Server Admin not saving changes

I have just had to re-install 10.4.11 server as my disk crashed. The problem is that now I cannot save any changes to web settings. I managed to add two hosts but now if I change any of the settings and hit save, they revert back.
Also, I have manged to point my server at the correct directory for a site but it does not go there. Any ideas?

Mail service in Server Admin not saving changes

We have a Xserve with Snow leopard (10.6) and we have dovecot installed. We want to serve IMAP. According to mail it is on. Whenever we make any changes to the mail service in Server Admin and press save the values revert back to what they were (so no accepting the new values). We do not get any errors and we have checked the logs but nothing suggests why this has happened.
Any idea's?
Alternatively, is there anyone here really familiar with DoveCot that we could speak to? or any companies to contact?
All we want to do is run/host our own IMAP mailserver.
Thanks in advance,
~Luke

Thanks for your kind help. We have tried stopping and making changes and then restarting but this hasn't worked.

IDVD 06 not saving changes?

Greetings. I teach an adult ed class in iLife. Unfortunately, the lab has old single 533 G4s. When we use iDVD 06, the program is not saving changes made in the different drop zones, etc. We place elements in drops zones, tell the program to save, quit and relaunch...nothing saved.
This problem was repeated by a student on his G5 at home.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Stocks App not saving changes

My stocks app is not saving changes no matter what changes I make. After making a change, I'll exit the app, re-enter and it defaults back to a whole bunch of stuff I didn't add.
Can someone help me with this, I'm not sure where to even start!

Why weblogic server does not activate changes after bounce?

Hi All,
We are working with weblogic server 10.
When ever changes are made in console, saved and activated , everthing seems fine.
Once the server is bounced , last change which was made before bounce does not reflect in the console. All the changes before the last change looks good. Can someone please guide me in this?

Your changes should be written into your domain's config directory tree ( config/jdbc would hold the various jdbc pool definitions ).
Does your host / OS have some sort of delayed disk write?
Also, when you activate your change in the console, you should be able to see the changes in the config directory's files on the admin server's host

Remote Server Admin not working from outside of network for 1 server

Our company recently changed ISPs and I had to change our two 10.4 server's IP addresses. We have a mail server (intel xserve) and a file/web server (quicksilver g4). Both servers have two network cards in them. The problem is two-fold:
1- I can successfully manage the Xserve machine locally on our network and from my home. However, I can only manage the Quicksilver g4 server locally. Any kind of external access is not even acknowledged.
2- I'm not sure if I missed any steps when changing IP addresses for these server-based computers. Also, I'm not sure if I correctly set our dns names to the correct IP address.
For some background, this is the exact IP update process I used for each server:
Quicksilver G4 (file/web server) - Installed network card #2 and configured it with the new Public IP in the "System Preferences/Network" panel. In Server Admin I set our website to use the new public IP address. (network card #2 has no firewall device in between it and the internet.)
Then, I configured the default network card #1 to a static, yet private IP address that's behind our DLink firewall device with the rest of our network.
Intel Xserve (e-mail server) - Network card #1 was the only one setup before our network change. It had a static, public IP address. When we changed ISPs, I configured network card #2 to the new static, public IP address supplied to us by the new ISP in the "System Preferences/Network" panel. This new IP address is where all email traffic currently gets pointed to. (All mail is successfully sent and delivered.) Until our former ISP gets shutdown, I still have network card #1 configured to the older static public IP address. After the old ISP is shut off, I plan on changing network card #1 to a static, private address.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

What should I check in AD? I am by no means an expert with AD.
Yes, I am using the same client OS.
I am talking about RDP over the internet, like from home to the office. We have a static IP assigned to the router from ISP. A static internal IP assigned to the server on the LAN. And the router port forwards 3389 to the assigned IP.
It was working fine before we reinstalled Server 2012. These are the steps I took when reinstalling:
1. format drive and install OS
2. rename the server
3. install SQL server
4. Install TFS and SharePoint
5. Add Active Directory role and promote to Domain Controller
6. Add domain users
7. Enable remote access on the server and add users to remote access list

Mail not saving changes in Mailbox Behaviors

For one of my accounts since the upgrade to Mavericks when I enter the Mailbox Behaviors section, I found that Drafts, Junk and the one under Trash named Store Deleted messages on the server is checked.
I uncheck them because I doon't want them checked. I Save the changes I made then go back to that account and the same ones I just unchecked are now checked again. Its not saving what I just unchecked.
What the heck is wrong?
Also noticed that in OSX 10.8 I could drag all my email accounts to a different order than the way they are now listed. Can't do that now.

