Server Admin stop working

Hi,
I'm logged in to the xserve and start the Server Admin application. Normally it would see itself not problem. But now it is not. In a terminal window I see with the command ps that there is a "servermgrd -x" running. All the services that are on seem OK, but I cannot monitor them with "Server Admin". Any hints on how I can get the "Server Admin" monitoring back?

Hi,
I'm having the same issue here on an xserve with Snow Leopard Server.
I have just freshly installed and updated to 10.6.5, everything was fine. I'm running it as an OD Master connected to AD. I read the reports about apple pulling back the 10.6.5 update and decided to re-do the newly released 10.6.5 update. Since then I cannot connect in Server Admin.
DNS is fine via changeip -checkhostname and forward and reverse is ok via dig. No matter what I type in Server Admin, IP, server.local or fqdn, it still states it cannot connect. I have tried connecting via an older version Of SA on another machine with the same error, and also trying to connect to other good servers on 10.6.4 via 10.6.5 Server Admin, same error though..cannot connect.
I have a proxy and tried entering the server in the bypass option and also turning the proxy completely off.
All clients are connecting ok though, and there doesn't seem anything bad going on in system.log
I have deleted /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.serveradmin.plist with no success.
Re-booted numerous times also.
are you on 10.6.5 mtlgeek ? what have you tried ?
Any suggestion anyone?....please

Mail Server suddenly stopped working

My mail server has stopped working, and I can't figure out why. This is a brand new MacMini with the latest Maverics Server (preinstalled) that I just setup last month. (We migrated from an Xserve running 10.6.) Up to this point, mail has worked flawlessly.
This afternoon I used the Server app to create a new user. I then went about setting them up for ssh access and installing a public/private keypair (this is for a git repository). Around the same time, my mail server simply stopped working. As far as I know, no other configuration changes were made.
When I go into the Mail service in the Server app the status perpetually says "Starting...". The 'postfix status' command says that postfix is not running. I've checked every log and error file, and I can only find three anomolies:
The SMTP log file reports:
Feb 11 01:31:06 mail.gloaming.com postfix/postmap[7152]: warning: /Library/Server/Mail/Data/scanner/amavis/local_domains.db: duplicate entry: "mail.gloaming.com"
This warning has been logged before, several weeks earlier, so I assume it's not a serious problem.
The other warning is:
Feb 11 00:10:49 mail.gloaming.com postfix/postfix-script[23141]: warning: not owned by _postfix: /Library/Server/Mail/Data/mta/./guid_device_maps.plist
Other threads seem to indicate that this warning is benign.
The only other problem that looks really suspicious (to me) is in the system.log:
Feb 11 01:22:52 mail.gloaming.com ocspd[4947]: ERROR: unable to get the receiver data from the DB!
I'm not sure what that means, but it doesn't sound good.
Some threads point a finger at the virus and junk mail scanners. If I disable all mail filtering, the mail server status will finally change to "Serving mail at mail.gloaming.com". But it isn't. All attempts to get mail from the server are refused.
(Oh, and I've restarted the server several times.)
The postconf command tells me that the postfix system isn't accepting outside connections:
inet_interfaces = loopback-only
So it would appear that Server is setting this. Any attempt to change it back to "= all" fails, as the server software overwrites it with "= loopback-only" at its first possible opportunity. (Editing the main.cf file and reloading postfix doesn't fix it either.)
Here's the really strange part. The server just started do this today. I recovered a backup of the main.cf file from yesterday and diffed it with the one that's not working:
mail:postfix root# diff /Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf /Users/admin/Desktop/main.cf
675c675
< inet_interfaces = loopback-only
> inet_interfaces = all
682c682
< smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname reject_invalid_helo_hostname
> smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_invalid_helo_hostname reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname
692c692
< mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com
> mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com, $mydomain
712d711
< postscreen_dnsbl_sites = zen.spamhaus.org*2
As you can see, the Server software has deliberatly started setting inet_interfaces to loopback-only and I can't figure out how to get it to set it back to "all".
Some of the other threads have suggested "wipe and reinstall", but I've spent three weeks setting up this sever and shipping it to a co-location facility—starting over really isn't an option.
I'd really just want to know why the Server software is suddently configuring the mail server so it won't receive any mail!

