[Solved] Unable to set preferred credentials

(Windows 2003, SP2 for all computers ... locked down by local administrators) Grid Control Rel 2 with patches (but not up to R3).
I created a test userid, made it part of the local administration group, added it to the 4 required privileges "log on as batch", "replace process level token", "act as part of OS", and "adjust memory quotas". When I attempt to set te preferred credentials, I get the error
"Connection to cepaoas63.COE.ADS as user test failed."
That's all. No reason is given, as indicated by some of the other similar queries.
Questions:
- Any other privs normally required (and possibly normally given to administrators)?
- Any other policy setting your can think of that might defeat this?
- Any firewall stuff that might have an effect?

OEM Grid Control Version is: 10.2.0.2
Windows Version is: Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP2
I had no issues with installing this version 10.2.0.2. My remote agents are uploading information back to OEM and I can see this information in OEM. I just cannot set the host preferred credentials which means I cannot take advantage of the maintenance features like scheduling a backup.
I originally tried to install 10.2.0.2 and upgrade to 10.2.0.3 but the OEM wasn't working after I did the uprade. So I did a fresh install on another server and just stayed at 10.2.0.2. I don't have a requirement to be at any particular version.

Unable to set node credentials...

I have setup the server as an OD master, and up until now it hasn't had problems binding, although I haven't been able to get any users to authenticate for any services, other than my local admin account.
I haven't made any changes, but now when opening ServerPrefs, I get the following error:
"Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with the record name server.mydomain.com$ There may be a problem with the Open Directory service."
Any ideas where I went wrong?

It isn't something that a patch is going to cure.
I believe it does have something to do with the network and probably therefore the ip address / naming as the authentication does seem to be tied to the network location.
I've managed to move things on a little in that I have bound user accounts on other machines such that when someone logs onto their laptop it will tell them they have an account on the server and provide a logon after which their account is bound and (I think) marked as 'managed' in their Preferences | Accounts. This provides additional sections in iCal and Address Book although these don't work. The only person who can log into the web stuff such as the wiki is the server admin and I still can't access the Server Preferences or authenticate the Server Admin so can't make much in the way of changes.
I've submitted my application to Apple for support using the card provided with the Mac Mini. This was last Thursday and I've not yet received confirmation that this is live. As soon as it is I'll be having a long conversation with Apple Support.
I sort of sympathise with Apple as the server is clearly at least an order of magnitude more complicated than the admin involved with just a desktop. Having said this, however, they do need to get this sort of thing sorted by making it slicker, providing more online support for these problems if they have any aspirations towards the smaller office or even home environment which don't have dedicated IT support staff.

Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with record name n`.

When starting Server Preferences, I receive a window with the following text:Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with record name n`. There may be an error with the Open Directory Service.
This started to occur after I used the command changeip to change the ip of the service.
I've tried (Re)starting Open Directory Service, but that doesn't resolve it.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this error? I'd like to be able to user Server Preferences again!

One of our servers (10.6.8) that had been running for months suddenly started generating that error message when trying to access Server Preferences. Workgroup Manager, which seems to use the same login information, accessed just fine. We tried deleting access information in Keychain, to no avail. What finally worked for US was:
- Via Server Admin, (in Open Directory > Settings > General) change the Role: Open Directory from Master to Standalone
- This (for us) then restored access to Server Prefs
- Use Server Admin to change the Role back to Master
Warnings - 1) backup first 2) you will have to reinstall the master password, and 3) ALL accounts were lost and had to be recreated.

Unable to set preferred credential for host with virtual host/IP

I have installed agent on multiple hosts. For the host which has virtual IPs, I am not able to set preferred credentials or run OS commands. On other nodes, everything is fine
Please advice
Thanks
Sunil

For agent i'm using 'Local System' and for preferred credentials i'm using <Domain>\<Users>. This is working fine on all other hosts but on Cluster Node its failing.
Oh yes, agent is UP.

Has anyone encounter this "unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3"?

