SunONE Directory server fails to install on RHEL 3 U6

Hello
we are trying to deploy a Sun Directory server 5.2 on a machine that runs RHEL3 Update 6. It comes back with the following error message:
ERROR : Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 6) is not recognized by idsktune as a supported platform for Sun Java System Directory Server or Directory Proxy Server. Ensure you are running the version of idsktune provided with your product, or you can run idsktune in client mode (-c) if server support is not required
I know that the product is compatible with RHEL 3 U4, but we are unable to deploy this version of RHEL because of the new hardware of the server.
Please could anyone advise on how to resolve the problem. Thank you.

Hi,
idsktune should not prevent you from installing the product.
Which version of Directory Server are you trying to install ? What command are you executing ?
Regards,
Ludovic

  • SunOne Directory server on AIX 5.3

    Hello members,
    I have a question for the technical team. I am tasked to install SunOne
    directory server on AIX 5.3.
    We have already installed SunOne on AIX 5.2 and it is proven that it works fine in our live environement however it is not yet tested on AIX 5.3.
    I would like to know if SunOne 5.2 is supported by AIX 5.3 and if I should be aware any potential problems during installation.
    Thanks,
    G.S.

  • Change the User ID running the SunOne Directory Server 6.3 on Windows 2003

    Hi Experts,
    I have an install of SunOne Directory Server Enterprise edition 6.3 running on Windows 2003 server. It was installed using the Zip distribution and is running as a user ID in the Active Directory the server is part of. We are trying to change the user ID to a service account (not the current ID which belongs to a person), so that the Sun DS can run as a service within Windows 2003 server. Need help in doing this without having to re-install the Directory server. Has anyone done this and is it possible to do?

    Thank you very much for the insights and the responses sharmy28.
    Appreciate it very much.
    All I had to do was change the setting in this file only:
    Open the file dsee6/cacao_2/etc/cacao/instances/default/private/cacao.properties and change the below line with new id...
    # Define username and groupname for cacao process
    process.username=sunadmin
    process.groupname=sungroup
    As this is Windows 2003 and the installs are all default values, I had to reboot the server for the change to take effect.
    The file dsee6/cacao_2/usr/lib/cacao/lib/tools/scripts/globals.cfg does not exist. However the same file exists under the perl directory as globals.pl and the settings you specified are present there. In our case these were commented out and so I left them as is.
    Thanks once again for your responses which helped me solve the issue we had.
    Thanks.

  • How to create users with i18n characters in SunONE directory server?

    1. Started LDAP console using -l option
    2. Chaged the Locale to Japanese
    3. Entered few japanese character as username (meaning internationalization user name)
    4. However, I could not able to type the password using the "soft keyboard" that comes with Japanese Locale
    5. to overcome with #4, for now, I typed english chars as the password
    6. Click OK to save the above username/pwd
    7. It says "netscape.ldap.LDAPException: error result (19); value of attribute "uid" contains extended (8-bit) characters"
    Has anyone ever created i18n user names in SunONE Directory Provider? Please help...

    Hi LostLad,
    Soryy for my ignorance...Could you please be elaborate on how to remove "uid attribute from 7-bit ASCII plugin?
    Thanks in advance..

  • JAAS LoginModule for SunOne Directory Server?

    I have a customer who is using SunOne Directory Server for LDAP.
    I have test code that uses the JAAS's com.sun.security.auth.module.JndiLoginModule to do authentication against an OpenLDAP test server.
    The test code won't work at the customer site because they need to use a special userid/pw along with the subject userid/pw in order to do an authentication. I assume this is LDAP v3 stuff, but the customer is unsure. Unfortunately I have no direct access to the customer's LDAP admin folk. Typical bureaucracy stuff.
    The customer was able to write java code that authenticates to his LDAP server using example code from http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/ldap/security/ldap.html which uses the JNDI API and specifies the access userid/pw using Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL and Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS.
    So thats great, however my application uses JAAS, and therfore only indirectly uses JNDI. The JndiLoginModule provided by JAAS does not appear to support the Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL and Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS parameters.
    A custom JAAS LoginModule could be written which interfaces to the JNDI LDAP stuff, however considering that JAAS and the SunOne Directory server are both Sun products, I thought perhaps SunOne Directory comes with a JAAS compatible LoginModule that my customer does not know about? I've looked at online docs, but haven't found any such thing yet.

