Question

I am following the App Dev Pack to configure the domino server. After I　tried to setup ldap configuration, then the following error message occured.

The server.kyr is kyring file using the make_certs.cmd and make_keying.cmd from the App Dev Pack.

Here is the error message when running.

Answer 1

Your error does not have anything to do with your changes in setup.

When you start the domino server, then it first starts the so called "Server Controller". This server controller is an executable (scontroller.exe under Windows), that listens on port 2050 for any Java remote console to connect.

The controller is configured in "dcontroller.ini" in your data directory.

You can check, if the controller runs using netstat in a command line:

netstat -ano |findstr 2050

will give you the following result, if the controller is running:

TCP    0.0.0.0:2050       0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       3836

or if it is configured to a specific IP address:

TCP    172.16.0.21:2050       0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       3836

To connect to the server using the Domino Server Console, it uses a file called "dconsole.ini" in the same directory as dcontroller.ini.

The dconsole.ini has an entry to point to controller called "LocalHost". It should point to the same IP / Hostname, that the controller listens to:

LocalHost=172.16.0.21:2050

This is usually the second line in that file. If it is missing: Add it and restart console.

Your error typically occurs if a server has more than one IP address / network card.
