[389-users] Cannot start Admin server - host_ip_init():

[Fairchild, Anthony]

Hello,

 

I have installed 389 Directory Server (v 1.2.2) and Admin Server
(v1.1.8) on RHEL 5.4, and in the process of getting SSL/TLS configured I
have somehow gotten the administration server into a state where it will
not start. When I run the init script it fails, and the
/var/log/dirsrv/admin-serv/error file has the following entry:

 

[Wed Dec 23 10:15:32 2009] [crit] host_ip_init(): PSET failure: Could
not retrieve access hosts attribute (past error = ) Configuration failed

 

Googling the problem led me to
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:AdminServerLDAPMgmt -
which contains directions for modifying the nsAdminAccessAddresses and
nsAdminAccessHosts entries, which I did. The entries are currently as
follows:

 

nsAdminAccessAddresses: *

nsAdminAccessHosts: 

 

Which from my reading of the documentation suggests that access is
unrestricted, but starting the server still fails. Does anybody out
there have a suggestion as to what it is I have broken?
