Problem installing Sun One DS 5.2

I'm having a little trouble installing the iPlanet Directory Server 5.2 on Solaris 9. I get the error:
error: initialization failure:Unable to initialize the NSS subcomponent.
Configuration of the Directory Server failed.
Error Directory Server configuration failure
Checking connection to the Configuration Directory Server... failed.
The Admininistration Server cannot be configured.
Error Administration Server configuration failure
Error Configuration of the server(s) failed.
Unfortunately, I cannot the reason of this error and I can't find anthing about that in the Sun documentations.
Has anyone gotten this to work successfully? Thanks in advance!

Did the packages install correctly?
If yes, run the following command to configure a DS instance:
/usr/ds/v5.2/sbin/directoryserver configure -debugMessage | tee config.out
This will turn on lots of debug info and send it to a file called config.out. This should help you determine your problem.

Problem installing Sun ONE Studio 4 update 1, Community Edition

I recently downloaded the Sun ONE Studio 4 update 1, Community Edition and tried to install it. At one point it searches for a valid JAVA 2 SDK. This seems to go on forever. I quit after 5 hours of waiting. I already have Java 2 standard edition v1.4.1 installed. Can someone please help?

Well thanks Chuck!
With a bit of messing around and a LOT of patience I finally installed Sun ONE Studio update 1 on my laptop pc, running Windows ME.
The trick was (I think) to apply both of the above fixes, but also a couple of things that was not quite as evident.
1 - Do NOT install the SDK in "C:\Program Files\" or any directory path that contains spaces in the name! Apparently that causes problems, and is noted in one of the Knowledge Base articles.
2- When making the file noted in the Knowledge Base:
( http://forte.sun.com/cgi-bin/WebX?[email protected]@.ee815f4 )
- It says: Contents of this new file should be:.
jh=<jdk Home Path> (for example, jh=c:\j2sdk1.4.0_01)
Well it does NOT mention that there should be 2 lines in that file!
Make sure you include a carriage return and a second "blank" line!
OK, that's it. GO ahead & loose yourself in the IDE.
I hope this does not cause undue traffic in the forums but what the heck...

Problems installing Sun ONE Web Server 7.0 on an x86 with Solaris 10

Hope, you are considering Sun Web Server 6.1 (formerly known as iPlanet Enterprise Server ) for this task. Yes, it is possible to host multiple instances of web server on a same machine.
you can create multiple instances using our GUI. here is the pointer to our docs on how to do this - http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-6512/6n8h7gq1n?a=view#bhabr
If you are willing to give Sun Java System Web Server 7 (our latest release - http://www.sun.com/webserver) , then you can do this by CLI as well.
sun one portal server 3.0 - is a very old release. Are you sure, is this what you want to run ?
hope this helps

Problems while installing Sun ONE Directory Server.

Hi all,
I'm a newbie to LDAP amd my problem is -
When I started Installing SunONE DS on machine first time, at the end of the installation, it thrown an error message.
"The program cant start because nss3.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
Later, I copied nss3.dll file to "C:\Windows\System32" and then started the installation then it thrown error again as follows -
"Configuration of the Directory Server failed.
Error Directory Server configuration failure
Checking connection to the Configuration Directory Server... failed.
The Administration Server cannot be configured.
Error Administration Server configuration failure
Error Configuration of the server(s) failed.
Click Next to continue. "
What is the reason behind this?

Bingo, It worked. Yup, I'm using SODS 5.2, I have copied all .dll files from nsbasesystem.zip to "C:\Windows\System32".
but now the problem is -
Sun One Directory server service is running
but
Sun ONE Administration server process is not running
I have tried to start it manually but it didn't worked. It initiates the starting of process and then suddenly shows error message that
"The Sun ONE Administration server 5.2 service on local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."

Problem Re-Installing Sun One App Server 7 on Solaris 8

I will try my best to describe my problem.
I successfully installed Sun One App Server 7 Standard Edition on Solaris 8. It was installed on a mounted secondary hard disk. That hard disk has since gone bad. I bought a new hard disk and have that mounted.
I want to install Sun One App Server 7 again. I am installing through the GUI, but do not the options to install the server even though it is completely gone. I guess the installer seems to think that the product is already installed, even though the previous hard disk with all of the application server files are gone. Is there any way to uninstall or remove the installed status of the application server so I can reinstall?
Thanks.

