I've been trying to promote my 10.5.7 server from standalone to OD master. I've done this many times successfully on Leo server, but this one is stuck. Forward and reverse DNS are correct, and "changeip -checkhostname" is saying hostnames match. But when I use server admin to do the promotion, I click the final 'Continue' button, and the gearwheel spins and spins for about 5-10 mins, and then throws this error:
"The server reported the error: 'kNetworkError' while processing a command of type: 'writeSettings.'
I've deleted the /Library/Preferences/DirectoryService folder, removed all LDAP entries from Directory Util, and rebooted and tried again, but I get the same error each time. I've removed the secondary unused NIC (it's on an Xserve). I've also done an erase and install of the server OS twice, manually re-creating the DNS zone files each time.
The following lines show up in the console log:
7/29/09 3:00:09 AM com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.servermgrd[49]) Exited with exit code: 1
7/29/09 3:00:10 AM Server Admin[204] XSAdminQueueController: gotServerError: kNetworkError forTransaction: <XSAdminTransaction: 0x286e70>
7/29/09 3:00:10 AM Server Admin[204] XSAdminQueueController: gotServerError: kNetworkError forTransaction: <XSAdminTransaction: 0x286e70>
7/29/09 3:03:35 AM Server Admin[204] roleBasedSetup: windowWillClose(<NSWindow: 0x6996ec0>)...
Can anyone tell me what might be happening here?
Thanks!
