Xcode on OSX server

I want to run xcode on one of my network accounts that is linked to OSX server. When I ran a project on the network account it would not run the iphone simulator. Not sure if this is a permissions issue. What is the best solution for this?
Regards
Brian

Anything relevent in the console logs?
Are all the other pieces of Xcode working?
Tried this workaround? (If that works, might want to log a bug with Apple...)
Which versions of Xcode, and of OS X, and of OS X Server?

Installing Imagemagick on OSX Server

Hi
I'm trying to install Imagemagick onto the server. If I follow these instructions
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php?ImageMagick=1l0pnkv7t9gp1m a6p2vi3epu13#macosx
I get an error of:
dyld: unknown required load command 0x80000022 osx server imagemagick
I've looked around and can't seem to find anywhere that tells me how to install it
I'm wondering whether to use macports but will this change my localhost directories, etc... and mess up the other things I have running on the server
Cheers
Andy

Hi,
I've installed Imagemagick on 10.5 and 10.6 client. Haven't had the need on server yet but it shouldn't be much different. Other installs to /usr/local on server have worked fine for me.
XCODE 3 and X11 must be installed prior to continuing with the following installation on Mac OS 10.4 & 10.5
Go to http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20080818051248464
which has you run a series of bash scripts: at http://pastie.org/254887
This loads the modern image formats (jpeg and png), then ghostscript fonts needed for rmagick.
Then ImageMagick itself is loaded and all links point to it within the location it was compiled.
I selected /usr/local
Test the installation by
start up an X11 terminal window by starting Applications -> Utilities -> X11
$ cd ImageMagick-6.5.2-5/images
$ convert logo: logo.gif
$ identify logo.gif
$ display logo.gif
which should produce the sorcerer image on the X11 terminal window.
There is a single shell script for doing all this on 10.6 with the options for architecture setup.
HTH,

OSX Server mountain lion Run python web app wsgi

I'm using OSX Server.app of mountain lion. I want to run python web application on my Server.
How can I add wsgi application to my Web sites?
I think I must edit /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/httpd_wsgi.conf and /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/webapps/com.example.mywebapp.plist.
How should I edit these files?

Server.app already includes the mod_wsgi module and a default mod_wsgi webapp example at /Library/Server/Web/Data/WebApps/hello.wsgi. It's best to leave these as-is and duplicate the files to add additional sites just in case you mess up the config.
Decide where to store your site preferably in the Sites folder. You are right about editing the files you mentioned, however copy and rename them to something like httpd_wsgi.maasaamiichii.conf. Edit that file to set your own WSGIScriptAlias, for example
WSGIScriptAlias /WSGI /Users/maasaamiichii/Sites/WSGI.wsgi
Also edit the .plist file changing 3 keys to your own stuff to match the .conf file. This file should be edited in XCode and remember the ownership has be root:wheel 644 to run. After adding these files you may need to restart the server and/or Server.app.
Next edit the file at /private/etc/hosts to include an entry like
127.0.0.1 maasaamiichii.dev
This so your browsers know the domain is on your devbox machine.
With these steps done, open the Server.app and select Websites in the sidebar. Invent a website name, let's say maasaamiichii.dev is your devbox name and maasaamiichii.com is your internet name. Path needs to match the WSGIScriptAlias path above. Select "Advanced Settings" and enable the middle 3 options (htaccess, folder & cgi). In the bottom box select the Python WSGI webapp to run on that site. Save and you are finished. Back on the front window you can see your website by clicking the lower right corner link.
Please note that the default mod_wsgi as included at
/Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_wsgi.so
runs the included Python version 2.6? and as such is outdated. Python 3 scripts may not run without custom building mod_wsgi. In addition, the included mod_wsgi is built for "embedded mode" and so the example script forgets all data between threads. To make it remember values persistently the module needs to be compiled for "daemon mode". So depending on what your purpose is for this website, the default config may not be enough persistence.

Adobe CC with OSX server

We used the Adobe Creative Suite for a long time in a situation where users login through on open directory osx server.
It worked fine until we started to use Adobe Creative Cloud. We use the Enterprise version.
Computers are very slow now, especially Indesign crashes a lot and can sometimes not even be opened anymore.
Has anybody experienced the same problems?
Regards,
Martin

Martin,
Have you made any progress on this issue or found out anymore about running CC in a server environment? I am researching the same thing now and can't find straight answers.
Thanks,
Thomas

How do I install Mavericks without invoking the OSX Server Plugin?

