Installing Directory Server 6.0 on Linux

I am installing Directory Server 6.0 on RH Linux Enterprise 4 and I am having problems with the web console not being installed. This is my first attempt at installing and working with Directory Server.

After installing from JAVA ES5, I run the following commands:

/opt/sun/dscc6/bin/dsccsetup initialize

/opt/sun/dscc6/bin/dsccsetup status

and get the following message:

***

***

***

Installation is corrupted : DSCC Application is installed without Sun Java (TM) Web Console!

***

Installation is corrupted: DSCC Agent is installed without Cacao!

***

DSCC Registry has not been created yet.

***

The web console is part of the JAVA ES5 shared components, but I have not found documentation that states how to install and setup the web console in the Sun Java ES 5 documentation.

Any information on how to get around his problem would be appreciated.

If you have installed from Java ES5 and its Installer utility, then all required shared components should have been installed.How did you install the Directory Server RPMs ?Regards,Ludovic.

The problem resulted from installing and uninstalling Java ES on Linux. After uninstalling Java ES, the web console was removed either by me cleaning up Java ES directories or by the Java ES installer. However, the Java ES installer still recognized the shared components as installed. The Java ES installer does not allow a forced reinstall of the shared components in this situation so once this happens you are stuck with corrupted shared components.

For my situation it was simple enough to reinstall Linux and start over.

i dont think u needed to reinstall linux. you could grep for sun-* rpms [using rpm -qa | grep sun] and remove them forcibly [using rpm -e --force <rpm-list>] and trigger the javaes5 installer once more

You do not need to re-install Linux, but probably just to manually remove the RPMs and cleanup the Java ES software registry (a search on this forum will give you the exact location of the registry).Regards,Ludovic.
