servermgrd crashes when Server Admin tries to connect



Now, for some reason, when our OSXS server (dual 2GHz G5 PowerMac 10.4.8 8GB) is accessed with Server Admin, the servermgrd process crashes, and Server Admin can't connect. This happens if Server Admin is run locally or remotely.

Server Admin[357] Server got an empty response (servermgr_info may have crashed)
crashdump[444]: servermgrd crashed


I'm guessing that there's some sort of file corruption involved here, as the crash logs (below) make little sense to me. I've run 'repair disk' and 'repair permissions', and a full Disk Warrior run on the boot drive (they didn't find much). No changes or upgrades were done to the system to prompt this. Everything else on the system runs fine.

Server Admin consistently crashes in two different ways.

Out of curiosity, I did a fs_usage on the Server Admin process, and the file Server Admin accesses just before it crashes is:
17:19:03.258 open F=17 /private/var/servermgrd//servermgr_info.lock 0.000051 servermgrd
(It's a binary lock file that gets recreated every time I try to connect to the system with Server Admin.)
-rwxr-x--- 1 root wheel 307142 Feb 28 17:19 /private/var/servermgrd/ servermgr_info.lock


So, as a test, I temporarily renamed the entire /private/var/ servermgrd folder, along with the com.apple.ServerAdmin.plist, and restarted. Still no difference. Deleting and re-adding the server entry in Server Admin doesn't help either.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
