Novell Documentation: ZENworks for Servers 3.0.2 - 817: An internal error occurred while creating rights for the SCANDIR directory on the server server

817: An internal error occurred while creating rights for the SCANDIR directory on the server server_name

Source: ZENworks for Servers; Server Inventory installation on NetWare servers

Severity: Critical

Explanation: The installation program assigns the [Root] as a trustee of the SCANDIR directory with Create, Erase, and Write rights. This error occurs if the installation program is unable to assign these rights to SCANDIR.

Action: Ensure that you have logged in to the server as an administrator or with the equivalent administrator rights. See Installation User Rights Requirements.

Action: Reinstall ZfS 3 Server Inventory. See Reinstalling Server Inventory on NetWare and Windows Servers.

Action: If the problem persists, contact Novell Technical Services.
