This looks like a different problem. This is what usually happens if you run setup again without having first cleaned up everything from the prior run. One problem with setup-ds-admin.pl is that you cannot simply run it again - it will detect the previous configuration (however broken it may be).

That's what I thought -- and can't understand. :) This is a fresh install of RHEL; I did a find / -name dirsrv and it came up with nada. Zero. Zilch! I'm not sure what else to look for?
No dirsrv directories at all? There should be some - try rpm -V fedora-ds-base - if that has problems, try yum reinstall fedora-ds- base finally, try setup-ds-admin.pl -ddd to generate debug output - log file is in /tmp

Thanks, guys. The problem was this: I was trying to create a new LDAP server with the same name (i.e., hostname) as a server that already existed on my network. So, the admin server configuration utility was freaking out. I played with the /etc/hosts file and now life is good. Thanks for the help! Now I have another problem, but I'll create a new thread :)
