Server admin utility

Hi all,
I'm trying to find which ports Server admin utility is using to communicate with the Xservers.
Can someone please help on that.
Thanks,
Ziv

How to setup Web Proxy within Server Admin utility?

Hi. We currenlty use the Web function within the Server Admin utility for all our web hosting applications running on Snow Leopard server. Recently we had a vendor create a website application which needs a proxy setup in order work. According to them, we need a proxy to 127.0.0.1:8000 for the site. At the moment, they manually edited the .config file for the website to edit the proxy settings which consequently caused the Web function within Server Admin to stop functioning properly as I found a website stating that if a config file is manually edited outside of the Server Admin, the Web function will not function properly. The error message I got was "Uncaught exception raised in Web client-side plugin".
The .config file which was manually edited is as such:
<VirtualHost **.**.**.***:**>
    ServerAdmin [email protected]
    ServerName demo.segmentthis.com
    ServerAlias demo.segmentthis.com
    ProxyRequests off
    <Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
    </Proxy>
    <Location />
ProxyPass http://localhost:8000/
ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8000/
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>
I supposed my question is, is there a way to edit the proxy within the Web function of Server Admin instead of manually editing the config file?
I hope that made some sense but if not, please let me know and I will try to elaborate a bit more.
Thank you very much for your help!

Your question here appears related to or a continuation of this previous question — is this the case?
Based on the previous posting, whatever information you're receiving from the vendor support folks appears rather garbled or confused, particularly based on that "The vendor mentioned that we need to route the DNS and get it working (forwarded) on port 80 and I'd tend to avoid them." comment over there.
I'd ask the vendor for documentation and details (as on its face, a requirement for this proxy seems, well, somewhat questionable), but yes, you're probably in the Apache config files here, and probably using overrides and .htaccess if the site is low-volume, as that'll keep the changes isolated for testing.
Out of curiousity, is this proxy project part of an attempt to get this package to accessible, but without the vendor actually having the package running on port 80? (Got a pointer to the package? We can check the docs, and see if we can translate the installation requirements into something useful on OS X Server.)
Are you running 10.5 or 10.6? Both are pretty old releases.

Server Admin Graphing No Longer Works in 10.4.6

Has anyone else noticed that the graphing functions no longer work in 10.4.6?
I have also noticed that the CPU % Usage in the System - Hardware displays 62% no matter that the system is idle. This only appears on my single processor G4 not my Dual G4 Xserve.

Ever since I have upgraded to Xserve 10.4.6 the graphing function does not work and shows 0% - pretty light load for a dual 867 MHz G4 and about 12 users at the time
It is my hope that Apple does fix the problem shortly - it's useful to see the load on the CPU and network. Over the last while I did notice that the CPU load was "creeping" up steadily when the "Server Admin" utility was left running. The graph did not creep up when "Server Admin" was terminated and a graph was plotted after a few days.

Server Admin is so slow to respond

Hi All
I have a mac-mini with OS X Server 10.5.6 installed. I have a test network which I'm playing around with at home. I'm currently trying to set it up as a open directory master, install dns and dhcp. My problem is that whenever I select Server admin to do any tasks it take absolutely ages to respond.
It will sit there with the rainbow wheel spinning.
The server has all the latest updates
If anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated

I have the same problem and basically, my Server Admin utility NEVER connects to my MacOS X 10.5.6 Server (10 users).
It's supremely frustrating since this major problem has just started, out of the blue.
Yes, I restarted the server and it doesn't help.
Furthermore, the Server Admin doesn't open (or connect, more precisely) with either the server itself of from another (LAN) Mac. And when I "force quit" the Server Admin (because nothing is happening, as fas as I can tell), it gives me an error (and I send it to Apple).
This is the kind of error the system diagnoses...

