Security Agent: Could not get the user record from OpenDirectory

Hi,
Two months ago I had to change my SSD due to a damage at the old one. In the Apple shop they installed OS X Lion with a image from their image-server.
After that the Mac was quite slow in booting. With the old SSD (128 GB) booting takes 25 sec now it takes 75 sec.
I tried different things to solve the problem without result. First I asked in the shop, then I googled the problem all with no real solution.
Today now I searched in the log files. I found the following:
09.02.12 11:03:07.861 SecurityAgent: Could not get the user record from OpenDirectory.
09.02.12 11:03:07.861 SecurityAgent: Will sleep 3 seconds and try again (retryCount = 10)

09.02.12 11:03:58.356 SecurityAgent: Login Window login proceeding
This operation takes 30 secs during the boot process. Can somebody help me, to solve this problem?

Where can I go to learn more about this 'erasure' of network configuration if the mac tries to connect to a server while booting?
I get the same error message as the OP. My account is an Admin on the machine. It's configured to automatically log in on boot -- except sometimes it fails. It has a login-item which runs a bash script that makes an https request to a nearby machine. Maybe I should make this script sleep a while so the https action happens after the boot sequence is done? (unlike SmashHuevo, my user needs to be an Admin)

  • "Could not get the audio data from the file" error

    Hi
    I get a lot of "Could not get the audio data from the file" errors when opening a project. Sometimes they crash Premiere Pro CC 7.01 (Mac). But if not Premiere works as usual, with the audio.
    I tried to convert the audio files (coming from Audition) from 32 to 16 bit. It worked while opening a project once, but not the following times.
    Where can it come from ?
    Edit: I also get this error when importing audio: "Error: Premiere Pro version 7.0 is not compatible with the Premiere Pro Plug-in version 5.7.4". Maybe it is connected.

    Got it! It was the Smartsound plugin making trouble. Got rid of it and no more errors.

  • I'm getting this error message: "iTunes could not connect to this iPad. Could not save the pairing record."

    My iPad wont turn off completely, nor will it boot up, it just keeps thinking about it.  Pretty sure my kids ran up all the memory, and I tried connecting it to iMac to dump pictures, but it only lets me get through it half way, and continues to reboot and gives me through iTunes the error message that it could not save the pairing record?

    Disconnect it and restart your iMac and try again.

    Based on the previous post I believe it has something to do with the validity checks performed by the CDC. The post describes 3 checks and I believe my solution is failing one of these, however I am not sure which.
    As far as I understand it my logs above demonstrate that the agentRootURL is correctly set, but I'm not sure what other values are needed.
    Any advice would be greatly received.

    Quick follow up :)
    This problem was caused by the Access Manager instance not being able to resolve the IP address for 'bonecrusher.test.local'
    After I added the entry for this into the hosts file everything worked.

  • Create New gives an error "Could not find the user document directory"

    Fresh installed Adobe Edge Animate CC (2014). When I try to Create New, I get an Error popup "Could not find the user document directory"

    I think this worked!
    I just downloaded an example file and tried opening from outside of the program. At first it gave me some errors but then loaded it up.
    After that I've re-saved it and now I can create new files and open files.
    Before that I also uninstalled old CC programs that were not showing in the Adobe Creative Cloud apps.

  • Listener Error "TNS-01189: The listener could not authenticate the user"

    Good morning. We have a dual-homed (one home is 10.2.0.4 and the other is 10.2.0.5) server running a 10.2.0.5 listener. We accidentally applied the April2011 PSU to the 10.2.0.5 home without shutting down the listener. The PSU installed correctly but the listener now gives the error "TNS-01189: The listener could not authenticate the user" when any attempt is made to run the following lsnrctl commands: reload, stop, services, and status. When the start command is issued, it informs us the listener is already running (which is correct). The listener is working properly handing off database connections but we cannot administer it.
    Would installing the PSU while the listener was running cause this problem? Any idea on how to reload the listener? We even went so far as to deinstall 10.2.0.5 on the server and reinstall it with a clean cloned copy of 10.2.0.5. We also tried to create a new listener (which it did) but would not start the new listener. It said one listener was already running.
    From EM Grid Control, we can administer the listener (make basic changes to the listener.ora file) but we cannot stop the listener from EM Grid Control either. (Not a surprise.)
    Ideas? Thoughts?

    Sounds like the Activation Lock is still set to the previous owner. If you are unable to get that Apple ID and password that iPhone is totally useless to you.

    That is a problem with an extension that tries to install a search bar. The tnt2toolbar should give you a clue about which extension. You didn't add troubleshooting information with the list of installed extensions, so I can't give a suggestion about which extension is causing this.
    You can check for problems with preferences.<br />
    Rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js and user.js files to reset all prefs to the default value.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • How to get the Users Name from the SSL certificate?

    Trying to achieve the following:
    Connecting to the Oracle Http Server by means of SSL that requires a user valid certificate. Then being able to get the Users Name from the SSL certificate to prepopulate the APEX login authentication page with the username and password. Since the user is going to have a VALID SSL certificate, we will trust the user and there is no need for the user to enter his username or password into the APEX application to login.
    Does SSO do this or something else?

    Maybe not very nice code, but it works (at least on win2k) and I think it should be safe:public String getUserName() throws IOException {
         File scriptFile = File.createTempFile("script", ".js");
         FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(scriptFile);
         fw.write ("WScript.Echo(WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Network').UserName)");
         fw.flush();
         fw.close();
         BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(Runtime.getRuntime().exec("CSCRIPT.EXE \"" + scriptFile + "\" //Nologo").getInputStream()));
         String uName = br.readLine();
         br.close();
         scriptFile.delete();
         if (scriptFile.exists()) scriptFile.deleteOnExit();
         return uName;
