AccountProvider_Error_82 stopping everything!

NethServer release 7.4.1708 / Accounts Provider / Users

I have been playing with nethserver on an off for a few weeks. I kept getting the account provider 82 error when going to the users and groups config so today I have tried a few clean installs but to no result.

The most basic version I did was an interactive install with a really short domain name “locald” and setting the root password. After the intitial setup steps once logged into the server page I did the software updates, made the network IP fixed and then installed local active directory.

ad.local.com
WORKGROUP for the netbios as I need windows PC’s to join (I have tried leaving this as default but that didn’t help)
10.1.1.22 for the domain controller address.

The AD setup shows successfully installed but when when I go to set up users, it can’t, as it reports the AccountsProvider_Error_82.

I don’t know if it’s related but when I go to “Domain Accounts” in the Status area it says “Could not connect to accounts provider!”

I have searched google and this forum, the solution for this for another person was a disparity between the hardware clock and the server clock. I have checked that and they are the same.

I’m using a Thinkpad L530 laptop.

Please Help!

Hi @Mjbbus,

did you follow these steps for AD installation?

http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v7/accounts.html#samba-active-directory-local-provider-installation

You may try to uninstall/reinstall the Account Provider:

Hi yes, followed to the letter. Have also uninstalled a re-installed the Account Provider numerous times.

Is there any documentation or knowledge on what this error actually means?

No, ATM. Could you see any relevant error message in /var/log/messages?

Please, open a root shell and paste also the output of

config show sssd
config show nsdc
account-provider-test dump
/usr/libexec/nethserver/list-users >/dev/null; echo $?

I looked through every log file that looked like it could be relevant and couldn’t see anything unfortunately.

This should be bridge=br0 or similar. Probably there was a problem with the network bridge creation. Paste also the output of

 db networks show
 ip addr
 systemctl status nsdc

Please look in past log files /var/log/messages-*. Look up nethserver-dc-create-bridge: there can be useful information near that. Any ERROR or FAIL string?

Once we understand the cause of the problem you’ll need to uninstall/reinstall the AD local provider.

Well, I learned something new today, yesterday I ran the commands on the actual PC and typed the result into this. Today I found pUTTY and can do it from my laptop.

I read through the log from system build-registering the hardware, initial startup, then restarts, software updates and package installations. Everything was virtually perfecr, all success not fail except a few odd messages below (up to 12:58)

Then I think I hit the active directory install and lots of things seems to go wrong, that’s the sections below at 13:01. It’s not all that helpful though for me, I can see the result but it doesn’t seem to explain the cause.

today i started from scratch on a different machine, same result. so then i downloaded the iso image again and started with a fresh install disc. Same result, someone please help.

it seems like it has to be something to do with registering the server in the kerberos config.

Did you try different parameters? IP, domain name (and suffix…)

Are you running a VM?

http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v7/accounts.html#installing-on-a-virtual-machine

Thanks, yes I have tried multiple IP’s, multiple domains and .com.au as well as .com

I’m running on physical boxes not VM’s

I’m sorry I was on mobile and didn’t see it! :blush:

You cannot call your system “localhost”: it’s a big no! Nobody can contact a system with that name because it’s always resolved as 127.0.0.1

  • Remove the accounts provider
  • Change the host name FQDN like server1.locald.com
  • Configure AD local accounts provider

BTW here it was initially “localshost” :thinking: Was it a typo before using putty?

LEGEND! (get that I’m happy???).

Uninstalled the domain, changed the server name, reinstalled the domain and bang, users all working.

As a suggestion… the install defaults to localhost, maybe should default to something else?

One final question while I have your attention, I have set the shared drives as browseable, used the windows WORKGROUP for netbios and I can map a network drive manually from my windows machines to the share using the IP address but they won’t resolve the name and the server is not visible in the network area on windows machines. Is there an easy / typical fix for this?

cheers

I’m glad it works! Please mark this topic solved.

You’re right, it is the CentOS default, which is not really good for AD. We usually strive to keep upstream defaults. I’d like to enhance the host name checking in the FQDN or AD set up page.

Yes, you always get attention from the whole community :blush: Please open a new topic for your new question and I’m sure you’ll get an answer quickly!
