eDir does not start

Related to one host in a ring (three hosts)

This is the only output to ndsmanage startall

pre_ndsd_start_factory[3458]: 6469+0 records in
pre_ndsd_start_factory[3458]: 6469+0 records out
pre_ndsd_start_factory[3458]: 26497024 bytes (26 MB, 25 MiB) copied, 0.00736593 s, 3.6 GB/s
ndsdwrapper[3460]: /opt/novell/eDirectory/sbin/ndsdwrapper: line 12: NDSHOME/opt/novell/eDirectory/sbin/ndsd: No such file or directory
systemd[1]: ndsd.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=127/n/a

The file /opt/novell/eDirectory/sbin/ndsdwrapper is the same as on other hosts.

/opt/novell/eDirectory/sbin/ndsd is available and executeable.

The issue starts after a upgrade to 23.4. But the upgrade was w/o problems.

I found that the rfl files are missing and let them ignore. (via env_custom)

I found that the certificates for this server are missing in eDir (via iManager) but it looks like they can not created until the eDir is running.

At the other hosts eDir is up and running.

Any hints?

    You are using a custom environment. Probably you have a wrong setting in your environment. Your environment has to be such, that $sbindir points to /opt/novell/eDirectory/sbin . In your case $sbindir points to NDSHOME/opt/novell/eDirectory/sbin, which of course does not exist. And as NDSHOME is interpreted as a real path and not a variable, it is probably net set up as a variable.

    This occur after a OES upgrade ...

    I do not believe that the environment has changed into a custom env. during the upgrade.

    I removed this server from the ring and recreate it.

    As you wrote in your initial post you created an env_custom file. Probably you did not copy the contents of the env file to your env_custom file before adding the entry "NDSD_IGNORE_RFL=Y"  to this file. If you fail to do this most of the environment is not set or not set correctly, so that ndsd is for sure unable to start.