Unable to start Admin server by using weblogic.admin utility

Hi,
I stoped the admin server by using weblogic.admin utility command as bellow.
java weblogic.Admin -url http://server1:8008 -username adminuser -password weblogic SHUTDOWN myserver
It stopped successfully. But while starting as below i am getting error. Kindly help me out.
java weblogic.Admin -url http://172.27.72.70:8008 -username adminuser -password weblogic START myserver
<Warning> <Net> <BEA-000905> <Could not open connection with host: server1 and port: 8008.>
Failed to connect to http://172.27.72.70:8008: Destination unreachable; nested exception is:
java.net.ConnectException: Tried all: '1' addresses, but could not connect over HTTP to server: 'star', port: '8008'; No available router to destination
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, Node Manager has configured on Managed Server's host machine.
So can't we start admin server by using weblogic.admin utility if admin server is stopped?
Thanks,

"Server Admin Help" utility

I just unwrapped my new Mac Mini with Snow Leopard Server. I was looking for some info using the "Server Admin Help" but I cannot get it to work. The search doesn't work, it keeps showing the turning wheel, but nothing is coming up. The links don't work either.
I know it is very basic, but I am relatively new to Macs, please tell me how I can fix the help file?

So you've configured the Mac OS X Server environment, and gotten connected to the network and gotten DNS going?
If the IP network and the DNS used for the server aren't correct and functional, then Server Admin tends to be one of the first casualties.
Is the beachball on a Mac client running the Server Admin tools, or arising on the server?
If running Server Admin directly on the server, is the beachball specific to the Server Admin help, or are there beachballs arising in other tools, too?
It's also possible that there's a problem with this particular Mac Mini Server box configuration.

Extreme is going back, new admin utility is flawed

This is long, but bottom line is my advice is to wait until Apple gets things ironed out unless you have a system without multiple devices.
- Multiple USB drives hooked to a PC running iTunes with a wireless G card
- A macbook
- One Airport Express serving as a router and a USB print server
- 3 other AEs that I stream audio to from the PC or the macbook to 3 different stereos
- A PC laptop I sometimes use with iTunes
- A Palm that I use to control iTunes with a VPN
- A network printer that my PCs talked to via Ethernet and the macbook wirelessly through the express router via the USB port.
Everything shares the internet through the Express router and can stream to the other Expresses.
The macbook is used by my wife and shares the iTunes library hooked to the PC. I wanted the new extreme because I could hook the hard drives to it so she wouldn’t have to go through the hassle of sharing my library and I wouldn’t have to leave the PC running when I travel. She’s not very computer savvy. I thought the wireless N would be good for future updates.
The extreme comes with a new admin utility you have to use. I configured it and it looked to work but couldn’t see any of the expresses. I reset an express and configured it and iTunes could see the express and it would stream music to it but now the admin couldn’t see either the extreme or the express. It could configure another express after I reset it but iTunes couldn’t use it because the admin utility couldn’t see the IP address of the router and assigned a bad address to the express. I could manually assign an IP address and iTunes could see it.
After a few hours on the phone with Apple (they first tried to tell me I didn’t qualify for support because my extreme wasn’t in their system even though I bought it direct, so I had to bully them to help me) it worked, sort of.
Each time I configured an express or changed a setting on the extreme it would screw up the security settings for the extreme so my computers couldn’t see it even though the green light was on. Every time I changed anything and updated I had to delete all keychain settings and reset the passwords. Then
-I kept getting dropouts with iTunes when I never had them with before
-nothing could print,
-the extreme wouldn’t let the Palm join the network
I went back to my original setup using an express as a router, but now it couldn’t see the other expresses and when I tried to reset them even the old admin kept giving them invalid IP addresses. It didn't even work if I assigned the IP address manually. I reloaded the old software that came with the AE and reconfigured and now everything works.
What a disaster. I will be returning the Extreme ASAP.

