can't login to Directory Service Control Center 6

After installition of Sun JES 5 Directory Server (OS Solaris SPARC 9) i'm trying to login to DSCC.

I provide username admin and a password for admin.

But after clicking the LogIn Button I see a message Authentification error.

IWhen I explore a Directory server through LADP browser (as cn=Directory manager) I can't see the cn=Administrators,cn=config subtree at all (and cn=config subtree is missing, too).

This subtee is present in the <instance-path>/config/dse.ldif file, however.

Is it normal? Or should I create this subtree manually?

There is clearly something broken with the private DS instance (registry).

I would strongly suggest that you remove and recreate the registry:

# /opt/SUNWdsee/dscc6/bin/dsccsetup ads-delete

(check that that there is no remaining files under /var/opt/SUNWdsee/dscc6/)

# /opt/SUNWdsee/dscc6/bin/dsccsetup ads-create

Regards,

Ludovic.

Hope it helps!

I have the same issue with the installation in XP.

I also try to update the admin password with one of the following commands, so I am sure the password is correct.

1. wcadmin password -a (This command does not work in XP environment ...).

2. wcadmin -assword -f passwordfile.txt

The 2nd commnad seems ok, but still can log on the web console with admin and password.

I checked the system and I knew that the webconsole, directory server instance, dscc6 agent, cacao agent are all running .....

I also tried to run dsccsetup dismantle and then dsccsetup initialize ...

I believe DSCC 6 work fine in Solaris system, but anyone manage DSCC 6 work in XP environment? We don't have Solaris system setup yet, most of the people here are using their laptop as development environment . Developers are complaining about DSCC6 each day ...

Any help is highly appreciated.

Best

The admin user ID and password are stored in the registry. The full dn of this admin id is : cn=Admin,cn=Administrators,ccn=config, cn=dscc.

As Ludovic mentioned, I guess your registry is broken as well. Can you retry creating this registry?

When you re-login, can you check your log file? If still getting problem, can you post your log file here?

Thanks!

Hi!

I've tried recreating registry several times.

But when I'm trying to login (after restarting directory server), the problem persists ;(

I still can't login. But when I observe DS logs (Directory_Server.instance-path/logs)

I can see nothing in *access logs

And in error logs I can see

I wonder if troubles with COS could lead to my disability to login to DSCC ?