The mystery continues.
This morning, I decided to take a fresh look at what's going on by recovering a backup copy of my entire /Library/Server/Mail/Config directory from last month. Looking at the item capture list, it shows that none of the files in my Mail/Config directory have changed since late last month.
Here are the disturbing changes.
In Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/dovecot.conf, there is one different line.
working:
     protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve
now:
     protocols = lmtp sieve
So clearly, the server doesn't think we should be running IMAP or POP. Which is probably the root of the problem.
In Server/Mail/Config/postfix/mail.cf, there are a number of minor/cosmetic differences, but the problematic ones appear to be
working:
     inet_interfaces = all
     mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com, $mydomain
now:
     inet_interfaces = loopback-only
     mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com
Again, this configuration would imply that there are no public mail services.
Some other odd change occured in the Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf file
working:
     smtpd     pass -       -       n       -       -       smtpd
     pickup    fifo n       -       n       60      1       pickup
          -o content_filter=smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
now:
     smtpd     pass -       -       n       -       -       smtpd
          -o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
     pickup    fifo n       -       n       60      1       pickup
          -o content_filter=
Reading through some other posts, I also found another inexplicable change reported by other users having similar problems. The /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postfix.master.plist suddenly changed.
working:
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <false/>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>master</string>
        <string>-c</string>
        <string>/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix</string>
    </array>
now:
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <true/>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>master</string>
        <string>-c</string>
        <string>/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix</string>
        <string>-e</string>
        <string>60</string>
    </array>
The postfix service is now "OnDemand" with a new, and myserious, "-e 60" option added. (I can find no documentation for an -e option in the postfix control tool.)
Ultimately, I "fixed" the problem by restoring the backup copy of my entire /Library/Server/Mail/Config folder, the /System/Library/LaunchDaemon/org.postfix.master.plist file, and immedately restarting the server. The mail servers started and everything appears to be normal.
But this whole experience has made me very learly of the Server app. Why did these configuration changes occur? What settings or circumstances caused them to spontaniously change to an, essentually, unusable state? I'm now afriad of making any changes via Server.app for fear it will decide I shouldn't have a working mail server again.
If anyone has any insights, I'd ver very interested in hearing them.

Sync Server has stopped working

Hi,
I upgraded my iPhone to IOS 4.0.1 today. Since the upgrade, whenever I try to sync my iPhone I get an error message stating "Sync Server has stopped working". The sync continues, then I get another error message stating "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (-20).
I am using iTunes 9 on Vista..
Any Suggestions folks?

BEFSR41 V3.0 - DHCP server periodically stops working; rest of functions ok

I have a BEFSR41 V3.0 latest firmware (1.0.5).
Sometimes the DHCP server will stop working. The rest of the functions are ok. I normally monitor the unit via PING and unfortunately, this won't alert me if the DHCP server stops working because the unit still responds to a ping.
Does anyone know of a fix?
The workaround is to power cycle the unit, but that needs me to be at the office and I'm not always here.

It is the DHCP server within the Linksys BEFSR41 that intermittently stops working. I do not have another DHCP server on the network.
I'm curious why changing the MTU would help. If you could explain, I'd certainly give that a try.
At the moment, the BEFSR41 serves as the DHCP server and firewall for our guest network. I keep an eye on it by enabling external ping response. However, I have found that the firewall part of the BEFSR41 will work and it will respond to a ping. But newly connected computers won't get an IP address lease. I power cycle the unit and its DHCP server will work again. The trouble is, because the unit responds to a ping, I won't know if the DHCP server is not working until someone reports it. And I'd like to be proactive about things.

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

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.

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.

[SOLVED] Services on my server have stopped working...

Hey,
During christmas some services on my server stopped working. When i was browsing a torrent tracker i noticed it said i was no longer connectable. Logging in to my router i saw that UPnP was no longer creating the forwarding port for my router, i tried forwarding the port manually but the port remained "closed". I also realised i could no longer log in to my FTP (bftpd), although i had just a few hours earlier. My httpd service and ssh was still working fine. I thought it was trouble with the router, but when i came back home i realised i couldnt access the ftp from within my network either. No settings or updated had been made.
When i do systemctl | grep service i dont see bftpd anywhere... i have reinstalled bftpd enabled /disabled / started /stopped many times, but i dont get any errors.Shouldnt i see it in the list?
I ran pacman -Syu when i first found the errors, and now again at home without avail.
Where do i begin searching for errors? My very limited skills let me set up arch linux, but not troubleshoot.
While i was writing this i realised that the latest -Syu fixed transmission; it installed a new version (2.75) and since then UPnP works again, and i cam connectable. I still cannot get bftpd to work though.
EDIT:
Holy crap i'm a retard... Bftpd is not started with systemctl... but with bftpd -d command. Still cant log in for some reason, but yeah. I'm sorry to be a bother.

Reset the SMC, as per: > Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) only wait a few minutes in step 3 instead of 15 seconds.
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
3. Wait fifteen seconds. a few minutes.
4. Attach the computer's power cord.
5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Also check for a bad cable or device if your USB overloads trip off again.

KMS Server suddenly stopped working

Our 2008R2 KMS server suddenly stopped licencing Office 2010 (it still works with licencing Windows 7). It now returns a 0xC004F038 error code, which is insufficient activations. From the slgmr below, you can see we have 38 activations,
more than enough. Any idea why this might have started?

Yes, 5 is minimum threshold for Office KMS.
Do you have exactly 5 Office KMSclients, or more?
The current_count will stop incrementing at double the minimum (in this case 5 x 2 = 10)
This KMShost should be working fine. You should check the event logs on the KMShost, and also on the Office client.

Safari - server has stopped working

I have tried the advice given to get safari to work but no joy. (deleting the app and restart. Also holding both home and sleep down to restart.) When I try to search I get "safari could not open this page because the server stopped working". How do I get it to work again and search??

