I'm wondering if an alternate option here Mark is to use the presence of a defaults.inf in one of the known locations or via PREFIX, similar to src/lib389/lib389/paths.py, or even exposing that in a tool like ds_present that returns a 1/0 based on if a defaults.inf can be found. That would solve the case with lib389 present but not a 389-ds-base. Simply loading Paths() isn't enough, because it's lazy loaded. but you could do Paths().with_systemd to trigger the read? >> >> Just an idea :) > There are several checks we do before we load the Directory Server UI. First we check if 389-ds-base is even installed. This is the rpm check. If it is installed, then we check if there is at least one instance available (via lib389). If any of these conditions are not met we load a unique page describing the problem and how to fix it. > > At this time the cockpit plugin will NOT work with custom PREFIX'ed builds as there is no way to tell cockpit or lib389 that DS is under a custom location. Checking for defaults.inf might be an option to find and set the PREFIX env var when calling the CLI from the UI, but it would still require a significant amount of grunt work to the UI source code to make this work. I wonder if the ".dsrc" functionality could be extended to handler this case and set the PREFIX in lib389 for us? Contributions are always welcome :-) I guess it's why I haven't run into it myself, cockpit isn't supported on SUSE so I haven't got an avenue to test this ... Something to always remember Alberto, is that the CLI tools (dsctl, dsconf and dsidm) offer feature parity to the cockpit modules, and it can be easier to take notes for docs with CLI so that's always an option. (And the cli tools do work with prefix builds!) Another option like Mark said, is build your own rpms with make -f rpm.mk rpms and install those :) Hope that helps! > >> >> >>> Thanks anyway. >>> >>> Alberto Viana >>> >>> On Tue, Mar 3, 2020 at 9:32 PM William Brown <wbrown@xxxxxxx> wrote: >>> >>> >>>> On 4 Mar 2020, at 04:07, Mark Reynolds <mreynolds@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> On 3/3/20 1:01 PM, Mark Reynolds wrote: >>>>> >>>>> On 3/3/20 12:28 PM, Alberto Viana wrote: >>>>>> Hi Guys, >>>>>> >>>>>> I'm testing some versions of 389 and I realise that in newer versions, cockpit stopped to work to me: >>>>>> >>>>>> There is no 389-ds-base package installed on this system.
