DS 6.1 Windows 2003 (Failed to list running instances.)

When trying to install either the patch on the full install of DS 6.1on Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition I receive this error:

dsee_deploy install -p 11169 -i e:\data\ds1

...

Do you accept the license terms ? <yes/no> : yes

Error: Failed to list running instances.

Any ideas?

In the same directory of dsee_deploy, you've got a dsee_data directory. Can you try to rundsee_data\listrunnings.exe -i e:\data\ds1 DS ?Regards,Carole

After looking around a bit more last night, I noticed a -v option for verbose and it appears it is looking for a Directory Proxy Server, which I do not have installed:

Do you accept the license terms ? <yes/no> : yes

Ignoring -p option. Replaced by current cacao port: 11162

Checking running Directory Proxy Server instances

Error: Failed to list running instances.

Here is the output from dsee_data\listrunnings.exe -i e:\data\ds1 DS eventhough I have a directory server running:

whoops, it looks like I ran that command on the wrong path here is the output against the right one. I have the install and the data in different directories:dsee_data\listrunnings.exe -i e:\Sun\DS DSPidInstance path - 1212 e:/Data/ds11 processes found

I found this error in the Application Event Viewer

Faulting application listrunnings.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module msvcrt.dll, version 7.0.3790.3959, fault address 0x00038efa.

This seems to be an issue of how this command is called from within the script, since I can run it directly.

dsee_deploy launches listrunnings twice: first time looking for running DS instances, second time looking for running DPS instance. Looking at your trace, the error occurs in the second call:

dsee_data\listrunnings.exe -i e:\Sun\DS DPS

Some more questions: do you use VMware ? Have you ever install Java Enterprise System 5 on your machine ?

Regards,

Carole

No, this is a new hard iron box that we just setup to get off of VMWare becuase of performance issues. It is a fresh install.Yes, I installed 6.0 from the native packages and have unistalled it because no upgrade to 6.1 is avaialable in navtive for Windows.

Was a fix found for this problem? I'm seeing exactly the same error when I try to install DSEE on my Windows 2003 server.

This is definitively a bug which occurs on some Windows 2003 platforms. We haven't found yet on which platform exactly. But we have the fix. It will be delivered in 6.2 (planned for fall 2007).Regards,CaroleDirectory Server Dev Team.

Thanks for the information Carole. I am testing a new LDAP client with various LDAP implementations. Unfortunately I won't be able to test it with DSEE now because testing must be complete before the fall. I hope the others will be enough (Fedora, Novell and Windows) Steve.

Steve,

If you are a Directory Customer, you can contact your Sun support representative and get a fix for this issue almost immediately.

Otherwise, you may want to test using Directory Server running on another supported OS. This pb is only occuring with Windows (and not all machines).

Regards,

Ludovic.