I bought a new Airport Extreme n and have been unable to set up an Airport Express to extend the network.
Streaming with AirTunes is no problem, but extending the network has been exasperating and impossible.
I exchanged the Airport Extreme n for a new one, factory re-set everything countless times and no luck.
I think that some of the advice for this problem in these forums is coming from people who have not got the hardware concerned and so they are making assumptions based on Apple's reputation.
For example, some are referring to Apple documents which relate to legacy Extreme products and not the n.
I have trawled through every post and Apple document and manual without success.
My own conclusion is that the new AirPort Utility programme does not work properly and/or there is a generic fault in Extreme n's.
A clue here is that Apple's latest documentation says to set up the extended network manually, so that says a lot for their auto set up wizard!
If anyone out there has successfully got an Express to extend their Extreme n network then please tell me how you did it.
Meanwhile I think Apple should suspend their series of Microsoft batering advertisements until their hard/software works.
I stand ready to be corrected and will be delighted to hear if anyone has been luckier than me.
I hope this thread is not marked closed before it finds an answer.

My Airport Base Station does not appear in the Airport Admin Utility

I cannot see my airport extreme base station in the Airport Admin Utility nor in Airport Setup Assistant via Airport. It worked yesterday but when I was trying to set up a network something must have changed but I don't know what it is. (The setup didn't work so I am only using one base station right now.) The only way I can configure/reconfigure the base station is by physically connecting via an ethernet cable. Then no problem. I have two computers and neither can access the base station with Airport Admin Utility via Airport. I have installed the latest Airport Update but nothing has changed. What happened?

You should be able to use the second Airport Extreme
Base Station as a wireless print server. What I
suggest you do is:
1. run the Airport Admin Utility and clean up
settings on your existing Base Station:
- under the Airport tab, make sure you have not
selected to "create a closed network"
- under the Access Control tab, clear out all
settings
- under the WDS tab, clear out all settings
- under the Network tab, make sure the box is checked
to "Distribute IP addresses" and "Share a single IP
address using DHCP and NAT".
- update settings to the Base Station if you changed
anything.
2. do a hard reset of your second base station per:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451
3. for now, put both base stations and the Mac in the
same room. Run the Airport Setup Assistant, and use
its guidance to configure the second base station as
a new base station that "extends" the wireless
network of your main base station.
That should do it.
Thanks very much. The printer works great from both computers via my second airport base station. And I can see both my base stations in the Airport Admin Utility.

NetBoot/NetInstall settings in Server Admin buggy as ****?

Hi,
I administer a Mac pool in College. We recently updated to all new iMacs (except for one, which still is a 2006 C2D iMac) and Leopard Server running on a PowerMac G4 (Dual 1GHz, 1.5 GB RAM).
Except for a few initial quirks with Directory Services, Leopard Server runs fine and snappy on the G4 and seems highly reliable. But then again, there's this BIG problem with NetInstall.
We setup one of the new iMacs as the master computer with all the neccesary software installed, and then created a NetInstall image from it using System Image Utility. It took a while, but went fine.
We then placed the image in the proper directory (Library/NetBootSP0), and configrured and launched NFS and NetBoot services in Server Admin. It found the image and offered configuration for it. But somehow, the most essential settings are not saved, when clicking "Save" in server admin, no matter whether the service is still running or being stopped before settings are changed.
These settings are saved by Server Admin:
Default image
Enable this image
Diskless (while not being available)
Architecture (Universal, Intel or PPC)
Protocol (NFS or HTTP)
While these settings *are not* saved by Server Admin whatsoever:
Model property filtering ("Allow any Apple Computer" vs. "Allow only specified models")
MAC Address filtering ("Allow only listed clients and deny others" vs. "Deny listed clients and allow all others")
(These settings appear when selecting an image from the list an clicking on the Edit-button (with a pen on it))
Whenever I make a change to this and click "Save", Server Admin simply ignores this and reverts it to the default settings, which are "Allow any Apple Computer" an "Allow only listed clients and deny others" with no clients listed.
When I leave the setting on "allow listed and deny others" (Whitelist), an add a clients MAC Address and save, this is ignored by Server Admin.
When I change the setting to "deny listed and allow others" (Blacklist), and save, this is ignored by Server Admin too. No matter whether I add MAC Addresses to the blacklist or not.
That way, the NetBoot service will *not send my NetInstall Image to any client*, because it thinks it has a whitelist configured, that is permanently empty. Clients not added to the whitelist are denied, which is good, but it is not possible at all, to even add a client to that whitelist. Blacklisting some machine and allowing all others doesn't work either.
Editing the approproate NBImageInfo.plist manually showed me, that Server Admin is able to:
read settings for specified types of models properly, but unable to change this setting
and *unable to even read settings about whitelisted or blacklisted MAC addresses* from the plist (keys "EnabledMACAddresses" or "DisabledMACAddresses") properly.
And so, it also cannot write these settings into the plist, it seems.
I have to NetInstall the classroom until thursady, and because of this bug, I cannot get it to work as it should, since all my cients are denied the image. This is very frustrating.
What can I do?

