[Casper] Searchable FAQ or Discussion?

[Ernst, Craig S.]

Hi Ron,

I have an Xserve installed as an advanced server, since it does more than one thing. Bound to Active Directory.

You had to do a separate install of TomCat, or an upgrade? The JSS Setup Utility pretty much has taken care of everything, and in terms of the install portion I've not seen a problem in a long time, and I've reloaded it a few times moving things around and what not. It appears part of the setup script may have no completed properly for the database.

I would go back into the JSS Setup Util first, click Uninstall JSS, check Drop Database, click uninstall, and then try install the database again. Or you could check all those options, wipe out the JSS, and start over. Have you tried this already?

Otherwise, is this a machine you can start over on, and see if the same thing happens?

The support folks can be very helpful as well, unfortunately it's a holiday weekend.

Is it part of an open directory or stand alone?  How did you set up 10.5 server?  Basic, advanced, or whatever option you used.

I am running the most up to date JSS and have 10.5 but my server is stand alone and not part of the Directory, and it works great.

Thanks for the link Nathaniel and the welcome Thomas.

The error I am seeing specifically after installing 6.014 (the latest
Tomcat update) is this:

Error looking up jss_settings: java.sql.SQLException: Column
'smtp_is_secure' not found.

That is placed above the login window in my web admin using FIrefox,
Safari and Opera (so it doesn't appear to be a browser specific
error).  When I go to my Server Admin utility and select the MySQL
tab, it shows no errors in the log or any settings that can be changed
regarding smtp security.

Sorry if this is an issue that is simple and common knowledge, but I
really am a new server admin with little experience with Leopard Server.
