OSX Server: invisible folder

Hello

For several days I have a strange problem: my shared folder is invisible, but the content is accessible from my network. This folder is located on the main hard drive and does not appear in the FINDER, at the same time, I can find content by using the search tool. Red blood cells found with the projector I can browse the content on the server, but the folder still not appear when I open a new Finder window.

At the same time and I don't know if it's related, my computer have huge slowdowns when you browse the content in SMB mode, whereas it works very well in the AFP.

My system is an update Yosemite + server running on Mac Mini.

I don't know if the upgrade to El Capitan, will correct this.

Thanks for your help.

Tom

A few things that can make the hidden folder include starting with one. and by setting the hidden flag.  If you started with one, then rename it.  If it is marked as hidden, you can use the command chflags to removed the hidden flag.

  • Updated OSX Server problems

    I have OSX Server 5.04.  The App Store has said there is a free update to 5.1.5 However, the App Store is not updated my server after pressing the upgrade button.  The little circle turns just in the upper left corner of the App Store next to the right arrow.  How can I get this upgrade?  There is no option to purchase, only set to level.

    5.1.5 Server version only works with OS X 10.11.4 and above.

  • OSX Server caching does not work after update

    It was low on my priority list, but the OSX Server that we run in the House for the caching seems to have stopped caching; from what I remember, it was related to the update software to 10.11.4 of what it was before, and server software everything that has been installed to 5.1. Updates both to the latest versions now have not helped. It of kind of frustrating, but all he puts in cache are now asking that makes for itself. No customer request is visible. It worked before.

    There seems to be no useful diagnostic that I can find to establish why the hell it suddenly does not work.

    Platform: Mac Mini, "the end of 2014", bought this year. OSX currently on 10.11.5; 5.1.5 Server

    Network configuration: IP public addresses multiple; several subnets.

    Clients do not use the same IP address as a server.

    Full assignment of the IP of the site listed in _aaplcache._tcp TXT DNS records (plural - because I did it for the DNS records for each subdomain DNS LAN client) using the type prs; DNS is on Windows Server 2012R2. Any length of characters, because they were not specified during the installation of OSX Server cached the required DNS records.

    No firewall is between the server and clients on the local network (only a L3 switch), but obviously, if the customer traffic leaves our network, it passes through a firewall. No change to the rule group since it worked finally.

    The Mac Mini has an interface (with IP address and corresponding DNS record) in each subnet of the client (using virtual LANs), but it seems to register with the Apple servers using its main wired LAN IP (which can reach customers) with the Apple servers.

    Mac Mini connects via gigabit ethernet.

    Wireless connectivity is through a mix of HP MSM and Ubiquiti access points; no system seems to result in customer traffic.

    My understanding of the protocols involved are something along these lines.

    -OSX server registers with Apple, using its normal connection; transmits the local LAN IP address for the cache clients to use; can pass TXT DNS records to help "seed" of customers, or can use the parameter entry in the cache server configuration.

    -Customers use the TXT DNS record to inform the global servers of Apple that they need the IP address of the server cache.

    -Apple returns the local LAN IP address.

    -The customer is for the server cache.

    -Profit.

    I certainly see the first happening party - the Debug.log show apparently successful registration; the cache in the applet Server service is green - but no client request seems to happen.

    Obscured address IP addresses are correct.

    Things are green and just seem to.

    Looks like he should be happy.

    IPs are correct and correspond to the DNS records.

    Help! What other steps can I take to diagnose - and trouble - this problem? The Apple Help documentation is not really very useful (I understand what he says), but he doesn't really give sysadmin level overview of what to do when he's not "just works".

    Thanks in advance for all understand how to debug properly and fix this.

    .. .clients can and collect software on the internet (that we want to avoid as much as possible).

    Amount of updated data in cache is so small that I did it (reset button) in the case which has been randomly a question. No joy. Was previously more than 300 GB in size, across many types of content.

    If it is not clear, the clients and servers using NAT, but different IP are used, depending on the subnet they come. He previously worked.

    Mounted a my WD-MyCloud-SIN AFP share to the TM server on OSX Server (latest version). Unfortunately, the disc shows up with no KB for backup and even if I choose this server/sharing, backup TM does end with mistake almost immediately.

  • Move the "Data Service" volume ZFS on OSX Server

    Hi all
    I would like to move all the data service to a ZFS volume on a Mavericks OSX Server. This option can be found here:
    Server.app-> your server-> settings
    and is called "Data Service". As someone has already done this? It works or what I have to do a manual config, whenever the server restarts?

