No i am not running it intentionally, I already googeled the 389 directory but i could not make sense of it.

Well, that package doesn't install automatically. You must have added an extra repository yourself, because it is not part of the standard distribution, and then selected that thing to install... At this point, I can not imagine what else have you installed or done to your system... I would consider reinstall system from scratch as the most sensible route.

If openSUSE does the same, I would try to remove those service and target files: /lib/systemd/system/dirsrv@.service /lib/systemd/system/dirsrv.target /etc/systemd/system/dirsrv.target.wants/ /etc/sysconfig/dirsrv.systemd Maybe that would allow the system to boot, or maybe not - I have no idea if something else is expecting that system to be running! This is like having a modern computerized car not starting, and try to solve it by removing pieces with a hacksaw. I have no idea what you have done to your system or why. Maybe when all that is left of the car are the wheels and frame it will run - by pushing it by hand. :-( -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
hahahah – what a nice metaphor – my suse system as a car and I as the user and raper with the hacksaw ;) Yes I am using linux now for about 4 years started as a bloody newbie with all that has to do with computer (I studied philosophy ;) ) and now i think i know a little bit of linux…It is more experience less knowledge ;) Anyway, yes it might be that i installed the ldap stuff when i was trying to run a sms deamon to control my cellphone via my computer but I did this weeks ago … And i also checked my zypper log if there have been changes in the last two days, but there have been no changes and I did not make any update…So it is still strange… Thanks anyway, I will try your procedure… Gesendet: Mittwoch, 23.

I have been handling that hacksaw at times. With very suboptimal results. Better start over :-)
Anyway, yes it might be that i installed the ldap stuff when i was trying to run a sms deamon to control my cellphone via my computer but I did this weeks ago … And i also checked my zypper log if there have been changes in the last two days, but there have been no changes and I did not make any update…So it is still strange…
SMS and ldap? I can not imagine using ldap as related to sms. :-? I'll tell you a secret... with my years of experience, I still do not really know how to setup ldap. I hate the thing. (By the way, you sent an email related to gammu mail list here. ;-) ) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

I do know how to set it up, or did once. Possibly no longer - traumatic auto-erase of memory. I too hate the thing. -- "I don't mind a parasite, I object to a cut-rate one" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Sounds like most people experience when using openldap. Give OpenDJ a try if you want an ldap server that's simple to setup and deploy, usually takes about 5 minutes. There's a package available in my home repo too. http://software.opensuse.org/package/opendj -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
