Q: calendar server switches off

Hi! On a MacMini Server, System 10.9.5 the calendar server switches off itself. Until now I can't say why and when exactly, trying to find out. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi again,

what we have done:

We took from a TimeMachine Backup a few hours earlier. Then, calendars worked fine again. Unfortunately, OD didn't work correct anymore. (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7160594)

Nothing found that would be relevant…
I made a restart of the server, still observing it.

Same with me. Looking for open ports using lsof -i -P | grep -i "listen" reveals that server 5.0 is not listening on standard port.

Had to go back to server 4.x and restore /Libaray/Server/Calendar... from Time Machine backup.
The other services (mail, cache) worked after rollback without restoring data from Time Machine backup.
Search the internet for "Restoring Open Directory from Time Machine rsync" for a solution to restore OD data from Time Machine backup.

Watch out: After restoring Server 4.x the automatic update installed 5.x again. I think this never happened with the server app before. Automatic app update needs to be disabled in system preferences...
