Installation and Upgrades / Re: Backup/restore
« on: March 10, 2009, 10:47:22 pm »
if i do this shall i backup/restore as normal and after that get the "unstable" ldap import script.
where iis the parse script? I had a search but couldn't find on the forum
I then need to run that on the ldif i extract from the backup tar, right, after deleting the ldap directory. and i can test after resetting permissions etc.

maybe i should load up the old ebox installation, update it to the latest, then save a backup, and then follow javi's 7 steps on the diff in there? Would that sort me out?

well i changed the password line to read:
userPassword: ebox****96841436164
and repeated the same process but now i get a new error,
to be honest I'm not sure whether I have introduced these problems via this procedure, i might have had it earlier, as i didn't test directly before or after the restore, (and the reason i am moving vm is because i was also running fog [fogproject.org] in this machine which had it's own web interface which seemed to break only images on ebox but that's all- but i'm not sure whether i'd had this problem..) when i try and edit the user/group via eg https://192.168.8.2/ebox/UsersAndGroups/Groups, i get the listing fine but as soon as i click the pencil to edit the group I get: An internal error has ocurred. This is most probably a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs.
An internal error related to a template has occurred. This is a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs.
the /var/log/ebox/error.log shows that for groups
this error is:
[Sat Feb 28 18:12:52 2009] [error] [client 10.10.0.2] File does not exist: /usr/share/ebox/www/images/thead-b.png, referer: https://192.168.8.2/ebox/UsersAndGroups/Groups
and for users:
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/MailAliasLdap.pm line 291.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/MailAliasLdap.pm line 291.
creating a new user gives this error:

Hmmm.
<edit> given latest response I can see that maybe i'll need to re-run the restore officially due to version mismatches? should i do that and then maybe do a slightly different slapcat stripping out some windows client stuff? would that even be possible?

funilly enough i've actually been here before with openldap.. solution was to
sudo chown openldap.openldap /var/lib/ldap/*
now i'll be able to check if this was resolved when i pop into the office.
aha <edit> got your new reply.. will update password..
thanks!

the logs state:
Feb 28 16:52:29 brighton1 slapd[25622]: /etc/ldap/slapd.conf: line 98: rootdn is always granted unlimited privileges.
Feb 28 16:52:29 brighton1 slapd[25623]: hdb_db_open: database "dc=ebox": alock package is unstable.

Feb 28 16:52:29 brighton1 slapd[25623]: connections_destroy: nothing to destroy.
I did follow the above instructions after winscp'ing the ldif file into /root
Should I restore my backup i made after reinstalling ebox and restore the whole backup again?

Hi
when importing i did get the following warning(?)
/etc/ldap/slapd.conf: line 98: rootdn is always granted unlimited privileges.
and now when I check users or groups I get the following:
"An internal error has ocurred. This is most probably a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs"
..

Thanks, Javi
I just had a thought - since i've still got access to the old server (I just backup/restore to move into kvm on a proxmox host) is there a way to export/import this machine account info into the new server and save me trudging around the office giving a three finger salute to 30-odd PCs this weekend?
for example using some ldap tools mentioned upstream?

I have the same problem. 
i don't know if it's because i forgot to update ebox before running the backup, or if this bug still hasn't been repaired, but what it means is that I must rejoin all the pcs to the domain if i restore from backup on a new server.
What should be done, report as a bug?