MAC address filtering at the server level works, just not filtering at the image level. Depending on exactly what you are trying to achieve, this might help. But, I'm not clear on exactly what you are trying to achieve with the filtering.
The 1,0 syntax is mostly irrelevant. It is simply a reference to the NIC on the connecting system. If you have a machine with multiple NIC's (such as a Mac Pro) you might see something like 2,0:xx... instead. Regarding the rest of it, I believe the Server admin will accept accept any MAC address in the format of xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx with or without leading 0's (i.e. 00:0a:1b vs. 0:a:1b).
Model filtering information is stored in the NBImageInfo.plist, and can be manually tweaked with an appropriate application of force. You can manually move system types that you want enabled into the EnabledSystemIdentifiers list (and, of course, remove them from the DisabledSystemIdentifiers list).

This is a known issue with the weblogic.Admin utility. BEA is planning tofix
this and provide proper return codes in the next major release (probablywithin

Weblogic.Admin utility !!!

Hi All,
Will weblogic.Admin utility cause any load on the servers (performance issue), if used extensively to get the below runtime data of a domain
--> server state using GETSTATE
--> ExecuteQueueRuntime
--> JMSDestinationRuntime
--> MessagingBridgeRuntime
weblogic version : 8.1 sp5
Cheers,
Thalla.

Hi Thalla,
One of our Production Env is setup to fetch Thread Dumps and Many kind of Runtime Details of <b>WLS 9.2 MP2</b> using "weblogic.Admin" utility Over SSL ...<b>At regular Interval of 6-Minutes</b> From past 2-3 Years we never saw any Performance related issue because of this utility...
I hope the same behaviour we will find in WLS8.1 SP5 as well.. as we have already tested it in WLS9.2 MP2 ..so i can assure you that In WLS9.2 MP2...It works with Charm without any performance impact...And I expect that It will Just work Extremely great in WLS8.1 SP5 as well..
Thanks

Using weblogic.Admin utility with Weblogic 10.0

I am trying to write a script which perform PING server to ensure weblogic servers are up before moving on to start another server (the script starts all managed and admin servers), i used to be able to PING server on weblogic 8.1 using weblogic.Admin utility but on weblogic 10.3 i am getting the following exception:

In weblogic 8.1 the class weblogic/transaction/internal/TransactionHelperImpl used to be present in wljtaclient.jar but i can't locate the class anywhere in weblogic 10.3/server/lib. Kindly let me know how to use weblogic.Admin utility on weblogic 10.3

Hi,
First I ran the setDomainEnv.cmd script to set the environment and then executed the weblogic.Admin command and it worked for me.
D:\wls103\user_projects\domains\816532Local>java weblogic.Admin -adminurl t3://localhost:7010 -username weblogic -password weblogic PING
Sending 1 ping of 100 bytes.

HT1822 Mac OS X server admin tools: non-server editions of Mac OS 10.6?

