AFP: File Sharing Error: Error Reading Settings Mountain Lion

i have recently upgraded to Server 2.1.1 and now, none of my users can log into their account.


The errors I am getting are:


Multiple errors occured on the server while processing commands.


Going to the server log I get this:


Oct 4 10:27:03 macserver.sfhigh.net AppleFileServer[1063] <Info>: TCP Listener returned error on accept

Oct 4 10:27:08 macserver.sfhigh.net AppleFileServer[1063] <Info>: TCP Listener returned error on accept

Oct 4 11:11:00 macserver.sfhigh.net AppleFileServer[2059] <Info>: TCP Listener returned error on accept


and sometimes after switching the service Off and then On I get


The error occurred while processing a command of type 'getConnectedUsers' in plug-in 'servermgr_afp'.


I have tried stopping and starting the service via Terminal, but nothing!


HELP!


Thanks

I had this too, but was able to fix it by deleting /Library/Preferences/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist and restarting the server.


However, this solution also seems to reset the maxConnections to 10 users, so you will also need to reset this. The command to do this, in the Terminal, is:


sudo serveradmin stop afp

sudo serveradmin settings afp:maxConnections = -1

sudo serveradmin start afp


Hope this helps.


This solution worked for me. 10.8.5

Thanks
