Server dns service will not turn on

Im using Server app 4.0.3
I entered all the info and tried to activate DNS service but it will not turn on.  The on button immediately slides back to off.  I have watched several tutorials and have tried both basic and advanced setups exactly as shown but the service will not start.

Did you check your restriction settings? Go to Settings/General/Restrictions ->location services
If deactivated in restrictions, you might not be able to  activate the service in the settings.

  • Mac OS Server Open Directory Will Not Turn On

    Yesterday I got the server application for Mac OS Mountain Lion.  This is my first time working with apple server software and when I try to turn on Open Directory it says:
    An Error occured on the server while processing a command.
    The error occurred while processing a command of type 'setState' in plug-in 'servermgr_dirserv'.
    I am not sure what is causing this.  I am running the server on a 2010 iMac with Mountain Lion installed and I couldn't find any answers online.  Any help would be much appriciated.
    Edit:  I would be willing to reinstall the server software and reset settings for it if I have to.  (I just don't know how)

    Thanks _Franck_!

  • Lion Server DNS service not working for locally created zones. Caching working fine.

    OS Lion Server DNS service not working for local zones. Was fine under Snow leopard server but Lion server upgrade has severely broken my DNS and web sites. Zones look fine under Server Admin but keep getting "query failed (SERVFAIL) for xxxx at /SourceCache/bind9/bind9-42/bind9/bin/named/query.c:3921" in the logs. BTW - Server Admin cant seem to see the log file either.
    Surely someone actually tested that DNS still worked on Lion?

    I upgraded from Snow Leopard Server to Lion Server on day 01.  I hit the same issue where, after the upgrade, my Lion Server stopped serving names for my private local domain.
    I finally took a few minutes to figure out what was wrong.  After turning on debug logging and looking through the logs, I found my particular issue, now resolved.
    The issue I had was, when the domain initially was setup when I installed Snow Leopard Server, for some reason it created a zone just for the server (in my case, something like zone "s-01.mydomain.priv"), and a separate zone for all the other machines (zone "mydomain.priv", containing all the private IPs for my local domain).  I never messed with it because it worked, but generally I would have put all of them in the same zone.
    My zone "mydomain.priv" had a nameserver and mail exchanger entry for my server, s-01.mydomain.priv.  I could see this in the Server Admin app on the DNS bubble, Zones tab, mydomain.priv selected, and the General Info panel.  This was fine in Snow Leopard.  This was failing the zone load in the updated bind for Lion Server, though.  The issue was that the "mydomain.priv" zone was referencing the s-01.mydomain.priv server, which was not defined in the "mydomain.priv" zone but rather in the "s-01.mydomain.priv" zone.
    My fix:
    1. In Server Admin, add the server to the zone "mydomain.priv".  I put an A record (Add Machine) in the "mydomain.priv" zone for my server named s-01.mydomain.priv.
    2. shut down DNS on the OS X Lion Server (hit the Stop DNS button on Server Admin).
    3. edit /etc/named.conf by hand, removing the specialized zones that contianed just the server.  In this case, it would be the section titled 'zone "s-01.mydomain.priv"' and the section titled 'zone "3.10.1.10.in-addr.arpa"'.  Your in-addr.arpa zone name will change based on whatever your server IP address was.  My internal one happened to have s-01.mydomain.priv mapped to 10.1.10.3.
    4. Once the specialized zones for just the server were removed, I started the DNS up again.  Instead of serving four zones as it had in OS X Snow Leopard Server, it now servers two zones.  And, now, it is resolving my local machines for the mydomain.priv zone.
    YMMV.  I did note that it wasn't totally necessary to do step 3, but I never really understood the need for the specialized domain, and keeping it around would have a copy of data that would just confuse things.
    Hope that helps.  That's been the only hiccup I've noticed updating to OS X Lion Server thus far.

  • Reporting Services will not automatically use a different replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue

    Reporting Services offers limited support for using AlwaysOn Availability Groups with report server databases. The report server databases can be configured in AG to be part of a replica; however Reporting Services will not automatically use a different
    replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue? is there any workaround for that..
    Rahul

    Hi.
    With the AlwaysOn listener you should have a single DNS name to connect to regardless of which cluster node is active. Are you using the listener service? If not, please refer to the link below.