On my iMac, I am running the installation of OS X that it shipped with + updates up to 10.6.8. I know there are server admin tools available on the Apple support website, that do stuff like manage groups. I am looking for a GUI to look at ALL the users, groups, permissions, etc. (including hidden ones like _www for apache) on my system, without having to dig through config files in /etc and/or use the dscl command line utility.
The referenced article says I can find the 10.6 tools on Apple support downloads:
Mac OS X Server v10.6
To administer Mac OS X Server v10.6, use the Server Admin Tools 10.6 on Mac OS X v10.6. You should match the version numbers of the server, tools, and admin workstation as closely as possible; for example, use Server Admin Tools version 10.6.8 on Mac OS X v10.6.8 to administer Mac OS X Server v10.6.8.
My questions are:
1. Where are the 10.6 tools on the apple support website? A search turns up versions for everything BUT 10.6.
2. Will the 10.6 tools work on 10.6.8 that is not a server edition of Mac OS?

The Server Tools you can download from Apple will install and run on OS X client, but they will only connect to and monitor OS X Server boxes.
So that won't get you where you want.
One command that will help you here - and which is present on OS X Server and OS X client - is dscl.
dscl . list /users
For details:
info dscl
or
man dscl
Or a web search, etc...

Can't install Server Admin 10.5.6 update on G5 10.5.6 server

Not sure if this is by design or if there's something wrong with my setup. I downloaded the 10.5.6 server admin tools update and attempted to run it on my server only to be greeted with the message "You cannot install Server Administration Software on this volume. You can not install the Server Admin Tools on a computer running Mac OS X Server." The update installs fine on a client workstation. I have server admin tools installed on the server already but the version shows 10.5.3. Is there any way to bring the on-server tools up to the same release as the off-server install?

If you've updated the Server to 10.5.6, the tools should be updated as well. If a specific tool didn't change, it's possible that it still shows the 10.5.3 version. Looking through my "Server" folder, only System Image Utility and Workgroup Manager show versions newer than 10.5.3.

Server Admin can't connect to my server

I updated to 10.4.10 and since then I haven't been able to connect to my server using Server Admin or Server Monitor. In my system.log i get the following error over and over again:
/Applications/Server/Server Admin.app/Contents/MacOS/Server Admin: [533] ServerManager session failed in connect(server.example.com,xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,311): 61\n
I appologize if this is a dup. With no search function currently, it's hard to find what I'm looking for.

You could try this as an almost last resort ( would only if i have a reasonably recent backup of the data on that drive JUST in case it becomes non-bootable (Very slim chance; but 1% is still higher than 0%)
Here we go:
Delete kernel extension caches, other caches for some issues
A number of common issues that crop up after incremental Mac OS X updates can be resolved by deleting specific cache files -- specifically kernel extension caches -- and restarting.
This can most easily be accomplished with a shareware utility like Tiger Cache Cleaner, but also bears a manual process which involves dragging the following files to the trash:
com.apple.kernelcaches (a folder in /System/Library/Caches)
Extensions.kextcache (a file in /System/Library)
Extensions.mkext (a file in /System/Library/)
com.apple.ATS (a folder in /Library/Caches/)
Files that start with com.apple.LaunchServices (in /Library/Caches)
You will be prompted to enter your administrator password when dragging these files to the trash. You may need to restart after moving them to the trash.
Re-apply the Mac OS X 10.4.10 combo updater
A workaround that has proved successful for various problems caused by previous incremental Mac OS X updaters is re-application of the current combination updater:
Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update (PPC) [165MB]
http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty2.pl/product=14212&cat=1&platform =osx&method=sa/MacOSXUpdCombo10.4.10PPC.dmg
Mac OS X Server 10.4.10 Combo Update (PPC) [218MB]
http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty2.pl/product=14218&cat=1&platform =osx&method=sa/MacOSXSrvrCombo10.4.10PPC.dmg
Doing so overwrites potentially problem-causing files that were not replaced by the "Delta" (adjacent version-to-version) update.
(Pulled this info from here http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20070709083624260 )
Then I would agree you will probably have no recourse but to reinstall.