Install and updated the Macmini server to 10.6.5. It working fine until try to access the Server Preferences and error message "unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with the record name **." Looking at the logs and has servermgr_accounts got error 5203 trying to auth to local LDAP node. Has anyone found solution for this problem?
Thanks
Luis

Thank you for responding. This is what we are using in a small company a Cisco Switcher, and don't have a router.
If you're getting connections off of the network out to the Internet, then yes, there is a router involved. Somewhere.
MacMini server I have an IP address of 169.254.xxx.xx, before IP address was 192.254.xxx.xx.
That IP address implies that the box isn't getting an IP address from a DHCP server; that's the self-assigned block. (Officially, these addresses are in the Automatic Private Address Configuration Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) IANA reserved range.)
Which implies that at least two problems lurk.
Mac OS X Server must have a static IP address. Not DHCP-assigned dynamic addresses.
And a DHCP server isn't answering the IP address requests. (Well, not unless the DHCP server is passing out addresses in the self-assigned block, and that wouldn't likely be considered best-practice. More likely an IP address from a DHCP address pool allocated within a subnet somewhere in the 10.0.0.0/8 or 172.16.0.0/12 or (less desirably) 192.168.0.0/16 private blocks.
The Firewall is not turned on. Its purpose is for guest to access files, without deleting or modifying it.
When you're debugging problems, simplify. Divide the problem. With network services, test the lowest levels of the stack. Then work your way up the stack; toward higher-level services and mechanisms. Then add more parts and pieces, and DHCP and related.
IP hosts operating at 169.254.0.0/16 addresses (for longer than it takes to get an IP address from DHCP) usually implies that the network configuration is invalid or the DHCP server is not working.
I did not expect that Open Directory would be a big problem.
If DNS services or IP routing is misconfigured, then the whole rest of the stack will be unstable at best. The configuration order (and debugging order) involves functional IP networking and hardware, first and foremost. Then having functional DNS. Then Open Directory and then Kerberos. Then the rest of the stack.

[Solved]Unable to set default browser

Using XFCE I can set the default browser from settings/Preferred Applications to either google chrome or firefox both of which are installed. I set chrome as preferred and can get online no problem. The setting will stay for sometimes days or maybe a few minutes before the system 'forgets' what preference has been set and reverts to no preference set.
Using thunderbird to open links in emails always opens Firefox despite the default browser being set to chrome. In fact firefox always stays set as default browser under preferences/general and I can have firefox and chrome open at the same time with both claiming they are the default browser. If I set the system preference to firefox then open chrome it detects it is not the default browser and allws me to set it as default, this always seems to set the system preferences to not set so it removes firefox but not not set chrome, if I then open firefox it does not give the message about not being the default but checking in preferences/general it is already set as default.
I seem to be going around in circles for the last few weeks, can someone point me in the right direction?
Last edited by weedfreak (2012-09-23 09:43:11)

Well I had also tried using XFCE Preferred application to set it and that also did not work, there was also an anomaly with the menu entry for Web Browser, it always claimed there was no preference set and I needed to select the session browser from the list.
The link provided was not really a lot of help directly, but it did point out that xdg-open is broken and gave me some directions to search in, eventually I found the ~/.local/applications/mimeapp.list contained a lot of references to firefox that stayed in place even if preferences were changed, they were listed before the chrome entries. I deleted every line with firefox in then when I tried a link from Thunderbird I was asked to choose a browser and the change stuck, the web browser menu link also works correctly.
Not sure if this is really solved or if it is a workaround but I'll mark it solved.

[SOLVED] Unable to set up wireless connection (wiki read)

Well, as you can see that's my 1st post. That's why I want, at first, congratulate the community for the amazing wiki and forums. It helped so much.
But I'm writing here because I have a problem that I'm unable to resolve with the wiki: The wireless connection. It doesn't work.
Now I will post my hardware and some software:
ASUS Eeepc 1000
01:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT2860 (as # lspci | grep -i net says)
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 Gigabit or Faster Ethernet (rev b0) (as # lspci | grep -i net says)
Linux Kernel 3.2.4-1-ARCH (as # uname -r says)
I3 window manager
wireless_tools and wpa_supplicant installed
(If you want to know something more, ask me)
The wireless is enabled in the BIOS and the led indicator is on.
Being the network controller RT2860, must I do something special? I tried to blacklist what the wiki says with no results.
I have no problems with wired connection, but I can't set up my wireless connection with the # ip link set wlan0 up command (and yes, I execute this command as su or with sudo). I3 corroborates it in the status bar: W: down.
# ip link list
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
( I had it disconnected when I did this check)2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:22:15:08:af:e2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:15:af:ba:39:b8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
I tried a lot of thing, but no results at all. Must I configure manually some file like wpa_supplicant.conf, rc.conf or others? It is normal that in rc.conf, NETWORKING tab, the only interface is eth0 (interface=eth0) with no other references to wlan0?
Thanks for your attention.

That thing on the wiki about blacklisting is probably outdated, it's from the times the kernel had two Ralink drivers. Now there's only one, and you should not blacklist anything.
rc.conf is only for wired interfaces. For wireless you can do stuff manually, or use a manager - netcfg, wicd, networkmanager.
And that's that. For further help, you'll have to provide details about which commands you used and what their output is.