    Hey dav,
    Sorry that I am not posting to give you a solution - it is more to ask for some guidance.
    I am implementing a client-server arch system which has a lot of 'privileged' actions to be managed. I have thus succesfully integrated the basics of JAAS in to the system... but I am now desparately looking for away to have client-side policies distributed at runtime from the server.
    I do not want to get involved with any web/application server stuff more than I need to; unfortunately one of the system requirements is for client-server comms to be facilitated by SOAP over HTTP, and thus probably JAX-RPC - but it is no problem. I have a developed a database backed Policy and (JAAS) Config which constitute parts of the server component. Now it is just a case of getting the policy to the client at client start-up and subsequently the configuration forJAAS authentication. The aim is that this data will be transfered once during login, and anytime that the the policy is requested to be refreshed.
    Since reading you post, I'm wondering what services LDAP or JNDI can offer me?
    Also, is JNDI an appropriate option for data persistence? is it better to go with JDO or some other object store abstraction.
    Kind regards,
    Darren B

    It is not possible to obtain the Sun ONE Directory Server 5.2 BETA Software. There are various reasons, one is the BETA program has been closed for sometime now. The RR of the Sun ONE Directory Server 5.2 should be available at the end of May.

  • Server fails when installed the Oracle Developper Suite 10 g

    Hi all,
    I am facing a problem which is that the server fails to connect after I istalled the Oracle Developper Suite 10 g. I am using Oracle 10g for vista and I followed exactly the instructions that were posted before.
    I typed in the command prompt 'tnsping <my_database_name>', and I got the follwinf error: TNS-03505: Failed to Resolve Name.
    When I deinstalled the Oracle Developper Suite, I could easily get connected after typing the same instructions.
    Thanks in advance
    Michael

    The server does not work once the Oracle Development
    Suite is installed. When I deinstall this Oracle
    Development Suite, the server starts working again. I
    mean by "server fails to connect" that when I type in
    the command prompt 'tnsping <my_database_name>' the
    operation fails. I do not mean that the client fails
    to connect to the server, of course the connection
    between the client and server could not be
    established as the server is already down.Hi Michael,
    On Windows each new Oracle install puts itself at the front of the system path, i.e. assuming that you want to use the new environment by default. You can correct this either by editing the path manually or else by firing up the Universal Installer, selecting the "Installed Products" button and then clicking the environment tab.
    Name resolution is (ignoring fancy things like directory service support etc) done by each Oracle Home by first examining the contents of the network configuration files in a directory pointed to by the TNS_ADMIN environment variable, then by examining the files in the %ORACLE_HOME%\NETWORK\ADMIN directory where %ORACLE_HOME% is the oracle home for the executable being called. Thus when you've run tnsping you've picked up tnsping from the new developer suite install and it uses the files in it's oracle home to resolve the service name (and fails).
    You can correct this by
    1) setting TNS_ADMIN and maintaining files in one location.
    2) copying the network configuration files from the server oracle home to the developer suite oracle home.

    Hi,
    Check you have the connection to network and also firewall settings. May be you can stop antivirus (if there is any) and give a try.
    If it is loopback adapter then you may need to check the configuration.

  • How failover works with SunONE Directory Server?

    Assume that I setup 2 masters using the multimaster scheme.
    When 1 master fails/down, how do the client knows or get routed to the other master?

    For full redundancy:
    At the application level:
    -redundant storage (raid, san,nas)
    -multiple connectors to this storage (fiber,ethernet...)
    -multiple LDAP servers (multimaster, replica's)
    -multiple LDAP proxy servers
    -redundant switches/routers (vrrp, ...)
    -loadbalanced by redundant interconnected loadbalancers (level7)
    All this helps in non persistant connections, if application are using connection pooling (for performance reasons), you have to verify the behaviour. Some applications only create this pool at start, but if the pool connections brake, it should reconnect.

  • Problems while installing Sun ONE Directory Server.

    Hi all,
    I'm a newbie to LDAP amd my problem is -
    When I started Installing SunONE DS on machine first time, at the end of the installation, it thrown an error message.
    "The program cant start because nss3.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
    Later, I copied nss3.dll file to "C:\Windows\System32" and then started the installation then it thrown error again as follows -
    "Configuration of the Directory Server failed.
    Error Directory Server configuration failure
    Checking connection to the Configuration Directory Server... failed.
    The Administration Server cannot be configured.
    Error Administration Server configuration failure
    Error Configuration of the server(s) failed.
    Click Next to continue. "
    What is the reason behind this?

    Bingo, It worked. Yup, I'm using SODS 5.2, I have copied all .dll files from nsbasesystem.zip to "C:\Windows\System32".
    but now the problem is -
    Sun One Directory server service is running
    but
    Sun ONE Administration server process is not running
    I have tried to start it manually but it didn't worked. It initiates the starting of process and then suddenly shows error message that
    "The Sun ONE Administration server 5.2 service on local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."

    hopefully, you have gone through the installation doc. before installation configure hostname/IP properly
    check with this link and look at page no 21 for all the required information