  • CF8 Application Server Service Will NOT Start

    I ran into this error:
         java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
    and after researching it it seemed that I should up the max heap size on the Java/JVM page, so I increased my max heap size to 1044MB from 512, via the CF Administrator, I also added maxPermSize= 256m.  Then I restarted the server, but the Application Server service will not start.
    I opened home/runtim/bin/jvm.config and set the heap size to 1024, restart, service still wont start.
    Set the max heap size to 512 and removed maxPermSize, restarted server, service still won't start.
    Set the entire java.args equal to: -server -Xmx256m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -xx:MaxPermsize=128m -XX:+UseParallelGC -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib -Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{appli cation.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application. home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars
    Restarted, still the services will not start.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    The error I get when trying to start the services is:
    Windows could not start the ColdFusion 8 Application Server on Local Computer.  For more information, review the System Even Log.  If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refore to service-specific error code 2.
    Thanks!

    Once you have ColdFusion running again this will bring you back to your initial problem:
    java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
    Suggest take a copy of your working JVM.CONFIG (so you have a backup) then add some debugging to the JVM Arguments eg:
    # Arguments to VM
    java.args=-server  -Xmx512m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC -verbose:gc -Xloggc:cfjvmGC.log -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib -Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{appli cation.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application. home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars
    Once ColdFusion is restarted again a log file will be created called \ColdFusion8\runtime\bin\cfjvmgc.log. Open the log file and you will be able to see how the New, Tenure and Permanent memory spaces are working. Given you now know which buffer is filling (excluding New made up of Eden and a couple Survivor spaces - because those fill and empty all the time) you can make adjustments to JVM.CONFIG knowing which value you intend to alter. Likely you want to alter either Xmx or MaxPermSize. When you think the Java heap space is resolved turn logging off by removing the bolded details.
    HTH, Carl.

  • Coldfusion 8 service will not start.  Server log is ending with "Starting license..." (Emergency)

    Our server has gone down and the Coldfusion 8 service will not start.  There is no information in any of the logs for anything today since its gone down.  Ive checked the root logs directory as well as the runtime logs directory.
    The server.log is the only file being updated and it shows "Starting logging..." and then "Starting license..." and hangs.  The service does not start and the log gets nothing more after this point.  Memory continues to go up slowly, we've increased the start timeout tremendously with no effect.  There is little to no CPU usage.
    Our server is licensed and has never had this problem before.  It is the standard version.
    Our server is completely down and we are losing clients.  From what we can tell a windows update occurred, which we have since removed in case it was the issue, and when the server restarted CF did not come back.  We have been working on this for hours with no results.
    Please help and let me know anything you may need which will help diagnose our issue.
    Thanks

    So that others who see this know the solution.
    I started Coldfusion from the command line: c:\Coldfusion8\runtime\bin\jrun -start coldfusion.  This brought up all the commands as it worked through them.  From that we found that CF was looking for license.properties in the C:\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib folder.  We found a copy in the C:\Coldfusion8\lib folder.  For now we've left it running under my account and then after hours are going to try and see if the service will run now that we've copied that properties file to the other direcory.
    Probably simple to everyone on here but was new and odd to us.  Wanted to put what we found out here in case it happens to anyone else.

  • Why is it that directory server and IAS will not install through a remote Terminal Services session??

     

    Hi,
    I think this can be done in Unix, using telnet, you may log into the
    system and install it.

  • Orig iPhone 2.1 OS - Bluetooth service OFF, will not turn ON

    have an orig 16Gb iPhone with version 2.1 of the iPhone OS installed. I have rebooted (using the method provided) twice.
    Bluetooth service does not turn ON.
    Prior to the 2.0 update, I had a Samsung WEP earpiece paired with my phone. I lost it and went without it for many months. Bluetooth is now off by default (probably has been for some time).
    I got a new Jawbone 2 and attempted to pair it up with my iPhone.
    1) General
    2) Bluetooth, service is OFF
    3) Tap the ON button
    RESULT: progress indicator spins endlessly until the screen dims and finally the saver kicks in.
    The service never fully initializes. If I jump away from settings and come back, Bluetooth is set to OFF.
    I have also attempted to pair my brand new jawbone 2 headset while this progress indicator is rolling but the two devices do not identify each other. The jawbone is IN pairing mode, but, the iPhone never recognizes this device. The progress indicator just rolls and rolls and rolls.
    I have tried 'power down' resets and a full reboot (from the HOME screen, press and hold HOME and SLEEP/WAKE button past power slider and until Apple icon is displayed) and nothing has worked.
    I saw a 3G thread with the same problem that suggested doing a reset, but, the so called author never really defined what type of reset (network, full, etc.) worked.
    Any clues, guidance or of course solution to my problem would be greatly appreciated! It's illegal to drive and talk on the phone in the state of CA without a headset! But, without bluetooth service, my headset is not operational!

    You will just have to restore it. Sorry.

