Solved 23.August:
using the brand new RC1 I re-installed my Slave from scratch. Now I can successfully establish the Master-Slave relationship. I did also purge the Master, don't know if this was really necessary...
Original message:
Hello,
I am testing 1.5 on a Lucid Server box and I have one system running. This shall be an Ldap Master of Users and Groups.
When preparing the Slave I did install only some console tools and
root@egw:~# dpkg -l |grep ebox
ii ebox 1.5.7-0ubuntu1~ppa1~lucid1 common library used by eBox platform modules
ii ebox-firewall 1.5.3-0ubuntu1~ppa1~lucid1 eBox - Firewall

ii ebox-objects 1.5.1-0ubuntu1~ppa1~lucid1 eBox - Network Objects
ii ebox-samba 1.5.6-0ubuntu1~ppa1~lucid1 eBox - File Sharing

ii libebox 1.5.5-0ubuntu1~ppa1~lucid1 eBox - Common Library
ii liborbit2 1:2.14.18-1+ebox1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB
After enabling the Network and the Firewall module I did an additional reboot. Then, without playing around, I was directly going to enable Slave mode. I entered my master's IP and password. The result is:
Can't locate object method "stringify" via package "HTML::Mason::Exception::Params" at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/CGI/ServiceModule/ConfigureModuleController.pm line 74.
The line in question reads:
throw EBox::Exceptions::Internal("Failed to enable: " .
$excep->stringify());
Unfortunately I do not know perl enough to debug this...
I did remove everything ebox-* plus slapd, rebootet and did try the same sequence again... with the same result. (Actually I did this several times, with small changes.) So this error is reproducible for me.
A search for "stringify" didn't really help me though.
Additional info: during the installation of ebox-samba I got one additional error:
Use of uninitialized value $dn in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/UsersAndGroups.pm line 472.
The script /usr/share/ebox-usersandgroups/ebox-usersandgroups-reinstall generates the same error twice:
Use of uninitialized value $dn in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/UsersAndGroups.pm line 472.
Use of uninitialized value $dn in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/Ldap.pm line 282.
The log of the last -reinstall sequence is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/467991/
Any hints are welcome ;-)

Just want to push this thread....
I have exactly the same problem, just updated to ebox 1.5.8!

I have exactly the same problem, just updated to ebox 1.5.8!
Thanks to mention this - so I know I am not alone...
Now I re-installed my slave box using the brand new ebox_installer-1.5-i386.iso. I kicked the old (virtual) hard disk out of the machine and restarted from scratch. The installer is nice, does not ask to much and leads to a running server, reachable through https://.
The "Initial configuration wizard" offers some high level profiles. I switched to advanced view and selected only "Users and Groups". This pulls in some dependencies of course.
Unfortunately at the end I got exactly the same error message "Can't locate object method "stringify" via package "HTML::Mason::Exception::Params" at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/CGI/ServiceModule/ConfigureModuleController.pm line 74."
Is any perl knowing person reading this? What am I missing?
-
Just to help with the cause
Core version 1.5.8
Trace
Can't locate object method "stringify" via package "HTML::Mason::Exception::Params" at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/CGI/ServiceModule/ConfigureModuleController.pm line 74.
i have the same problem and master/slave is a "must" wen we talk about loads of clients.
This issue is hold me back big time. I still have 105 clients machines on hold.
There is NO way i will deploy a Master with no slave.
-
There is NO way i will deploy a Master with no slave.
Sure. And it should be a mature and reliable connection as its function is essential.
Meanwhile I've tried to submit a bug report, basically with my text from above. There is a spam fighting mechanism that kept me from submitting my text. The unfortunate result is here: http://trac.ebox-platform.com/ticket/2015 (Please note the Change History also, there is a link to the "real" submission which I have put in Ubuntus Pastebin.)
Best regards

I'm suffering from this as well (see http://trac.ebox-platform.com/ticket/2012 ).
As I see it, the error message does not concern the real problem. I think, "stringify" would print a human readable error message describing what went wrong.
Sadly that's the end of my perl knowledge :(
I had 1.5 already running (3 to 4 weeks ago). That suddenly stopped synchronizing (maybe after an update). Since earlier (with 1.3 or 1.4) deleting the client on the server and reinstalling usersandgroups on the client did the trick, I tried that.
From that moment the aforementioned error message emerges, when trying to connect the client to the server.
Strangely the server lists the client on its "Slave Status" page...

Jens-Peter

there is a way to bypass this problem?
will this problem be resolved with 2.0?
i need a solution realy bad. :(
-
Just to say: "you're not alone in this case !!"
I finished filling a new ticket on that matter because I encountered exactly the same problem since two long days now ....
It appeared on a fresh new install of ubuntu 10.04 server (64bist) with latest installation of ebox (1.5.8)
As you my master ebox ldap shows correctly the slave and seems even happy with the "force sync". But from the slave (ldap slave and mail server) I got permanently this error.
In the ebox.log (in my case) It's referring to a hostname resolution problem and I was told to check my dns server but everything is ok.
I'm now stuck and my mail server is supposed to work in less than one week. Problem is that I can't enabled it without enabling the users and groups module before !!!
Hope we'll find a solution or workaround quickly...

