisd
In there you will find a file called amavisd.conf
Make a backup copy of this just incase! Now open the file using TextWrangler (its free from here http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/download.html).
Now scroll down to line 119 and it will look like this:
#$virus_admin              = "[email protected]"; # notifications recip.
#$spam_admin               = '[email protected]';
#$spam_quarantine_to       = '[email protected]';
#$banned_quarantine_to      = '[email protected]';
#$virus_quarantine_to      = '[email protected]';
What I waneted to do was stop the useless "Virus detected in inbound email" emails and just send a copy of the emails to one account that I could keep an eye on, so this is what I did.
First deside on a alias to use, such as [email protected],
Now you can insert that like this virus-admin\@$mydomain its relly is important to add the \@$mydomain this resolves up the top of the file so it should now look like this
#$virus_admin              = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
#$spam_admin               = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
#$spam_quarantine_to       = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
#$banned_quarantine_to      = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
#$virus_quarantine_to      = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
now delete the # notifications recip. after the virus_admin to stop the Virus Notifications, then I deleted the # before the spam_quarantine_to, banned_quarantine_to, virus_quarantine_to this "turns on" the line and then add # notifications recip. after them, so you should end up with
#$virus_admin              = "virus-admin\@$mydomain";
#$spam_admin               = "virus-admin\@$mydomain";
$spam_quarantine_to       = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
$banned_quarantine_to      = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
$virus_quarantine_to      = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
Now just create a user on the server called virus-admin of add it as an alias using Workgroup Manger.
Hope this helps

HT4886 When I go to download the server app am I going to have to pay for it?

I just purchased 3 MacMini Servers, I am going to make the volumes RAID, with that I need to reinstall, and go out and download the Server App. Am I going to be required to pay for it, or will it somehow recognise that the computer came with the Server software on it originally?

If apple knew your Apple ID when you bought the servers, and you registered those computers with the same Apple ID, then it will automatically know that you are entitled to three copies of the Server app.
However, this often doesn't happen right because they didn't match up the Apple ID on the purchase. So make sure you have your order number(s) for the three servers and phone Apple's support number for those sales (should be on the order acknowledgement) and they'll fix it for you over the internet.

Defining Virtual Hosts so the Server App does not hijack them?

Does anyone know how one might define manually define virtualhosts in Lion Server so the OS does not go and trash them, or mess with the conf files? Right now the server keeps stealing any virtual hosts I create manually and creating conf files to the standard of the Server App. The problem is I have several virtual hosts that have custom information in them and I need to restore the file whenever this happens. Any ideas?

Put all your config files in something unknown to Apple. I like to use 'vhosts' instead of 'sites'.
Then just add this to your httpd.conf...
Include /private/etc/apache2/vhosts/*.conf
I would keep a copy of your httpd.conf at all times. Apple likes to wipe that out on system updates.

Does the server app need to stay open?

Probably a dumb question, but do I need to keep the Server.app running at all times?
Our server is a Mac Mini that doubles as a workstation. Do I only need the Server app to set up/ start/ manage services, or does it need to be open all the time?

Server.app is "just" the GUI interface to the services. You can start or stop Server.app as and when needed. The services themselves won't be effected.

Can't turn on open directory in the server app

hi, i can't turn on open directory in the server app, I am running the new version of Mavericks (10.9.2)
please help me

If DNS services aren't properly configured and operating correctly, then various other parts of the OS X Server environment tends to be somewhere between flaky and unstable.
To verify DNS is working correctly, launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities and issue the following harmless diagnostic command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
You'll need to enter an administrative password for the sudo, might see a one-time message about the use of sudo, then see some configuration information, and then an indication that no changes are required, or that there are issues with the network or with local DNS services. This tool will spot most local DNS and network errors, but will not spot an erronous configuration using the .local top-level domain; don't do that.
If you do not have another DNS server on your local network — the screen shot shows DNS isn't running locally, but it's possible there's another DNS server in use. If you do not have a local DNS server (and you're on a NAT'd network) here's how to set up DNS on a NAT'd network — DNS is essential for proper operations of OS X Server, and on a private NAT'd network, that's only possible with your own DNS services. You cannot successfully reference off-network DNS servers here (not the DNS servers at your ISP, nor at Google, and not via a low-end firewall that might have a DNS resolver, etc), as these off-NAT'd network DNS servers do not return the necessary IP-address-to-domain-name translations necessary for your hosts. These name-to-address and address-to-name DNS translations are part of distributed authentication and network encryption.

Webmail is turned off. You can turn it on by using the Server app on the server.

Not sure why this suddenly happened. Nothing has really changed on this server. The web IS on (hence receiving the message above) and I have "Enable PHP web applications" checked. Mail is routing fine. Just not sure why the webmail suddenly quit working. I ran the "/System/Library/ServerSetup/CommonExtras/PostgreSQLExtras/WebmailServerSetup.s h" and it completed but no luck. Is there a script to reset just the webmail?

So, I've done some more digging. Thank you Apple, for thoughtfully providing documentation on your included software! All you told me was that to enable webmail I had to check one box in the Server App.
Sigh.
Okay, rant off. It's pretty obvious from the log entries I posted that both a user and a database are missing from postgres. After some searching I found an INSTALL document, that says this:
* PostgreSQL
To use Roundcube with PostgreSQL support you have to follow these
simple steps, which have to be done as the postgres system user (or
which ever is the database superuser):
$ createuser roundcube
$ createdb -O roundcube -E UNICODE roundcubemail
$ psql roundcubemail
roundcubemail =# ALTER USER roundcube WITH PASSWORD 'the_new_password';
roundcubemail =# \c - roundcube
roundcubemail => \i SQL/postgres.initial.sql
All this has been tested with PostgreSQL 8.x and 7.4.x. Older
versions don't have a -O option for the createdb, so if you are
using that version you'll have to change ownership of the DB later.
Okay, good...except it doesn't tell me how to get to the $ prompt for entering the first set of commands. On a hunch I tried just typing "postgres" at the command prompt and got this:
postgres does not know where to find the server configuration file.
You must specify the --config-file or -D invocation option or set the PGDATA environment variable.
I Googled that whole section as my search item and about the only relevant thing I got was info on how to set one's environment variables--which I already know how to do. What I don't know is where this variable is supposed to point.
Okay, I'm at my limit, I've run out of fingers to hold on various bullet points. Is there some clear, concise how-to on setting all this up that doesn't assume I already know half this stuff?

Can't Access my server from the Server App

Upgraded to Lion Server, everything seemed to go OK. Now, for some reason, I can't access the settings from the Server app. It asks for a passowrd, and it won't take it. I can reboot the server, log in just fine. But entering in my username and passowrd in the Server app, no dice.
Thoughts???

Got it. This thread helped!
Thanks!
