Q: Critical problem after update OS X Server 3.0,anyone can help me?


first of all,forgive me using the "critical problem".... corz I am totally crazy now...Before I update,OS X server 2.2 working on OS X 10.8,and everything works fine.

After I upgrade to OS X 10.9 Mavericks, the old server app shows "can not work". Ok.... I download the OS X Server 3.0 and upgrade with it.

After it,the server app going crazy....

 

Original Toggle On Services include:

Time Machine,VPN,wiki,Message,File sharing,Calendar,Address Book,Mail

DHCP,DNS,Open Directory

 

Now working ok Services include:

DHCP,DNS

 

Now Toggle On but got problems Services include:

Open Directory,File Sharing

 

Problem with service:

  • Open Directorory

     Toggle as on in server app,but seems my local network account was crash.

     any existing user login to server,the server ask them to change password,but the chage not worked. It was stuck on the "change password".When I directly changing the password in server app, its also no response.

     If I create a new accout,the mail adrees will not be auto fill,and when I click "Create", a error windows showed "existing connection is not authenticated: password change denied", and the server app go crash. Re open it , new account shows "not allowed" in the list.

  

  • Time Machine,Calendar,Address Book

     Can't Login.... seems because Open Directory

 

  • File Sharing

     Using a server local account was ok.Can not login as a "network account",if I using Open Directory account, it stucks on change password window.

 

  • Mail

     Just after I upgrade the server app , it shows "ON",but when I telnet port 110 or 25, no response. I guess maybe the devocot didn't Starting up. So I toggle it to off and on again, the status showing "stating...." and got no response...

 


I am totally crazy... seems the Open Directorory was crash,also the mail server was crash...

 

Can anybody help me solve these problem?

    Hi guys.

    First, I apologyze for my english: I'm italian and I'll do my best to describe the problem, thet I guess you already know.

    Since the upgrade to Maverick and relative server.app upgrade, even to 3.0.1, I got always the same error during network users creation:

    "Existing connecting is not authenticated:  password change denied".

    I tried hundreds times in every issued way, even the latest of 20/11/2013 by Lunchbox LP.

    NOTHING!!!

    NOTHING!!!

    NOTHING!!!

     

    Does somebody Knows if Apple is going to solve this and all the other server 3.0.x bugs (including L2TP) with a BIGFIX?

     

    Thank you.

     

    THERE'S ANOTHER THING....

    AFTER THIS LATEST Solution, + AND - BUTTONS ON NETWORK USERS PAN ARE OFF..

    Is this helpful to understand the main problem?

     

    Now I clone back the machine and I try again.... for the 10000000E000 time.....

     

    Thank you.

    Hello,

     

    i have exactly the same problems....

    The server is just as bad as his predecessor - Apple is not interested in business customers.

    This is my third Mavericks server and my 3rd big problem.

     

    - Delete and restore Open Directory
    - Reinstalling Open Directory

    - Reset the Server.app

     

    No way to the goal!

    I have played my backup from 10.8.5 back.

    Are there any other ideas?

     

    Thank you, good night...

    Had the same problems with the OD.

    After upgrading from OSX Server 10.8.5 to 10.9.3 OD authentication was not working.

    In the log I found : GSSAPI Error:  Miscellaneous failure (see text (Message stream modified).

    when I tried to log on as net (OD) user.

    Everything I found in this thread did not work for me.

    So I went back to 10.8 and archived the OD from 10.8.

    Upgraded again I did remove the migrated OD-Domain and after a restart I did reimport the

    10.8 OD-Domain.

    Success!

     

    Best regards Florian

    P.S: I guess the problem is the selfsigned crtificate that I was using.

    The certificate is replaced during the migration to match the new certifcate chain.

    The OD won't match to the new certificate.

    After reimpoting the old OD the new selfsinged was gone and the services certifcate was changed to a server fallback certificate.

     

    My best.

    I had the same error message, after I changed my machine name.  I went through some of the same frustrations as the previous posters, but the fix for me was easy.  I didn't have any accounts to back up, so all I had to do was:

     

    On the server:

    1. Delete the Open Directory server.

    2. Create a new one.

     

    On the clients:

    1. Delete the server connection.

    2. Add it back under the new name.


    If you're also an X server newbie, your experience may be this easy.

    Same problems here. New server build, not an upgrade. Worked fine until the last security update was applied last Saturday.

     

    Problems like these have made my life **** as I can't even develop a stable server solution around Apple's server software due to the constant changes.

    Same problem here:

     

    OSX: 10.9.5

    Server 3.2.2

     

    Didn't do any upgrades or updates... One day I can add users and reset password the other day I cannot... certificates are all valid.

    my users can not change passwords... always gives me this error:  in order to set the password of a user with an Open Directory Password, your own password type must be Open Directory.

     

    Thanks apple! for the poor job !

     

    Also tried changind password via command line: Error not authorized:

     

    Via ldap:

    passwd: DS error: eDSNotAuthorized

    <dscl_cmd> DS Error: -14484 (eDSNotAuthorized)

    ...

    any ideias ?

    Hi all,

     

    I don't know if this will help you guys but I had the same problem and in the end it came down to the certificate of the server was incorrectly setup. This had not been a problem until the update so you might want to check the server app and make sure the certificate is configured properly.

     

    Hope this helps someone.
