--------------------------------------
Summary: Emergency Recovery when Server will not start
Key: DIRSERVER-2290
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2290
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: doc
Affects Versions: 2.0.0.AM25
Environment: debian, ubuntu flavours, and possibly other paltforms
Reporter: Brian Burch
This applies to mainly to the project distribution debian deb installation
package, but will be relevant to other installation choices too. The current
deb installation script starts apacheds server _before_ the administrator has a
chance to manually configure a partition. At startup the server creates all the
partitions defined in config.ldif, marks the file as migrated, and never refers
to it again.
If the admin has problems populating a new partition, it is possible that the
errors will cause the server to crash. This means Studio or ldapmodify will not
be able to bind to the directory to correct the error.
This Jira is for the relatively minor task of updating the project wiki to
describe how to return the server to a clean configuration, including the new
embryo partition, so that it can be started again.