Hi Friend,
Can your iPad sends iMessages, Facetime calls or something through the internet?
If yes, try to reset your network settings, double check the Restrictions settings, check the Safari settings...
If not, you have some problem with iinternet connection. Look at airplane mode is off, if your iPad recognizes WiFi connection or not, check the Restrictions settings, if other device also faces the same problem with internet connection
If still not working:
1. Go to the Settings App.
2. Tap on Wi-Fi
3. Your chosen network will be ticked. Tap on its white arrow over a blue circle button to its right
4. Tap on DNS
5. Replace the current information with 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4
6. Try visiting a website with Safari to see if this works.
Hope something here helps

L2tp Server VPN Stopped working

Hi all. My L2tp VPN has stopped working despite starting and stopping the service it doesn't seem to be accepting/responding to any connection attempts. It was working up until recently, my theory is that something got messed up when i was setting up a site to site vpn however i have since removed all the servers from s2svpnadmin. Also this is not a firewall issue as i have turned it off for testing. I can see the vpnd service running however when i port scan the machine it does not appear to have any l2tp services listening. I am wondering if there is a list of preferences that I can trash to revert the service to an original state so I can reconfigure it or any other steps I should take. OSX Server 10.4.10
Any Advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
Message was edited by: Tim Meade

I have been having the EXACT same problem with OS X Server 10.4.10 (on a Mac Pro). Interestingly enough I have had the VPN service running on 2 other servers, an Xserve G4 and G5 for over a year with absolutely no problems. I will try re-entering the shared secret and see if that helps but I also have begun to have the problem with PPTP as well as L2TP. Here is an excerpt from the log if this helps anyone. It just keeps going on and on, if someone wants to see the rest I can post it.

10.6.8 Server: Spotlight stops working for clients after fresh installation and updates

Problem:
On 2013-02-22, I reinstalled my Xserve with fresh 10.6.3 and upgraded it to 10.6.8 OS X Server. Spotlight used to be working perfectly for clients to search over the network but now it is not working. Administrators doing local spotlight search on Xserve server side is searchable. Clients with less privileges searching files across the network to the server will receive null result. Administrators searching files across the network is still working.
I believe it has something to do with the update packages and some security improvement bugs introduced in late 2012 or early 2013.
All my clients Macs are in either 10.7.5 and 10.8.2.
Can anyone confirm this? All my staff members in the company cannot do the spotlight search to the server now!

Hi, maracujana,
the problem can be solved if you allow the permssion of parental folder of your share points to have at least Read Only permission for User and Group:
permission: 644
User: Read&Write
Group: Read Only
Others: Read Only (or No Access)
In my case, it is strange that PCs can still do the search to the Snow Leopard Server by SMB protocol while Mac using AFP cannot even when the parental folder had permission 600. This could be a secure issue in Snow Leopard's SMB1.0 protocol. Note that SMB in Snow Leopard is SMB1.0, which is less secure and hence deprecated after Snow Leopard. From Lion onwards, all OS X uses SMB2.0 and/or SMB X.
Oh, yes, there is one more thing:
you may find your scanner using SMB protocol stopped functioning properly if you use (Mountain) Lion client and (Mountain) Lion server. It boils down to Apple's silent change of SMB protocol from SMB1.0 to SMB2.0. Solution? Use FTP protocol for now. Don't blame Apple too much because Apple had to follow the rules of GPLv3. The SMB issue will go on as Microsoft introduces its own SMB 3.0 protocol in Windows 8 while Apple introduces its SMB verison dubbed SMB X.
Hope this helps.

Home Server 2011 Stopped Working

Hey there. I work with a windows Home Server 2011 and recently it wasn't accessing a certain report that I need. I restarted it to see if that would fix it. When it restarted, it went through the Windows loading screen, then went to a black screen. I could
not get it to boot into safe mode. After about 10 minutes of nothing, I hard reboot it. I did this process 2 or 3 more times to no avail. Now the server will not even power on. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions to troubleshoot this?

Hi amazingbass,
As you mentioned the server not even power on, it mostly is some hardware may have issue, please contect your hardware vendor for the first step troubleshooting. Bas on my experience and from your description the server went black screen and can not complete
startup it some times caused by the disk corrupt, you can focuse this issue first.
Best regards.

Mail 2.1.3 Outgoing Mail Server suddenly stop working

Recently I had some problems every time I send an email, but I would restart Mail and the emails on the outbox folder would send after a few seconds. Now is not sending at all. "Can not send massage using the server smtpout...." This server is the same and has not been change so I don't understand why is not working. Please help!!!

Both my husband and I are having the same problem, and it's not just the account situation. I am having a ton of difficulty sending. I keep hitting the "Try with selected server" until it sends. And in actuality EVERYTHING is slower and ponderous on the whole machine. Typing is bad. Internet seems slower. Honestly, I'm upset about it. I still have a few months of Apple Care and will call tomorrow, but I think Apple wants me to get rid of my laptop for the latest model. Anyway, two questions: 1. Is there anything else I can do to fix this mail problem? 2. What do you think: Do I need to buy a new machine? Or is everything crashing? Oh drat. I hate this.
