Server Admin is hanging when launched on my desktop mac to remote admin my Xserve. It previously worked OK, Workgroup Manager works OK and the Admin Tools (WGM, SA) work on another desktop mac. I recently re-installed OSX.3.7 and my apps but Server Admin is hanging when launched at the point where it should hook-up to the Xserve.
system.log in console reports …
Jan 28 16:49:57 localhost /Applications/Server/Server Admin.app/Contents/MacOS/Server Admin: unable to load “null” client plugin at /Applications/Server/Server Admin.app/Contents/PlugIns/.DS_Store
I’m not sure what .plist files/caches I could try dumping to clear this ? I can find the plug in folder in Server Admin Contents but I’ve no idea about ‘null’ client or how to locate /.DS_Store ?
ALSO
I have iPhoto stuck ‘Loading Pictures…’ when launched. It only does this with student’s network home accounts, not local accounts. I have rebuilt the library, which results in a crash. I have moved the thumb32, thumb64 files. No joy. I need to know if I can cure this problem following advice in these threads or if it’s more difficult because of the network homes.
any pointers welcome
cheers
