Thank you, Thomas and Rich, for the quick response. Changing the ownership of /var/run/dirsrv worked like a charm. Regards, Jerome -----Original Message----- From: Jerome Yanga Sent: Monday, September 22, 2008 12:27 PM To: 'fedora-directory-users@xxxxxxxxxx' Subject: setup-ds-admin.pl issue? Fedora Directory Server 1.1.2 seems to have a broken setup-ds-admin.pl. Is anybody else getting the same error below? I have tried Express, Typical and Custom setup types and all of them give me this error. I have even rebuilt the server and started from scratch. The console gives me the following messages... "Creating directory server . . . Server failed to start !!! Please check errors log for problems Possible timeout starting server: timeout=1222110628 now=1222110629 Could not start the directory server using command '/usr/lib/dirsrv/slapd-basis/start-slapd'. The last line from the error log was '[22/Sep/2008:12:00:29 -0700] - Fedora-Directory/1.1.2 B2008.248.1448 starting up '. Error: Unknown error 256 Error: Could not create directory server instance 'instance_name'. Exiting . . ." The setup log shows the following... "[08/09/22:12:10:29] - [Setup] Info Could not start the directory server using command '/usr/lib/dirs rv/slapd-basis/start-slapd'.

FYI, I followed the same procedure and setup answers with Fedora Directory Server 1.1.1 a few weeks ago and it worked. Help.
