Adding frst user problem

[slybob]

Can anyone shed any light?

root@mail:~# /opt/open-xchange/sbin/createuser -A oxadmin -P "password" --username andrew_holway --displayname "Andrew Holway" --password usrpass --email andrew.holway@gmail.com --givenname Andrew --surname Holway --language en_US --timezone Europe/London --department Decryption --company "Bletchley Park"
Error:
 Connection refused to host: 127.0.0.1; nested exception is:
        java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused

Im also getting 503 when I try and access the GUI. I'm installing on ubuntu 6.06 on a openvz VE

Cheers,

Andy

The rmi admin daemon is not running.check that the admin daemon is started

[slybob]

daemon not running

hey,thanks for the reply,

Your right! It would seem that the daemon isnt running.

root@mail:~# /etc/init.d/open-xchange-admin start
Starting Open-Xchange Admin Daemon: open-xchange-admin.
root@mail:~# /etc/init.d/open-xchange-admin stop
Stopping Open-Xchange Admin Daemon: start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 27699: No such process
1 pids were not killed
No process in pidfile `/var/run/open-xchange-admin.pid' found running; none killed.
open-xchange-admin.

Something seems to be preventing it from running.. Im not getting any errors with my VE manager.

Im getting a 503 error(in german) on the front page if that sheds any light.

Do you checked the log files? Maybe there is something in the /var/log/messages or /var/log/open-xchange/... about it that could help to solve the problem

[slybob]

Why do I never remember to check the logs?

I think Im gonna start over on a new install, save scratching round for my cockups. This was my first OX compile so Im hardly expecting great things from it :-)

Cheers,

Andy

Well, you just missed the mysql.jar here.

Going over the instructions I realised I bodged a couple of things. I have started from scratch on a new VE and I've come to the same step of adding the first user.

mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar is present in /opt/open-xchange/lib/ (although in you howto you specified 3.1.13).

on the front page Im still getting error 503

I'll see if I can dig out 3.1.13 from somewhere

Cheers,

mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar is present in /opt/open-xchange/lib/ (although in you howto you specified 3.1.13).

3.1.14 works fine as well.
Did you create a link to 3.1.13 or did you change the build.xml?
I created a link to 3.1.13...

on the front page Im still getting error 503

After a fresh restart of the services, it takes a bit time the application is available.

[slybob]

I did neither

Thanks
does this mean I should rebuild? Or can I bodge it?

A rebuild is better :-)

Indeed, it was a great work OX did the last year

[slybob]

ah, problems problems

Okay, so it was working. I got to have a little play, wet my appetite etc etc,

503 error, I keep on getting this 503 error, I think its because of mod-jk. Im still running the standard Ubuntu install of it because I cant find a binary for apache2! the tomcat guys keep trying to get me to move the whole thing over to tomcat!? I did find some source at http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/ but the build instructions are missing??!!??

I still cant add my first user, below is the input and output of my attempt. Its rather odd because when I did get in the application I was ble to make notes and appointments etc etc but I expect this it thru a different mechanism.

This we had in the last post or did I miss something?

Check the last line of createuser again please, sorry for the inconvenience.