Thanks! I tried the prodreg tool and found the Application Server node, and clicked Uninstall. It went through an uninstall process. Even though it came back with an error, the re-install process after worked great. Thanks again.

Superuser without privileges installing Sun One Studio in Debian Linux

i am trying to install Sun One Studio in my Debian Linux and when i launch the setup application it tells me that i must log in as superuser to install. Well, the thing is that i launch the installer as root, but the program doesn't seem to think the same :)
Surprisingly, the log file doesn'l show any related error; it only shows a warning about some widgets... so this seems to be a simple bug in the installer.

Process.conf file not found after installing Sun One Portal Server 6.0

This extract is from the Sun One Portal Server development guide for logging error or logs in log file. This says that to generate the log, entry should be done to enable logging in process.conf file. I could not find any such file after installing Sun One Portal Server 6.0.
Any help will be appreciated...
Reporting Errors to the Robot Log File
When problems occur, robot application functions should return an appropriate response status code (such as REQ_ABORTED), and they should also log an error inthe error log file.
To use the error-logging functionality, you must include the file log.h in thesdk/robot/include/libcs directory. After you have ensured that log.h exists in the correct place, you can use the cslog_error macro to report errors. The prototype is in the following format:
cslog_error(int n, int loglevel, char* errorMessage)
The first parameter is not currently used (may be used in the future) You can pass
this as any integer.
The second parameter is the log level. When the log level is less than or equal to the log level setting in the file process.conf, the error message is written in the robot.log.

Since removing the log settings from magnus.conf failed to fix the problem, the log settings are probably not the source of the problem.
Did anything else - e.g. ColdFusion configuration changes - occur at about the same time you changed the log settings?

Problem install: Sun studio5

I don't succeed to install Sun One Studio 5 evaluation.
the error message is:
"A suitable JVM could not be found. You need to use J2SE version 1.4.1_02 or above. If you have a suitable J2SE version installed, invoke the installer from the command line using the option -is:javahome java-home-directory."
I am sure that I have installed JVM and J2SE but I don't anderstand the problem with "javahome".
have you got an idea?
Thanks!!

Hi ,
The problem could be that the J2SE is not in your path. You need to set the path environment variable to include the J2SE. If you already have done that, it could be a problem described in the following knowledgebase item.

Re-install Sun One Studio 5

Hi,
I have download and install Sun ONE studio 5 the first time and it was very successful. It install both the Studio 5 and the application server 7
Because of some setting problem, I uninstall studio 5 and deleted the application server. Now I try to re-install, it will only install the core platform & modules.
It refuses to let me check the Sun One application server 7 & pointbase option. It says Sun ONE application server is detected on the system already. But I have physcially deleted the directory.
What should I do now to install the integrated Sun ONE studio 5 with application server 7?
rgds
Ln

It is very important to note that you should not delete the whole productregistry file. Only application server specific entries should be removed from it.
Please see this thread for more information about appserver specific entries:

Installing Sun ONE 5.2 on Win2003 w/no domain "cannot resolve name"

Hi all,
Any way to install Sun ONE 5.2 on Win2003 server w/no domain? We only have workgroup. I cannot get past this 1st step of install. If I try to make something up, I get "cannot resolve name" error. It allowed "Dell-2003.domain.com" (Dell-2003 is computername) the first time through, but install failed. Any tips?

Just what is your hosts file looking like?
I guess your XP box has an IP address... if not you will get problems sooner or later.
Ok. assuming you have an IP allocated to your XP system a line like:
123.123.123.123 xpbox.mydummydomain.com
in the c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file should work...
where 123.123.123.123 is the IP address of your workstation and xpbox is the name. mydummydomain.com is the dummy domain that xpbox is faked to be a member of.
Now, when you install iPlanet the install process gets the computer name and you provide the domain (mydummydomain.com) the install process can resolve the name to an ip via the hosts file as last resort.
If your xp box uses DHCP and gets an IP address dynamically then sooner or later you will get problems trying to host a Directory Server with this approach.
Also, ping xpbox.mydummydomain.com beforehand, just to make sure that computer doesnt already exist. grin

Installing Sun One Studio on Linux Mandrake 9.1

I try to install the Sun One Studio 5 on my mandrake 9.1 Linux.
I am using the jdk 1.4.2 and I am logged as root.
When running the command:
./s1s5se-linux-en.bin -isjavahome /home/products/j2sdk1.4.2
I get the error message:
The installation cannot continue for the following reason(s):
To install Sun ONE Studio 5 you need to log in as superuser or a user with administrator privileges.

