After doing fairly well for the last few days, I've had an unusual
error all day today. I started having problems that I've had before
(error = "task \"iTunesU_mp4_audio_high\" failed with status \"255\"
on agent \"Podcast Producer\"";). I attempted to reset my iTunes U
Shared Secret and Server Admin crashed. Not only did Server Admin
crash on my desktop, but it crashed on the server itself (via ARD and
at the server itself), and on 2 other Macs (10.5) used as server admin
stations. I cannot edit the Shared Secret anywhere without crashing
server admin.
Luckily enough Podcast Producer failed before I was going to demo the
system and ask for funds to buy equipment.
I tossed the Server Admin plist but that did not work. Log entry below:
Thanks,
Dean Roberts
