Error: unknown. > [Setup] Fatal Failed to create the configuration directory server For one thing, you cannot run setup-ds-admin.pl again unless you first do some clean up: service dirsrv stop service dirsrv-admin stop rm /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/adm.conf /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/local.conf /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/admpw rm -rf /var/log/dirsrv/admin-serv/* rm -rf `find /etc/dirsrv /usr/lib/dirsrv /usr/lib64/dirsrv /var -name slapd-yourinstancename\*` Note - replace yourinstancename with your actual instance name - also run the find command by itself to make sure it actually finds what it is supposed to find (or you may nuke your file system) Then, when you are ready to run setup-ds-admin.pl again, use -ddd to enable verbose output. > [Setup] Fatal Exiting . . . > > I have been trying to get this dir server running for a week without > any luck.