Yep I agree this is very disapointing, however I have got Sun One Studio 5 Standard Edition working on Mandrake 9.1
Fortunatley I am lucky enough to have a spare hard drive and RedHat7.2, another pc networked up and the following is what I did....
Installed Redhat7.2, j2sdk1.4.2, then ran the SunOneStudio install as root, tested and works fine.
The Studio gets installed into /opt there are 2 dirs which are needed from what I can tell 1 is the ide "studio5_se" itself and the other called "imq"
cd into the root dir and create a tar file of the opt dir
tar -cf opt.tar opt
gzip opt.tar
I then copied the opt.tar.gz to a place I could download to the other machine, so I downloaded it, then shutdown RedHat,
re-installed my original Mandrake9.1 Hard Drive, and booted up.
logged in as root, and then transferred my opt.tar.gz to Mandrake,
untared it into the opt dir and then moved the imq and studio5_se dirs into /opt
installed j2sdk1.4.2 rpm on Mandrake9.1
then command line I
1, cd /opt/studio5_se/bin
2, ./runide.sh -jdkhome /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2
and HEY PRESTO
The only reason why I can see that the IDE will not install under mandrake is possible the coding under the Installsheild, maybe it looks for a file or someting that RedHat has and not mandrake, or just tests the OS to see if it is in the supported list, and if not then throws the error
If that is the case then it's proberly likely that it was setup like this because RedHat gives money to sun and not Mandrake????!!!?????
maybe I don't know3 just my observation, but 1 thing I do know is that due to this error I shall not be buying it, until sun change the way to install it or they go back to the old way the Forte installed
Just my thoughts,
and I hope this helps someone

Install Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 & how to use it for authenticate user

Good afternoon, Excuse, are newbie in the scope I am learning and putting desire to him, this in my situation I am trying to install Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 since I understand that this it is application LDAP for Solaris, ok I want to install it to authenticate user against the system, that is to say, to be able to acces the server entering with a created user from the data base of LDAP and make think user that his created in the system. But the documentation that I finds indicates the installation of Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 but it not clearly about how to use it for authentication. Some one have any manual step by step of Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 installation and how to make it for authentication systems users.
I read the forum seeking for anwser and i get confuse
Thanks for the help and sorry for any inconvenient

I think that I found the Sun endorsed book locations for using LDAP accounts that don't use authentication besides "crypt". I now can use an account with a "ssha" password. It can be more than 8 characters long.
Chapter 14 System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services
Read page 201 which is the pam.conf file pam_ldap setups. I edited my "/etc/pam.conf" file to reflect this
Chapter 7 Directory Server 5.2 2005Q4 - Administration Guide
Read page 316-318 which has a graphical technique to specify password syntax. I set it up and then tried the password by running "su - brahms". It now requires a longer password than 8 characters and it is set up to use "ssha" for that UID entry "brahms".

Installing Sun One DS on Win2K (Win2K - Standalone or member of domain)

I need to install Sun One DS 5.1 on Win 2K for a Proof of Concept. I need it as another software, Vitria, needs the DS.
The DS installation documentation says :
"When installing Windows 2000, specify that the computer is a stand-alone server, not a member of any existing domain or workgroup, to reduce dependencies on network security services."
Is this a necessary requirement or is it OK if the Win 2k server is member of an existing domain!!
What kind of issues could possibly come up due to the 'dependencies'
Thanks

I doubt many - if any folks that run DS on Windows do not have the server added to a domain ...
It would make more sense to actually include the server in the domain to be able to apply policies that would help secure the server ...

IIRC this file, sasl32.dll, should get installed onto %WINDIR%\system32 when you install DS5.2 windows version.
You may run WinZIP and File/Open "d52diu.zip" (DS5.2 zip image) and look for "nsbasesys.zip", double click to Open it and you should find "sasl32.dll" there.