    I have an iPhone 4 and it will not turn on. I plug in and says connect to iTunes. I connect it and it won't restore. What can I do? Please help

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error21
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Mid-2009 Macbook Pro will not turn on

    Hi Folks,
    so my mid-2009 15in Macbook Pro will not turn on. I updated the OS to Mavericks in December 2013. I'm from California, but I recently moved to the Guam/Marianas area where it is more humid and generally around 87 degrees F all day. For the past month my computer has worked fine, albeit I did notice the fan was running a little more than usual. I usually would just put it into sleep mode when I would finish using it (apparently a bad idea based off of reading other posts concerning humidity and, more importantly, heat). One day I finished using it, closed it and the next day went to open it; I could hear the fans start to work, but then it stopped. It hasn't turned on since. You press the power button and nothing happens. I tried all the troubleshooting stuff.
    So, my question is this: what do you think is the problem? Moreover, how much do you think it could cost to repair it? My experience with computers suggests to me that it's probably a dead motherboard. I'm wondering if it's worth trying to salvage this thing or if it would be prohibitively expensive. There are no Apple stores in the area to take it in to get advice unfortunately.
    Now, I just want to vent a little frustration. I have many apple products, and I've even switched my mother over to an apple computer, but now that I need some very basic support, apple doesn't provide a contact e-mail or a free chat? I think charging someone $19 for 'one time assistance' is ludicrous. I bet if I brought this into an apple store I could at least get some advice, and thus get some idea how I want to proceed with repairs or not. I suppose I'm also rather frustrated that my macbook, which I have been most happy with all these years, breaks because I go somewhere a little more humid and generally warmer? It would appear that the hardware failure is connected to the climate. This makes me skeptical about purchasing another mac if it can't handle a little humidity. (I have not spilled liquids on it, nor have used this computer while transitioning from an air-conditioned/humid location which could potentially cause condensation). I do not think I'm being unreasonable (yes I do think a $2500 computer should not fail after less than 5 years), but if you think I am unreasonable, please enlighten me.
    Thanks for any help. I really appreciate it.
    Ken

    Ken,
    the “Important Handling Information” in the little white manual that came in the box with your MacBook Pro states that its operating temperature range is from 50 °F to 95 °F (10 °C to 35 °C), and that its operating range of relative humidity is 5% to 90% (non-condensing). If your corner of the Pacific is outside of these ranges, the manual states that “Failure to follow these handling instructions could result in damage to your MacBook Pro”.
    I have no idea what problem your MacBook Pro has; since you’ve tried all of the troubleshooting stuff, you’ll need to somehow get your MacBook Pro to a qualified service facility to diagnose the problem. If the logic board does need to be replaced, it would probably cost hundreds of dollars for a replacement, and you might find that purchasing a replacement used MacBook Pro of the same model to be price-competitive with just replacing your MacBook Pro’s logic board.
    If you find Apple’s out-of-warranty policies unacceptable, then your only alternative to venting would be to purchase your next computer from a different company which has out-of-warranty policies more to your taste.

  • 2 day old iphone 5s turns off at 95% battery life and will not turn back on. HELP

    So I had an iphone 4s for two years, the battery started to not last as long, so with my upgrade I got the iphone 5s (greatttt). Anyways I had it for a month then all of a sudden I wasn't getting calls, it took over a minute for me to even get a call to send, then once I was on the call others couldn't hear me well, then it would drop (no problems with service, always happened with full bars).  Brought it to Apple store, they told me it was a combination between the phone and my SIM card.  They gave me a new one and recommended I go to verizon to get a new SIM card.  That same day literally 3 hours later, the phone turned off randomly at 65% battery and WOULD NOT turn back on.  I had to go back to the apple store, they restored my phone and almost gave me another new one. However they tested the battery and everything and came to the conclusion it was okay and that I needed to restore the phone and set it up as if I did not already have an iphone (not use icloud to bring EVERYTHING over) So we did that and it started to work, that was two days ago.  Over the course of the last two days I have SLOWLY downloaded my previous APPS, however the only way to download those are to do it from the "cloud" because apparently I can't just get them from the app store.  Well yesterday I got the blue screen of death, however it came back, I thought nothing except that it was over worked.  Tonight it went down to 1%, I left it on the charger until it was at 96%.  I had NO APPS open. Went to my calendar and added a event for tomorrow, put my phone down and then ten minutes later looked at it and its turned off.  It will not turn on, I tried rebooting pressing both buttons, Ive plugged it back it, switched outlets, switched cords, NOTHING.
    Of course I wish I never got the iphone 5s at this point.
    What now?
    Back to Apple again?

    Yep.
    Just like cars, you lucked on a lemon.