-
Same problem here... the master shows the slave, but the slave doesn't have "Users and groups" active due to the error message.
-
Any idea if this problem is about to get solved?
-
Of course we'll try to solve it, but there isn't anything new about this yet, just stay tuned...
-
Same problem with 1.5.1
-
Hi all,
I have fixed this problem, there are still some issues with master-slave but "stringify" is not longer one of them :)
This is the fix if you want to try it before next release of ebox-usersandgroups:
https://trac.ebox-platform.com/changeset/18330

Hi all,
I have fixed this problem,
https://trac.ebox-platform.com/changeset/18330
Great! I just patched my slave and then I was able to activate the "Users and Groups"-Module.
... and then it crashed - probably not surprisingly due to the inconsistent state.
I will continue with a reboot and "/usr/share/ebox-usersandgroups/ebox-usersandgroups-reinstall"...
Best regards

I am not sure if this is the next incarnation of a bug or if I did something wrong. My current situation is: I can activate the Users and Groups Module. But when I want to Save changes I get:

It seems that ldap.conf has not been written, maybe you forgot to create ldap-slave.conf.mas file?

Yes. No.
Before accessing the web interface I did copy the content of
http://trac.ebox-platform.com/browser/trunk/client/usersandgroups/stubs/ldap-slave.conf.mas?rev=18330 into a newly created file at the same location as ldap.conf.mas exists, in: /usr/share/ebox/stubs/usersandgroups:
root@egw:/usr/share/ebox/stubs/usersandgroups# ls -al | grep ldap
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 846 2010-08-04 18:18 ldap.conf.mas
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 331 2010-08-09 17:46 ldap-slave.conf.mas
After realizing that ldap.conf is missing I copied ldap-slave.conf.mas manually to /etc/ldap.conf and adjusted two lines:
base dc=ps,dc=ebox,dc=lan
uri ldap://10.2.102.1
I know that this is basically correct because I can successfully access the master by using "ldapsearch -x uid=ub" on the command line and getting the correct response.
Nevertheless I am not sure that this is the way the Master definition should look like. The web interface fails when I try to access Users and Groups with "An internal error has occurred" and in the ebox.log file I can read:
2010/08/09 21:30:12 ERROR> Ldap.pm:177 EBox::Ldap::anonymousLdapCon - Can't create ldapi connection
Probably I should wait for the next iteration of your packages and reinstall the slave then - I have no problem to wait :-)
Thank you
-
My server is not in a Master/Slave configuration - its just as single server, but I'm noting the same behavior with LDAP and some of the errors look very much like the same ones I'm getting. Is there a procedure to complete purge perl, apache, ebox, and all depedent modules and configuration files and start from scratch (aside from the obvious reformat)?

To remove all eBox-components try:
~# apt-get --purge remove ebox*
To additionally remove now unused dependencies:
~# apt-get --purge autoremove
Best regards

I have tried with this solution but i continues getting this error:

Well, the last time I ran the 'sudo apt-get autoremove' command, it blew away my gnome desktop. So I'm not sure how well that would work... Although I did note some updates last night that I'll run. I plan to run the ebox purge and then the autoremove command again and then start from scratch.

With the availability of ebox-usersandgroups_1.5.5-0ubuntu1~ppa1~lucid1_all.deb I gave it another try. Unfortunately without success.

~#apt-get --purge remove slapd ldap-utils ebox* samba* apache* redis*
~#reboot

My ebox problem is solved and its up and running again flawlessly. As per some of the suggestions in the forum, I did the following:
'sudo apt-get purge ebox-all'
'sudo apt-get purge slapd'
'sudo apt-get purge apache2'
'sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop'
'sudo apt-get autoremove'
Once I rebooted, I reloaded ebox using the 'sudo apt-get install ebox' command, and then reloaded my Gnome desktop on the server without any of the "suggested installation components." This resulted in a perfectly operating server, perfectly operating ebox system, and smooth set of updates.
I'll be trying out the SAMBA shares later this evening. Many thanks to all for the suggestions!

Thank you for the report. I followed you sequence and had no success.
I did see some error messages in /var/log/ebox/ebox.log though.
Just for the record here is what I did:
Remove all ebox, slapd, apache2 + "autoremove"
Note: I had _no_ packages installed with "desktop" in its name.
~# apt-get --purge remove libldap-2.4-2
~# apt-get --purge remove liborbit2 # just uninstalled because it comes from ebox repository
~# rm -rf /etc/ldap # there were old artefacts from slapd
~# rm -rf /var/lib/ebox-usercorner/ # there were old artefacts
<reboot>
~# aptitude install ebox
~# aptitude install ebox-usersandgroups
First access to https://.../ebox, go immediately to Ldap and toggle Master --> Slave.
Do NOT "Save changes"
Go to Module Status. Activate "Users and Groups"
/var/log/ebox/ebox.log says:
