Unable to determine enabled services from ldap.

[mclain]

I realize this has been on the forums before but I've tried all the solutions given and still not started.

here is hosts file

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
192.68.108.xx cs2.fstrf.org cs2

Ive went through steps on split dns and all test came back fine.

Ive run the fixperms command. All with no luck.

Any more ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

If you've read the forum threads on this topic and the wiki article you should know that you'll need to provide all the information from the 'Verify....' section of that article.

Why?

So would i. How about giving us details of when this happened? Is it a new install or an upgrade? What are the exact error messages you're seeing in the log files? Are all (any) the Zimbra services running? What changes were done on the Zimbra server (o/s upgrade or changes to Zimbra)? Please update your forum profile with the output of the following command (do not post the output in this thread):

zmcontrol -v

cat /etc/resolv.conf

Why? Just cause everywhere I read it said may fix.

No zimbra services are running. All I get is

Host cs2.fstrf.org
Starting ldap...Done.
Unable to determine enabled services from ldap.
Unable to determine enabled services. Cache is out of date or doesn't exist.

Not new or upgrade.

This error shows up over and over in zimbra.log Jan 25 10:20:01 cs2 postfix/sendmail[25462]: warning: the Postfix sendmail command must be installed without set-uid root file permissions

There are two problems shown in the output you've provided. The first on is (this is usually the cause of the problem) there is no MX record shown in the output you've provided. The second problem is that you're not actually using the correct command to display the output of the DNS records. The commands you're using "dig cs2.fstrf.org mx" is wrong (you're using the FQDN of the server not the domain name), it should be as follows (unless you're using a sub-domain for a specific reason?):

dig fstrf.org mx

If I use the correct domain name for the dig commands I get a different IP address than the one in your dig output. You either have a problem with your DNS configuration or you're using the the wrong command.

As this isn't a new install or an upgrade I guess I can assume it's been running for some time? If that's the case what precipitated this problem?

Here is the outpit for dig fstrf.org mx

It was working fine.

We are trying to set up a warm standby server. So I rysnced /opt/zimbra /opt/zimbra on the mirrored server. Stop LIVE server brought up mirrored. All is good. Exact copy of live. Stop mirror bring up live and I get this error. Doesnt make sense as not making any changes to the live server. Just ran the rsync to the mirrored server.

So made no changes but for some reason the rsync is causing the issue.

[phoenix]

Isn't this a scenario for a Disaster Recovery rather than a standby server?

[mclain]

Disaster recover that way would take a significant amount of time. We are attempting this route. Server Live sync - Zimbra :: Wiki. Aware its unsupported but have everything working obviously except for the fact cant figure out why after I run sync between the 2 servers the live server throughs an ldap error upon start up.

This way provides an almost instant recovery time to getting email back live.
