Topic: Can't access server-manager

[bpivk]

Well i wasn't refering to user-password. Did you check the FAQ. It has a howto for changing admin password.

Edit: After another look at your problem...
Post this problem to the bugtracker because (correct me if i'm wrong) you can't use the server manager or SSH but you can change admin password on the user password page.

Am i correct? If i am post a bug.

bpivk,

Thanks again for the reply. So you want me to change the admin password, OK?

Just to let you know. I can log into the server console at the server. I sure there's a reason you want me to do this. I will.

Let me know otherwise.

Thanks

[Thu Mar 29 19:29:46 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] syntax error at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/CGI/FormMagick/HTML.pm line 257, near "joif "<br>"", referer: h

That looks like a corrupted file to me - that should be "join "<br>". What does:

rpm -V perl-CGI-FormMagick

say?

Are you sure that your RAM is good?

Hi Mark,

I don't know what to suggest next. Your machine is behaving much differently than mine at this point.

I have only been using SME server for a week, and am busy going over the documentation and getting familiar with it.

If I learn or see anything relevant, will let you know.

Regards,

Hans

The password is ok and SHOULD NOT BE RESET if you can log into console.
Do what Charlie asks and answer his question.

CharlieBrady,

Checked the memory. OK.

Ran:
 rpm -V perl-cgi-FormMagick

Result:
 Package FormMagick is not installed.

Thanks SME people for all the replies.

CharlieBrady,

How did you check the memory?

You should also check /var/log/messages.* for disk read or write errors.

Ran:
 rpm -V perl-cgi-FormMagick

Result:
 Package FormMagick is not installed.

Check your typing - you shouldn't be asking for it to verify FormMagick, you should be asking it to verify perl-CGI-FormMagick.

CharlieBrady,

Thank you for the reply,

I used the dell diagnostic disk ... it's a dell server.

I type what you stated in your message. Is there a space between "rpm -V" or no space "rpm-V". I did it with a space.

I will try the log as you suggested. Do I just put" /var/log/messages.* " at the linux prompt?

Thanks,

You did not type what Charlie asked you to.

You state above that you typed:
rpm -V perl-cgi-FormMagick

You need:
rpm -V perl-CGI-FormMagick

Mind the caps on CGI (not cgi) and there is a space between rpm{space}-V

[mwasi]

pfloor,

OK. Thanks.

I ran:
rpm -V perl-CGI-FormMagick

Result:
#

I just recieved the prompt.

I ran:
/var/log/messages.*

Result:
bash: /var/log/messages.20070129011202 permission denied.

Thank you for the replies guys! I have to learn this linux stuff. Maybe I'll buy Linux for Dummies for some holiday reading....

Hi SME Server People,

Any other suggestions at this point?

At this point I'm able to access the https://xxx.xxx.x.xxx/server-manager however however it doesn't allow me to log-in. It just keeps asking me for user name and password. I'm able to change the user password, that doesn't help. I have no problems accessing my folders etc. I just can't log in to the /server-manager .

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
-Mark

Just to check...
You do login as admin and your password not just a user?

[mwasi]

Hi bpivk,

Thanks for the reply.

I just doubled checked. No I can't log into server-manager with user admin and password.


Thanks,
-Mark

[bpivk]

Can you log into console?

[mwasi]

Yes, I can log into the console at the server.

At the server I tried to used text browser to log into the sever-manager however it doesn't allow me.

In either sernerio I get the login screen, enter my username and password. If I enter the correct username/password a windows dialog window pops up and asks for it again. If I put an incorrect username/password it gives me an invalid username/password message and asks to ender again.

Thanks for the reply.