Thanks for discovering this issue being connected to drafts. I have trouble with this for a couple of months as well.
Since you assume it to be connected to "drafts", I suggest to deselect "Store draft messages on the server" for your IMAP-Account. I just did this for myself, to see if it helps, and can't give you results yet. Maybe you just wanna try simultaneously. I guess, the reason for our problem could me some messy communication between Mail and the server, where one party get's confused.

Server admin not seeing directory users from workgroup manager

I am setting up a new Xserve with Snow Leopard (get 'em while we can). We have eight other XServes running Leopard or Snow Leopard server. On those machines we have set up file sharing over AFP. The machines are connected to our Active Directory server and our users authenticate using their domain passwords. All of our other servers were setup in Leopard and were upgraded to Snow Leopard. We have not had any issues authenticating to those boxes.
This is the first one that we have actually setup new-out-of-the-box in Snow Leopard. I can set Workgroup Manager up to connect to our AD, and can see and search my domain users and groups in Workgroup Manager. When I try to set up my File Shares in Server Admin, none of my domain users show up-only local accounts.
What have I missed? In Leopard, when I connected to the domain, the users immediately became available in Server Admin. Not so in SL, at least on this box.
Help?

Hi
The first thing to check is if you've bound the Server to the AD Domain. The second thing is if the /Active Directory/All Domains is in the Search Policy. If you don't do either of these WorkGroup Manager won't display anything coming from the AD Schema.
In 10.6 Apple moved the Directory Utility from where it used to be in /Applications/Utilities and made it part of the Accounts Preferences Pane. Perhaps it's this change that's confusing you? I would not advise doing this but it's also possible you used the Server Setup Assistant to do most of the configuration? If you did maybe something went wrong at that stage (won't be the first time) and you need to manually bind the Server instead?
As ever make sure this server is using the same NTP Server as the others.

Since this issue does't seem to be Xserve specific I would suggest posting in the specific Mail discussion group.

You'll get more eyes on your issue in that group.

Cisco Prime Soft Appliance not saving changes to syslog.conf

Greetings,
I'm having an issue with the syslog.conf file on a Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.4 soft appliance with a Solaris base. My workplace uses local4 as the logging facility for its network devices, and according to a discussion I found on this site, I need to add the line:
local4.info /var/log/syslog_info
I have attempted this several times; we're approaching at least 5 attempts today. I have attached text files created from putty logs where I've attempted to make the necessary change. I appreciate any assistance the community can provide.
Regards,
Rob

Hi, Afroz,
I really appreciate your assistance, but I'm afraid my hopes have been dashed. The syslog.conf reverted to its original configuration. I will go through my steps to be sure that I understood your suggestion properly.
I edited the syslog.conf to put all messages from local4 in /opt/CSCOpx/conf/syslog-entries.txt. Then, I exited the shell to the console, issued the 'write mem' command, and closed the session. Upon my reconnection, I found that my changes to the syslog.conf were not saved.
Did I make the correct edits in the correct places? Another question, is this bug present in the versions of Prime LMS running Linux and/or Windows, or does it only exist in the soft appliance running Solaris?
Regards,
Rob
Edit:
I'm reading the "Installation and Migration of Cisco Prime" PDF, and it gives me the impression that Cisco Prime is only supported as Windows, Solaris, and soft appliance installations. Is that correct? If it is correct, then installation of Cisco Prime LMS is not supported on other Linux distros such as Ubuntu Server, CentOS, Fedora, etc.?
My thanks.

