When I run either setup-ds.pl or setup-ds-admin.pl, I go through all
the prompts and get an error saying it's unable to start the server
and that I should check the error logs. Here's the contents of the
error log:

It seems to think we've started. Not a lot of help. So I run 'sevice
dirsrv start', which fails. The only new line in the error log is:
[18/Sep/2008:13:20:57 -021800] - Fedora-Directory/1.1.2 B2008.248.1443

Again, not much help. So I changed the debug level by modifying the
startup script and adding a -d option to the ns-slapd command. When I
try to start from the command line, I get this:
Starting dirsrv:
ldap...[18/Sep/2008:13:57:33 -021800] Fedora-Directory/1.1.2 -
debug level: accesscontrol (128)
[18/Sep/2008:13:57:33 -021800] - Fedora-Directory/1.1.2 B2008.248.1443
starting up
Failed to open stats file (/var/run/dirsrv/slapd-ldap.stats) (error 1).
[FAILED]
*** Warning: 1 instance(s) failed to start
Finally, something helpful! First, why isn't this going to the error
log? Second, and most importantly, what do I do about it?
I don't know if it's trying to read the file, write the file, do it as
root, or as nobody. I turned selinux off just to be sure that isn't
the issue, but I'd prefer to run with it on.
It's a fresh FC9 install, with all patches applied.
TIA,
Dave
