Hello to the list.

After a long time without looking to the ApacheDS list, I decided to upgrade my 9.1 version of the server to the 9.4. Unfortunately I got problems with admin password. I look to the archives of this list and saw there has been modifications on it.

My problem is this one :
Initially I had an installation process which took a template of the xml configuration file and which filled it with the values entered by the installation user. Then it launched a windows service process which encapsulates the start of the autonome server.
After that it populated the server with values I wanted.

I changed things to start with a temporary conf file containing default password "secret". Then I connected the admin with "secret" password, programatically changed the "userPassword" attribute to the user value, and programatically changed the conf file to contain the new value. But doing this, the server stops with an authentication failure and the service stops. I have tried a lot of sequences for those operations but nothing seems to work...

Is there a known sequence of things to do to keep alive the autonome server while changing pasword both in ldap backend and in conf file ?
Thanks,
Tony Blanchard
