Problems adding a server...

Postby rex007can » Fri Nov 10, 2006 1:04 pm

Yeah I know...
Again.

I'm adding a third server. I have to talking two eachother just fine except for a minor clitch here and there.

Now i'm adding a third one. But sync isn't working.

The routes are all identical to the ones on the other server that works.
Telnet to 25 works anywhichway.
And I can see SOME action in the Audit file. But the communication doesn't complete.
Server 1 and 2 communicate just fine.
But server 3 sends
subject DIRECTORY SYNCHRONIZATION - REQUEST_Updates

Then immediately, server 1 replies
subject DIRECTORY SYNCHRONIZATION - REPLY_Reload

But that reply doesn't seem to ever reach server 3
Nothing happens.

I've quintupled check everything on both servers.
restarted services a bunch of times.
Disabled all the firewalls etc etc.

Done. That's where I got how to view the sync requests going back and forth.

Is there a command to force a sync request to happen now?
Waiting for requests to happen to see if a change did anything just takes too long.

The document that links from the dirsync one ( http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?title=HowTos/AddingAScalixServer ) gives you more information.

To force a sync, you can stop the dirsyc process on the importing server and remove a file /var/opt/scalix/ds/om_state if it exists. Restart dirsync and, if you've got DS_CUST_SEND_REQ_NOW=TRUE in general.cfg, the dirsync request will be sent as soon as you restart.

Cheers

I believe (though not sure), a sync will occur when dirsync is first started.

omoff -d 0 dirsync
omon dirsync

I think ommodds would allow you to change the sync interval to something really low while you're testing. The man page is excellent, and should get you what you need.

This is my problem

Postby rex007can » Fri Nov 10, 2006 3:15 pm

So my problem is.
Server 2 sends a sync request
Server 1 returns a sync reload

And the reload gets blocked for a reason I cant figure out.

It looks like you're using a different name for the server than is actually defined. Please read the section on CNAMEs that I wrote in the Adding A Server wiki page.

Seems like you were right.

Thanks!