How do I perfrom a clean install of Mavericks from the Recovery Partition without it automatically installing, and then invoking or executing the OSX Server Plugin that ultimately results in rendering open directory operable as well as the server. I have ignored this continously, but the other day I went into the terminal and typed ARP -s that lists the shortname for the host of my MacBook Pro and it gave a totally different name than what I had given it in the wi-fi network interface under the WINS tab. More importantly, I do not want to install open directory nor the osx server plugin as it opens up more complexity than I want to deal with. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated. BTW, below are the steps I performed for installing Mavericks.
1. Powered on the MacBook Pro and then hit the Option key.
2. This took me into the Recovery Partition, whereby I went into the Disk Util and erased or formatted the hard-drive.
3. I then clicked out of the Disk Utility and went into the Recovery Mode by clicking on reinstall the current OS.
4. I went through all the prompts and the system downloaded a current version of Mavericks.
5. After completion, I turned on my Macbook Pro and went through the prompts to install Mavericks.
6. This is all I did, and I didn't download the OSX plugin nor invoke it in the new version of the Operating System.
I just assumed that it was a standalone version until I found the server for osx running with open directory invoked, the server invoked, along
with other components relative to a new standalone version.
Again, my question is simple: How can I reinstall Mavericks without it downloading and automatically
iinvoking the components as described above?

Hi. Because both Mavericks and Windows 8 are still new, they may not be free of error. Apple needs more time to perform more tests to ensure that these two different OS's will work properly without getting in conflicts. If it's posdible, I highly recommand you to downgrade back to Lion or Mountain Lion and install Windows 7 (if you have a copy of it). In my experience, all advises from Genius Bar members and computer articles confirm that Windows 7 will work on Macs with Lion OS. It should also work on Mountain Lion. Besides Boot Camp, you could try to virtualize Windows OS and its applications by using VirtualBox, CrossOver and other VMs. I already have an Oracle VirtualBox but I would like to try Boot Camp since it allows me to enjoy almost all Windows features that may be limited in VMs.

Will I have OSX Server in my App Store if I buy a "Mac Mini with OSX Server"?

I am planning on buying Mac Mini for a Home Media Server, and I am curious if the OSX Server will be added to my account. Or do you think I would better get the same system configuration without the OSX Server, then buy it from the App Store? Is there going to be a difference between the two different processes.

It won't automatically be added to your account unless you supply your account details when you buy. But once you've received your server you can phone Apple Sales and give your details (including order number or server serial number) and they should add Server to your account for you.
What you actually get will be identical.

Does simple file and folder sharing on an iMac work with OSX Server?

Hi There
I wonder if I should install OSX Server on an iMac wher several users work on the same files and folders.
My question - before I do something I might regret:
Does simple file and folder sharing on an iMac within several users really work with the help of OSX Server?
All I want to be able to do:
Admin creates a new folder1 and gives it read- and write access for user1 and user2.
User1 creates a subfolder1 in folder1, and a document1 in subfolder1.
User2 edits document1. Later Admin edits document1.
All these simple editing of files and folders (and subfolders) within a main folder should be possible. This is not possible now.
Is everything clear? I'm not a network specialist or something, I just want to give some co-workers access to some data on my computer without problems.

So what you need are recursive permissions.
I suggest you create a group and add user1 and user2 to that group. You can name that group whatever you want, but for now i will call it FSUsers
Execute this in terminal. Replace FSUsers with your new group
sudo chmod -R +a "FSUsers allow list,add_file,search,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextat tr,writeextattr,readsecurity,file_inherit,directory_inherit" /Users/Shared/*
Replace /Users/Shared with the location of your shared folder. Make sure you keep the /* at the end (this allows all subfolders and files to get the same permissions.
If you need to add people to the share just add them to the FSUsers group, the FSUsers group should should also be allowed in the sharing preferences.

Pop/Imap retrieving and redistribute in LAN with OsX Server

It's possible to download mail accounts hosted in my isp and redistribut'em in my lan with OsX Server with it's own mail server?
The scope is not to have a local server mail because we have ADSL and sometimes the line broke up...
We prefere have mail hosted more securely in our external isp.
But an internal mail server is a commodity very useful...
Sorry if the questions is answered before...
Thanks in advance.

Maybe not easy but should work:

Using Amazon S3 as linked storage with OSX Server 10.6.7

Hello everyone!
I will be getting a nice Mac Mini OSX Server tomorrow. I'm not new to networking and I've done over a month of reading the PDF's here that are related to the server and software. I think it's a great tool at a great price.
My question is:
1) Is there a way I can use the S3 Amazon Simple Storage Service as secured linked storage space or SMB to the OS X Server?
2) Is there a way that the OSX Server software can pass both the S3 Access Key and Secret Key to S3 to securely access directories on the S3 Amazon Cloud?
I would like to use S3 Amazon Simple Storage as a secured disk space solution that would be reliable a quick. Am I asking too much?
Thanks!
JT

Would it be a good idea to have another computer link to the Amazon S3 then have the OSX Server link through that computer to S3?
Or would I have to create a script / CGI to authenticate to Amazon S3 to access the directories.
My goal is to use Amazon S3 as copy and playback storage.Like a hard disk connected to the OSX Server via a firewire or an Ethernet connection. Does the sound too simple? It must be possible.

