userdb fails after upgrade to 11iv3

[Scott Larocque_1]

Hello,

After upgrading from 11.23 to 11.31, I have the following error in rc.log:

Checking user database
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/S225userdb start":
----------------------------
userdbck: not allowed on a Trusted System
EXIT CODE: 2
"/sbin/rc2.d/S225userdb start" FAILED

How can I clean this error up?

Any help would be appreciated.

At the moment there is no solution for this. The only workaround is to disable this checking when server boot.

What would be the cleanest way to disable it? Don't see a switch in rc.config.d for it.

Just put on second line in script - exit 0

Hi Scott:

Look in '/sbin/init.d/userdb'. There should be a variable that (if not set to one) will disable this startup. I don't have an 11.31 system to examine. There should be a file in '/etc/rc.config.d/' that defines this variable. If truly not, then simply remove the 'rc2.d' symbolic link and its (hopefully) 'rc1.d' link too. This will prevent startup and shutdown respectively.

Regards!

Thanks Ivan, that did the trick.

James, There is nothing in the script that references rc.config.d.

Thanks for all the help,

Hi (again) Scott:

> James, There is nothing in the script that references rc.config.d.

There wouldn't be a direct reference to this directory; only a reference to a *variable* defined in a *file* in the *directory*.

You should read the manpages for 'rc' and 'rc.config' to understand the startup/shutdown paradigm:
