Fedora directory users - May 2006 - fedora-ds-1.0.2-1 Server Group Administration Server Unable to Configure

Hi There,

This is a new install on FC5 - nothing imported. The problem is that in the
console, the Administration Server Icon is blank. There is no
"Configuration
Tab".
Also, until I created a new instance of the Directory Server, that icon was
blank also. It now appears in the console, but I am unable to open it. This
is hard to describe, but basically I can''t configure any of the server
attributes from the console.  A direct connection to the web page (ie
firefox http://localhost:19939) allows browsing and editing. The java admin
console appears to be somehow unuseable. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
BTW, when I startconsole and login:
 [Sun May 14 16:17:09 2006] [notice] Apache/2.2 configured -- resuming
normal operations
 [Sun May 14 16:17:48 2006] [notice] [client 127.0.0.1]
admserv_check_authz(): passing [/admin-serv/authenticate] to the userauth
handler

So that looks OK.

Thanx,

Chris

The console is not really usable with the java that''s included with 
FC5.  You will need to download and install either the Sun or IBM JRE.  
See http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:JavaOnFedoraCore and 
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Install_Guide#Java_is_required_for_the_console
for more information.

Thank you, the new java from Sun did the trick...
I just edited startconsole and changed java to point at
/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06/bin/java
Console works fine now.