Can I use my external hdd with OSX server

Hi i am thinking about using OSX server, but I dont have very much space on the computer I would b running it of of so I would store everything on my 4TB Wd external HDD. Is this posible, and how would I set it up to do that? Also, my external also has some backups from other computers on it and will I loose any of that? I would probably partition it so that 1TB of it has all the servers files and everything.
Thanks,
Ben

Yep you can use any connected drive for server storage, its under the settings tab called Service Data
No you wouldn't lose anything on the drive (assuming its Mac formatted) but clean partition would be a good idea

Help for first install of macpro with osx server

Hello to all
it's my first message on this forum, i'm seeking for help because i'm kind of new with Mac systems.
I'm gonna explain the problem
So we are going to buy a mac pro and put 4*2To inside with raid 5 and osx server.
The problem is that the cost of installation of sotwre and deployement etc is really expensive.
I need to create a vpn too, this mac pro is gonna be a storage and multiple users must have acces to it. In fact this mac will be connected on the router and users will acces to it on local network then later we're gonna move from our base so the mac will be at the home of one of us and other users will have to access it from outside.
I was thinking avoyding cost of install by doing it myself.
So i've thinked that the best way to do it is by asking help to the community.
Is anyone can help me with this or tell me where i can find tutorials to do it?
I have skills but this is hard form me. The thing is that i learn fast. But i need help.
Maybe my post is not really clear i write as it comes to me, english is not my langage too.
So feel free to ask me questions or informations if you need.
In the same time i'm reading posts on the foum about this kindof installations.
Thank u so much
.anto.

Dear Marcassin
i am happy to help to your problem .
first i would say you must read the Documentation. and you should familier with Mac Os installation System.
in your Mac Server DVD you will find the schedule sheet . print that and plan your server first. it will really help full. then come and list down the all the requirements.
may be you will need more services after that.
But again again again . read that sheet and fill all the requirements. and come back or read specific captors in the Documentation.
if you want more details about the installing sachira.herath at gmail

Outlook doesn't want to connect with OSX Server on 2 out of 3 clients

I have three computers on which I have installed Outlook 2011. All three are running Mavericks. On one of them, a MacBook air, I have established an outlook account connecting to my OSX server with no problems. On the other two computers when I set the parameters the same way, I cannot establish an outlook account. When I use Apple Mail on any of the three machines, I am able to establish accounts for iCloud and the OSX server with no problems. Can anyone point me to the source of this problem or a method for trouble shooting it?

Hi tommy-ch,

There are more experience user on bootcamp that might gladly help you out.
Good Luck.

Managing a remote unix box with OSX server apps...

Aside from running an OSX server, I am in charge of maintaining an external, SUN unix server from my Mac, and I hate using line commands, esp. with how jaded I've become using the nice tools for managing the Mac server. For now I use terminal in order to change passwords, set permissions and so on as the sudo user on the unix box, and use rbrowser to edit cron jobs.
So, my question is, is there a way to get the OSX server admin tool to think the unix box is an OSX server? And if not, is there a graphical interface to maintain the server (it's running Apache too)? Rbrowser is cool and all, but doesn't let me use sudo for making chnages.
Thanks for any help.
Greg

Bummer about not having the Mac feel on SUN. Life can't always be perfect.
As far as the Webmin, no, haven't heard of it, but it sounds cool. The trick would be getting a huge client like SD County to let us buy it, then go through all the hoops and red tape to get it installed. Most likely their answer would be "Well, what have you been using this whole time and why isn't that good enough now all of a sudden?".
So for the time being, I'l have to be happy using RBrowser for file transfers between the test and production servers (beats the pants off of typing scp -p -i over and over again) and editing cron scripts. Too bad it doesn't provide sudo for changing passwords, groups, and so forth.
I'm this close to having the perfect work environment (the office I work in was all Windows with Dell laptops...until now).

TV don't work with OSX Server software?

Everything worked great BEFORE I updated our MacMini Intel to OSX Server software, now iTunes can't find the recent found Apple TV. And therefore the connection is gone and the syncing don't work anymore.
Any work-around or suggestions on how to solve this?
Or do I have to revert to previus userversion of OSX to make it work again?
Is there a limitation built into OSX Server software or is there maybe some kind of firewall / preferences etc that needs to be adjusted? (The built in firewall has been disconnected.)
FYI:
All apps are up to date. The Mac Mini + Apple TV is on my local network at home and I'm trying to make it my family's digital hub for all family-related media.

1) I've not tried to reset ATV from scratch. But it works fine on other Mac's on the network (sharing).
2) Security options, yes I belive so to. I've followed all instructions and opened all ports I've seen mentioned i apples Knowledge database / support. Still don't work. Maybe I've missed some ports...
3) YES! It works fine sharing the MacMinis lib over the network.
4) Today I also tried to reinstall iTunes. But no luck.
Any mor suggestions anyone? Thx
I really wanny solve this, otherwhise my ATV is pretty useless for me...
