Do not upgrade to 389 1.2.1 until you have read this message. Bug 518418 - Package rename shuts down server, results in unconfigured package This was caused by renaming the packages from fedora-ds to 389. This causes RPM to first remove the fedora-ds-base and fedora-ds-admin packages which triggers this %preun scriptlet in the spec: %preun if [ $1 = 0 ]; then /sbin/service %{pkgname} stop >/dev/null 2>&1 || : /sbin/chkconfig --del %{pkgname} fi So not only does it shutdown your directory and admin servers, it removes the chkconfig settings, including your run level settings. This was an unforeseen consequence of the package rename, and we compounded the problem by pushing the package out to stable instead of testing (where it would have likely been caught). If you intend to upgrade despite this problem, please first save your run level configuration by using chkconfig --list dirsrv, and schedule the upgrade when you can tolerate a service interruption. Is there any other way around this problem? Bug 518520 - pre hashed salted passwords do not work If you use an external mechanism to generate salted SSHA passwords, authentication will fail, because the server does not take into account the salt length. We have a patch for this ready to go for 1.2.2. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