Enhancement in IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS not saving changes after order creation

I have an enhancement at the beginning of the IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS function module used to create sales orders via EDI. In the enhancement, I take the data records and make some changes to some quantities and units of measure. After making these changes, I let the function module continue on as normal. The order does get created with my changes in them, however, the IDoc doesn't reflect my changes.
Here's an example: An EDI order comes in with 6 EAs of a material. In my enhancement, I change it from 6 EAs to 2 3PK. I then let it go on its way. The order gets created fine with 2 3PKs, however the IDoc after its a ll done still says 6 EAs.
The enhancement runs before the FM puts the data into the tables it uses. I tried using the last user exit to open the IDoc and editing it there using the EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_EDIT FM but it says its open.
Can anyone give me any clues on how to make my changes stick to the IDoc?
Thanks,
Curtis

Ok, I figured out why it's not saving. Not realizing it, but the tables are passed into the FM by reference, so what I'm changing is only a copy. So what I tried to do is use the 004 (I've also tried the 005) user exits to try to update the actual DB. I used the following FMs (EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_EDIT, EDI_CHANGE_DATA_SEGMENTS, and EDI_DOCUMENT_CLOSE_EDIT). The problem is that I can't change them because the IDoc is still open.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can achieve my goal of changing the IDoc?
Thanks,
Curtis

Share point in server admin not working correctly... I think

I suspect that the share point in server admin is not working correctly. In workgroup manager when I click on a user and then click on the "home" tab, under the full path field I see a file path of:
afp://server.mydomain.com/Users
However if I go to Server Admin -> AFP -> Share Points then click on the Users share and then click on the share point tab below, enable auto mount is disabled. How can this be possible? I thought for a directory to show up in home in workgroup manager it had to be set as an auto mount. Has something possibly corrupted? And what?

Here's a bit more information about our setup and our experiences with Apple's CUPS implementation:
On the server, all printer queues are set up with only lpr and ipp sharing enabled with the PPD setting for each printer set to Generic Postscript. We found that setting the PPD to the printer specific one on the server caused problems when clients tried to use printer specific options, like paper tray selection, etc.. The selection would be undone, apparently because the driver on the server would override the previous settings. Using Generic Postscript allows the client PPD settings to go through unmodified. Our printers are general a mix of HP LaserJets and some Sharp Copiers.
All clients use lpd to the server queues with the printers' actual PPDs configured. Using ipp is superior in that printer feedback (jams, out of toner, etc) makes it back to the clients, but ipp only works when the client, the server, and the printer are on the same network. If the ipp client is not on the same network, the client spooler immediately goes into a paused state and the print job is stuck on the client.
Using lpd to the server queues works reliably, but there is no feedback to the client. Jobs disappear from the client queue and go to the server, appearing to the user as a successful print. If the printer is down, there's nothing they can see or do about it.

301 Wiki SSL redirect via Server Admin not working

I can't get http://myserver.com/wiki to redirect to https://myserver.com/wiki. I have other 301 redirects to send users to https pages working fine. How can I fix this? Thanks for your time - it's much appreciated. (Mavericks/Server Admin 3.1.2)

Regarding the redirect, I don't really understand why it's not possible. You can edit the non-SSL website in Web and add a 301 for /Wiki to redirect to https://myserver.com/wiki. In fact you can redirect the entire site to SSL - but that is problematic. I can understand why Mavericks server would be designed to automatically use SSL for wiki logins, if it's available. I only looked at redirects because this was not working. Without a redirect or with a redirect - I can login to Wiki via non-SSL or SSL. Where (specifically in which text file) are these redirects created using Server Admin written to? I can't find them in apache2/httpd.conf. Thanks again for your help.

Print Queue Management via Server Admin not working

We have Xserves (10.5.8) running the Print Service for queue management to our printers. Clients print through the server just fine.
When the printer jams or is otherwise paused, print jobs pile up in the queue as expected. The queue can be seen and managed by logging into the server, going to Server Preferences/Print & Fax and selecting the print queue.
However, when the queue for the paused printer is viewed within Server Admin/Print, the queue shows as empty and therefore can't be managed. We want to use Server Admin for this function because:
1) Server Admin can be run remotely on a workstation, so no login to the server required.
2) We can assign Print Service management rights to select non-admins so they can manage the queues.
Any ideas on why Server Admin fails to show spooled jobs? Is it working for anyone else?
I am using Server Admin version 10.5.3 which are the latest available that comes with Server Admin Tools 10.5.7. We had been running 10.5.7 on the Xserve and it didn't work then either.
