Problems after Restore

Hello

I have the problems, that the server works not correct after a restore:

After a restore from TimeMachine Web-Services and more didn't work right.
After "diskutil repairPermissions /" and the same with a boot from DVD (and working over DiskUtility, and repair the Permissions) the Server works not bad.

But
Push-Service can not start Error-Message in Server-Admin:

(Erro NIL RESPONEERR ( * -(NSCFDictionary setObject:forKey:): attemp to insert nil value (key: domain)))

In the logfile I found:

Jun 29 15:44:05 wib-srv01 servermgrd[62301]: servermgr_jabber[W]: detailed service status not available until network configuration completed
Jun 29 15:44:05 wib-srv01 servermgrd[62301]: Exception in doCommand for module servermgr_notification: * -[NSCFDictionary setObject:forKey:]: attempt to insert nil value (key: domain)
Jun 29 15:44:05 wib-srv01 servermgrd[62301]: --request was {\n command = setState;\n state = START;\n variant = withDetails;\n}

Also the Password Change over the wiki works nomore ...
If I try to change a user-Password I get:

Your request could not be completed. The password server may be unavailable.

in the Log I see:

Hi,

I am also seeing the same errors after a Time Machine restore.

Can log in to Wiki's without a problem, however Mail server and Password servers are unavailable if I try to log in to them via the wiki settings page, and on the wiki 'home page' both Mail Rules and Password sections do not ask for passwords when entered, and are basically blank.

Anyone have any ideas?

Awesome, an actual fix. It also lines up with other feature issues after Time Machine full restore

Upon restoring a Mac OS X Server from timemachine...run the following



sudo mkdir /Library/Logs/wikid
sudo mkdir /Library/Logs/EmailRules
sudo mkdir /Library/Logs/PasswordReset
sudo chown teamsserver:teamsserver /Library/Logs/wikid
sudo chown teamsserver:teamsserver /Library/Logs/EmailRules
sudo chown teamsserver:teamsserver /Library/Logs/PasswordReset

dikutil repairpermissions /

To rebuild the list of blogs and wikis, remove the file:
/Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/directoryIndex.db
back it up first incase)
