hi Gabriele,

i'm not sure if it's the same problem or not, but i've ran into this
error before:

Can't start Admin server [/opt/fedora-ds/start-admin > /tmp/filepYDgQG
2>&1] (error: No such file or directory)INFO Finished with setup,
logfile is setup/setup.log

i encountered this error by having a system configured to use LDAP for
uid/group lookups (see /etc/nsswitch.conf) and the LDAP server being
down.  when the server was down the install would display the above
error, and the admin server wouldn't start.  once i configured the
nsswitch.conf to look at local files and not LDAP, the install went
smoothly.

i also found that if i installed using the default install option (2),
it never seemed to install right.  but, if i installed using the express
install (1) it worked fine.

you could try editing the start-admin script and adding "strace" right
before the command that starts the admin server.  that may lend some
details where the process is dying.

ihth,
nb
