CIFS server failed to dermine local domain/workgroup - linux

[rbousquet]

Hi,

I can't seem to finish the installation correctly. I have a problem with the CIFS server.

error log follows:

11:23:25,395 ERROR [alfresco.smb.protocol] CIFS server configuration error, Failed to determine local domain/workgroup
org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: Failed to determine local domain/workgroup
        at org.alfresco.filesys.server.config.ServerConfiguration.getLocalDomainName(ServerConfiguration.java:2061)
        at org.alfresco.filesys.server.config.ServerConfiguration.processCIFSServerConfig(ServerConfiguration.java:536)
        at org.alfresco.filesys.server.config.ServerConfiguration.init(ServerConfiguration.java:379)

My config is:
- Linux RedHat Fedora Core 2

My /etc/hosts file is very simple and might be the cause of the problem (always is 😞

127.0.0.1       localhost       localhost


Thank you for your help.

Hi

I would advise setting the hostname and domain name on any unix machine and having the matching entries in /etc/hosts

Is there some reason why you are not doing this?

From memory, the domainname command will let you set the nisdomain name, although I may be confusing solaris and linux.
This is quite likely to be your issue if it is not set.
