Directory and Authentication / (Solved) Setup As additional domain controller fails
« on: February 02, 2016, 11:10:58 pm »
I figured this out by myself finally. I'm adding it here since I couldn't find any help when searching for it.
Error is " The following modules failed while saving their changes. Their state is unknown: samba"
In the logs ( /var/log/zentyal/zentyal.log ) the relevant error is "Error: Command output: Usage: samba-tool domain join..."
In this case it was caused by the way the script reads the domain admin password. It ends up not putting quotes around it, so any password containing spaces or possibly other 'special' characters will cause the setup script to fail. Changing the password to something without special chars will fix this error.
If your password isn't the problem, look for other information that may be passed to the samba-tool command without proper quoting (server names, domain, other settings, etc. ).