[SOLVED] Unable to set default application to open files

Hello,
Whenever I try to set a default application for a file type (an avi for example) by right-clicking the file in Nautilus and choosing Open with Other Application, I can select the application (in this case VLC), check the Remember this Application checkbox and click Open, I always get the below message:
Could not set application as the default: Can't create user application configuration folder /root/.local/share/applications: Permission denied
I'm not logged in as root (confirmed with "whoami") so I'm not sure why it's trying to access the root home folder.
I'm thinking this is simply a misconfigured path statement (forgive the Windows terminology) but I'm not sure where to start looking. Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply ngoonee!
The situation has already changed a bit. Still being in Windows mode, I decided to try a reboot. After rebooting I no longer get the error I was before (I wonder if it had something to do with logging in initially as root then su'ing to my user account) but the association with vlc just isn't sticking.
I noticed though that now when I right-click on a video file I get the option to "Open with Movie Player" as well as "Open with VLC media player" (which does do what it's supposed to), which wasn't there before. For grins I went and set the preferred multimedia app to VLC through System > Preferences > Preferred Applications, but that didn't help.
Is there a place these preferences are stored that I might take a peek at?

[Solved] Unable to set bluetooth stick on laptop

Hi everyone.
I am trying to set my bluetooth usb device, as it is sad in the wiki, but I am not able to get it run.
When I plug my bluetooth stick, I got that in my /var/log/messages.log
Jul 7 14:38:34 tangra usbcore: registered new interface driver hci_usb
and this is what I have in my /var/log/messages.log when I start the bluetooth daemon:
Jul 7 14:38:24 tangra usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
Jul 7 14:38:34 tangra usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

Jul 7 14:38:34 tangra usbcore: registered new interface driver hci_usb
Jul 7 14:41:51 tangra hcid[4165]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
This is what I have, when I write lsusb:

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001
After I plug the device, I am running /etc/rc.d/bluetooth start, and everything seems to be in order, but when I type "hcitool dev" I got nothing displayed. I red the wiki, and I have bluez installed. Where is my mistake. Do I need some software, or... I do not know what. It is my first time when I am using bluetooth in my life.
Regards.

Hi
I solved the problem. You need to "hciconfig hci0 up", before run "hcitool dev" and see the device, or "hcitool scan" to scan for bluetooth devices in range.
Do you know how to brows the files on my mobile phone. I have no gnome or kde.
Regards.

SOLVED: Unable to set Destination URI to URL stored in a VO attribute

Hi OAF Gurus,
I want to set destination URI for a message styled text bean in my custom OAF page, such that on clicking the link a popup window comes up with an external url. This external url is record specific and is stored in a db table. I have access to this url thru a VO attribute on my page.
If I set destination URI declaratively using a static url, it works fine for me. However when I try to pick up the destination url from VO attribute, fwk is prefixing "http://server:port/" to the url and consequently making it an invalid url.
Please suggest a way to stop fwk from prefixing "http://server:port/" to the url stored in my VO attribute.
What works:
Destination URI:
javascript:var a = window.open('http://www.google.com/', 'a','height=500,width=900,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no'); a.focus();
What doesn't work:
Destination URI:
javascript:var a = window.open('{@BpelInstanceUrl}', 'a','height=500,width=900,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no'); a.focus();
VO attribute BpelInstanceUrl has value "http://www.google.com/".
When I specify the above destination uri using VO attribute 'BpelInstanceUrl', I get the following url on the link:
javascript:var a = window.open('http%u003a//www.google.com/', 'a','height=500,width=900,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no'); a.focus();
I searched the forum, but couldn't find any discussion on setting destination uri to an external url based on the value of a VO attribute.
Thanks for the help. Waiting for your valuable inputs.

Shiv,
I don't think your suggestion will work, because jsp redirect which framework will use internally will take default port number if fully qualified url(like http://www.google.com/') is not used.So, Ritesh will have the same problem as he mentioned.
Now, Ritesh coming back to your problem, the solution is to attach the fully qualified url in the table component at runtime. This will help you in two forms:
1)There will be no MAC key validation for your javascript generated url.
2)Your fully qauilified url will be attached to url property at runtime, so would not face the current problem.
Hence you need to use bound values api. Here is the sample code:
OATableBean tableBean =
(OATableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("<table item id>");
OAMessageStyledTextBean m= (OAMessageStyledTextBean)tableBean.findChildRecursive("<message styled text in table item id>");
OADataBoundValueViewObject tip1 = new OADataBoundValueViewObject(m, "<vo attr name which stores url for each row>");
m.setAttributeValue(oracle.cabo.ui.UIConstants.DESTINATION_ATTR, tip1);
I hope i am clear.

Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3 query

Hi,
I've seen a number of threads on here about the above message, but most are answered/archived, so no replies are allowed.
I managed to set up the Mac Mini server and get a VPN up and running quite successfully, however the upload speed was incredibly slow (especially given what the ISP advertises). I thought bypassing my airport extreme may help this, so I attempted to plug directly into the modem (which is a router in itself, but pretty limited). I have 5 static public IP's from my ISP, so I configured the Mac Mini to have one which I knew wasn't being used. Connection to internet all worked, but this message began appearing when I tried to go into Server Preferences (to change VPN settings)
I've read that this message often occurs in relation to static IPs, or rather the lack of. Given that I had assigned the Mac Mini to one of the static IP's, I'm not certain what the problem might have been.
Plugging the server back into the Airport Extreme, and reconfiguring the network settings for the router setup fixed the issue, and I was able to access Server Prefs again.
My knowledge in this area isn't all that vast, so I'm sort of learning as I go, so please be as plain and simple as you can - thanks a lot!

One of our servers (10.6.8) that had been running for months suddenly started generating that error message when trying to access Server Preferences. Workgroup Manager, which seems to use the same login information, accessed just fine. We tried deleting access information in Keychain, to no avail. What finally worked for US was:
- Via Server Admin, (in Open Directory > Settings > General) change the Role: Open Directory from Master to Standalone
- This (for us) then restored access to Server Prefs
- Use Server Admin to change the Role back to Master
Warnings - 1) backup first 2) you will have to reinstall the master password, and 3) ALL accounts were lost and had to be recreated.

Preferred Credentials, Vista Ultimate, Oracle 10.2.0.3

I do have an Oracle Db Rel 11.1 running on Notebook with Vista Ultimate (ok ok i know ;-)
Everything is working without problems
Now i installed Oracle 10.2.0.3 for Vista in a different home on the same notebook - Installation finished without errors - dbconsole running and i can enter Oracle Enterprise manager but
when i try to set preferred credentials for this db to log on to the host i always get the answer that the connect to system failed using the given credentials - the account i use for connect to host is the same as i use in my 11.1 db. account and password are correct. And after this failed check i recieve a message from Microsoft system the Oracle Enterprise executable has been stopped due an error.
Same problem i do have when i try to create a job and give host account.
the used host account does have the right *log on as batch job
Any Ideas?? Thanks

11g OEM GC - Preferred Credentials

Hi all,
Having some problems with setting preferred credentials for an 11g database on 11g grid control. Both systems are Oracle Linux 5.6 one is x64 and the x86.
It excepts SYSTEM but not SYS and not the ORACLE user.
I have tested ssh from the OEM server to the DB server in question as the ORACLE user.
I have been able to connect via TNS from the OEM box to the DB box as SYSTEM but SYS does not work and errors as insufficient privileges.
I have started an SR with Oracle but yet to hear from them. Just wondered if anyone in the community has had problems.
Thanks to all!

I'm afraid I have been through this and it actually make the problem worse. When I enable a password file, which I did not have in place, it completely locks out the sys user.
I am yet to hear back from the SR I started. I will let you know what the outcome is from this.
Edited by: Jamie Gadong on Jul 19, 2011 2:50 AMHi,
I agree with Frank.
First connect to the database from the database as user SYS, using:
sqlplus / as sysdbaThen using another shell, create a password file for the database.
Make sure you use the same password for this password file as the SYS user has, or change the password of SYS afterwards.

Unable to set Host Preferred Credentials in OEM

Hi Experts,
I installed Oracle 10g R2 on on windows machine (XP Professional SP2).
Everything is OK except I can't set Host Preferred Credentials.
I logged in Windows using Windows Domain account, connected EM DB console as sysdba.
I used domain user name to set Host Credentials and get the error:
Connection to "mysystemname" as user xxxx failed: ERROR: Wrong password for user
I also added the user to "Log on as a batch job" under Local policies.
Then I set oracle as Host Credential, still get the same error.
Please help me how should I set the Host Credentials for Oracle 10g on Windows?
Thanks in advance

The keyword here is domain user, so not local user.
Normally Oracle runs using a local account, and you need that local account to connect.
You can try to make sure the domain account is a member of the local ora_dba group.
If that doesn't work, you probably need to start the Oracle service using a domain administrator account.
