Hey, all…
I posted this last week on Apple’s OS X Server discussions, but haven’t gotten a reply. Thought I’d give AFP548 a try, so I apologize for the duplicate postings.
Two weeks ago, LDAP took a nose dive on us. I backed up the users’ data to a spare drive, wiped the system drive clean and re-installed. Due to the fact that this school still uses Mac Manager (cringe cringe), I first went from OS X Server 10.3 to 10.4. Ran all updates, pulled all home dirs back, re-imported all users. All was well in the jungle.
However, I’m now getting reports that iWeb will not let the kids publish to a folder in their home directories. They can open iWeb just fine, but when they publish to a local folder, iWeb crashes. This happens for both old users and users created after the server rebuild. Here’s what I get in the log when iWeb crashes…
—-
iWeb[475] SFUTemporaryDirectory: Error -5000 from FSFindFolder(kTemporaryFolderType) for the user’s home directory volume
iWeb[475] SFUTemporaryDirectory: Could not find ANY volume temporary folder.
—-
The odd things are that:
A – Students have used these same Macs before to create their pages
B – Not all of the Macs seem to be affected by this issue.
C – Deleting/readding the LDAP entry in Directory Access does not appear to solve this.
D – Nor do reboots.
E – Local accounts are not problematic.
F – Wiping out iWeb preferences and the iWeb folder in ~/Library/Caches/ does not help, either.
Any ideas, people?
TIA
