ConsoleOne Can't Access the Domain Database

Problem:  You run ConsoleOne® but cannot access the domain where you need to make changes.

Possible Cause:  You have not yet authenticated to an eDirectoryTM tree. On Linux, ConsoleOne does not authenticate automatically, nor does it automatically connect to the same domain database you were connected to during the previous ConsoleOne session.

Action:  Manually authenticate and connect.

  1. In ConsoleOne, select NDS, then click File > Authenticate.

  2. Provide the required authentication information, then click Login.

  3. Browse to and select a domain, then click Tools > GroupWise System Operations > Connect.

Possible Cause:  You are not connected to the correct domain.

Action:  Make sure you are connected to the correct domain. See "Connecting to a Domain" in "Domains" in the GroupWise 6.5 Administration Guide.

Possible Cause:  You don't have sufficient rights.

Action:  Make sure you started ConsoleOne with sufficient rights to modify the Domain object.

Possible Cause:  The domain database (wpdomain.db) is damaged.

Action:  Rebuild the domain database. See "Rebuilding Domain or Post Office Databases" in "Databases" in the GroupWise 6.5 Administration Guide.

Possible Cause:  The domain database (wpdomain.db) is locked. Because ConsoleOne is designed to allow multiple administrators to access databases simultaneously, this theoretically should not happen, but occasionally it does.

Action:  Exit ConsoleOne and restart.
