Has anyone been able to install the admin server as a non-root user? With a fresh install, not an upgrade, if I try to use a non-root user "ldapas" instead then the admin server refues to start and leaves a cryptic error message in the logs. Any suggestions? $ setup/setup ... Can't start Admin server [/opt/fedora-ds/start-admin > /tmp/file2dDMoZ 2>&1] (error: No such file or directory) You can now use the console. Here is the command to use to start the console: cd /opt/fedora-ds ./startconsole -u admin -a http://straylight.ensenda.com:16116/ INFO Finished with setup, logfile is setup/setup.log [/opt/fedora-ds]$ lsl -ad . drwxr-xr-x 15 ldapas ldapas 4096 Dec 6 13:12 ./ [/opt/fedora-ds]$ sudo ./start-admin [/opt/fedora-ds]$ telnet localhost 16116 Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused [/opt/fedora-ds]$ tail admin-serv/logs/error [Tue Dec 06 13:14:06 2005] [crit] host_ip_init(): PSET failure: Failed to create PSET handle (pset error = ) Configuration Failed [/opt/fedora-ds]$ grep ldapas /etc/passwd ldapas:x:101:102::/opt/fedora-ds:/bin/bash On a side note, is there any reason not to use the standard redhat "ldap" user instead of "nobody" for the default suggested slapd user? My impression was that "nobody" should not own any files on the filesystem. -- Kevin M. Goess (415) 277-2079 Ensenda, Inc.
