I'm playing around on a development server trying to get familiar with the process of standing up a new LSF9 environment prior to going to the upgrade class in a couple of weeks.
I have ADAM installed on my server. When I installed ADAM, I just used the network credentials of the logged in user ("lawson") and during the installation. I created an application data area in my respository for Lawson's metadeta called "o=Lawson,c=US".
I'm now running the installer for the Lawson Core Technology and am stuck on the "Configuring Resource Management" screen. It is telling me to enter the "DN of an LDAP administrator user" and it seems I have to enter a full DN.
I don't know what I am to enter here. I'm getting an error message saying that 'dn is expected'. Do I need to specify the DN of the lawson domain user ID? I have not tried to synchronize my ADAM instance with my domain at all.
Does this mean that the install is validating a domain user ID even though the Lawson metadata is residing in ADAM on the local server?
Thanks in advance.
In Ldap nomenclature the distinguished name or "dn" refers to the whole name such as
"cn=userId, dc=myenviroment, dc=blah, dc=net"
We had an installer from Lawson do this for us. Did you have to designate a "ldap adminstrator" or user Id when installing ADAM?
Thanks for your response TrueBlue.
When I installed LDAP, it was installed under the credentials of the person that was logged into the machine. I was not given the option to actually setup a local LDAP administrator. The only option I had as far as setup goes was to create a respository for application data. I named that 'o=Lawson,c=US'.
The local LDAP respository has not been bound to any other AD repository nor have I attempted to syncronize it with my domain. So based on my understanding, it is a stand-along LDAP instance.
Any suggestions? Anyone?
I have this in my notes from the LSF9 class
Info comes from $LAWDIR/system/install.cfg
BaseDN is parameter RMPARENTDN
(in the lsf9 class we used o=env,ou=lusand,o=lawson
USERDN is parameter CN = root
LDAPPASSWORD parameter (ls9 class used ldap!4evah1.)
Hope this helps
