[Fedora-directory-users] Re: Recurring NSS initialization failure...

[Saied W. Andalib]

After the clean re-installation, I tried to do the setup, but, it fails
with the same error:



[slapd-dirs]: [26/Jun/2007:09:03:00 -0500] - SSL alert: Security
Initialization: NSS initialization failed (Netscape Portable Runtime
error -8174 - security library: bad database.):
path: /opt/fedora-ds/alias/, certdb prefix: slapd-dirs-, keydb prefix:
slapd-dirs-. [slapd-dirs]: [26/Jun/2007:09:03:00 -0500] - ERROR: NSS
Initialization Failed. error:[26/Jun/2007:09:03:00 -0500] - ERROR: NSS
Initialization\nFailed. system_errno:2



Where it hangs. The alias directory has only one entry:



[root at dirs fedora-ds]# ls -al alias/
total 268
drwxr-xr-x  2 fedora-ds fedora-ds   4096 Jun 13 12:01 .
drwxr-xr-x 15 root      root        4096 Jun 26 09:03 ..
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root      root      247376 Nov  8  2006 libnssckbi.so



It didn't create the other cert and key files under alias directory.
Also, the admin-serv/config directory is empty!

That NSS Initialization failure (-8174) with "bad database" error
prevents the setup from doing anything. Since, this is a fresh
installation, I think the bad database error is probably somewhere
outside the /opt/fedora-ds tree...! I'm only guessing at this point;-)
Any ideas as to where to look for any clues?!!!!
