Hi Mathijs, I was able to reproduce your problem. We already have a similar bug report in our issue tracker and I added your problem to it: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1175
Thanks for the report and sorry for the inconvenience. I hope you just crashed a test system, not your work system ;-) Regards, Stefan Groot, Mathijs de (IDT Competence Java) schrieb: > Last 3 mails were unable to be delivered. > > [screenshot left out, last 3mails were unable to be delivered with this > screenshot] > > > > [ApacheDS] [Release] corrupting Windows when uninstalling! > > Dear ApacheDS community / developers, > > I'm currently looking into the LDAP services and possibilities trying to > find a suitable product for your current project. > > But I'm really not amused with the result of the de-installation of > ApacheDS 1.5.2! > > I was told to look into ApacheDS because it's a preferred product and a > well know name for a open source LDAP directory service. > > First I'll explain the problem I encountered with uninstalling ApacheDS, > then my system details followed by a summary of my project context. > > I was trying some things with ApacheDS, installing the 1.5.2 version and > the ApacheDS studio 1.1.0 > I encountered many problems with learning about LDAP and the ApacheDS > server, mainly because the current basic guide does not math with the > configuration files of ApacheDS 1.5.2... > So I decided to install ApacheDS 1.0.2, this version was better in line > with the guides provided online, so this went so far so good. > With the great organization structure I have to implement in an LDAP > server, where none of the different branches have any authorization of > relationship with other branches is decided to install a second ApacheDS > server 1.5.2 with a other path in the program file folder, hereby I was > trying to create and second ApacheDS Windows service where I could > implement a second organizational structure. > (It didn't work this way unfortunately ) > > When I wasn't pleased with the current configuration and content of the > ApacheDS servers I decided to uninstall and reinstall the instances. > > But when this was completed, Windows was corrupted and wasn't able to > boot anymore. > I was basically unable to use my system anymore! > > I did some research into this problem, with the result that I had to > reinstalling two systems, but found the problem. > > Step by step: > > - Installing ApacheDS 1.0.2 > > - Installing ApacheDS studio 1.1.0 > > - Installing ApacheDS 1.5.2 > > - Installing ApacheDS 1.5.2 with a different program file > folder name > > - Uninstalling the ApacheDS 1.5.2 server with the different > folder name > > - Deleting this folder from the program files folder > > - Uninstalling the first ApacheDS 1.5.2 server > > > > Result: > > - Windows unable to boot > > - ntldr missing (NT Loader, this will run after the Master Boot > Record to locate your operating system) > > - ntdetect.com missing > > this is based on the test I've run the past days (I don't draw quick > conclusions) > and see the following screenshot: > [screenshot left out, last 3mails were unable to be delivered with this > screenshot] > > > > Current System details: > > Windows XP Pro, service pack 2 > Intel Core 2 Duo 6600 @ 2.40GHz, 3 GB RAM memory. > All Basic programs are installed like Microsoft Office, virus scan and > other normal products. > No other servers or services are currently installed. > > > > Summary of my project details > > Im working for Logica (www.logica.com) based in the Netherlands.