    Hi all

    So I'll answer my own question.  The answer is no, in fact, the app Server does not detect even the zfs volume.  I also try to cheat and to synchronize the/Library/Server volume ZFS and softlink then the original file to the copy of the zfs volume, but App Server would no longer work.

    Then Mac OS x still don't like ZFS much.

    I reformatted the drive with appleRAID, and then I could move everything using the button in the application.  I noticed that this original file is still there.  If it's really just an arrangement written somewhere.  Anyone know where this parameter is written?  Maybe I could get data on the ZFS drive sync and write this setting by hand.

  • To authenticate with Kerberos for TimeMachine on OSX Server

    Hello

    Someone has an idea, how I can use Kerberos to authenticate with the TimeMachine service hosted by a server OSX?

    We use Mac clients in an Active Directory environment. Rules of procedure requires users to change their password after a few weeks. The problem: advertising knows the password, so the OSX Server knows the password, but the customers still have the old password stored in the keychain. So they try to connect to the service time machine with the old and evil, and that powers won't work. With Kerberos, this could be resolved.

    Any ideas?

    We use Mac OS X on the clients and server OSX 5.0.15 10.11.2

    Thank you!

    How to set up Time Machine?  System preferences or via a Configuration profile?  I'm guessing the system preferences.

    Try this command on one of your customers:

    tmutil destinationinfo

    If the value of the URL looks like this:

    AFP://user@host._afpovertcp._tcp.local./TM_Staff/

    Then you connect using Hello and so you're outside the Kerberos realm.  You can try to change the destination of a fully qualified host name or use configuration profiles.  What is the server bound to AD?

  • Photoshop, OSX Server - write access has been failed.

    Hello

    CC of Photoshop (and previous versions) cannot save/overwrite the files on my OSX Server. I think it is a matter of Photoshop because other applications may crash, such as InDesign and Microsoft Word.


    Here are the details of the error, my desktop computer with Photoshop CC installed and the server.

    Here's what myself a Brett from Adobe determined after a phone call and try a number of different things, and I will describe my methods to because that "the problem and solve it."

    I normally open a window of finder, find my iMac in the list on the left side of the finder window and select it, and then mount the external drive on my Macbook Pro Thunderbolt desk. I worked this way for years and never had a problem.

    My understanding is that when I connect to iMac remote in this way, the connection method is a small business and this is what causes the problem.

    My new method until the problem is solved is the following:

    I now use the command 'K' to open the dialog window "Connect to Server" and enter the IP address of the iMac as follows: afp://192.168.1.22 for example. If I now connect via AFP instead of SMB.

    I can now open a remote file to Photoshop, edit and save without problems.

    I hope it will work for you too, let me know how you go.

  • Accident to install OSX Server VM

    I tried to build a virtual machine to test installing the developer dmg to OSX Server. However, after that it's the start for a while, the VM kernel panic (before arriving at the installation of the user interface). I tried 32 and 64-bit VMs in Fusio 2.0.6 (I have 3). Someone has seen something similar?

    Also, I tried to boot in verbose mode, but hold just caused v the boot process for pause and the beep of the computer. I couldn't make it work.

    What version and build of OS X Server (for example 10.6 10a 433)? You have more than one virtual CPU assigned to this virtual machine?

  • OSX Server Netinstall problem

    UPDATE: NetInstall works on Mac with a RJ45/Ethernet Jack, but usually works on those who are not!

    We have a server OSX Netinstall who dishes about four different recipes of our company OSX image some with Adobe Creative suite, some without etc.

    The image server is on OSX 10.11.3 and the images themselves are also OSX 10.11.3

    It works fine on all our recent machines for the most part, and we use it to regularly "nuke & pave ' annoying / slow down Mac on our network or update machines when there is a change in personnel.

    I recently took delivery of a brand new MBP A5102 retina ranging from 13 "and we cannot get the Netinstall server to work on it.

    Initially the Macbook could not see the images, and then after a while, they appeared. However, when we chose the image of the boot disk, we get this weird message:

    "Bless tool could define the current startup disk."

    I remember rail, rear track (System 7 stylee) the notion of bless the system folder but he had not met in OSX.

    To work around this, I tried to change the HTTP of NFS slips Netinstall, but that doesn't seem to have made all the difference.

    Any input on this would be greatly appreciated.

    For the record, the new MBP comes with 10.11.3 aboard.

    You must move to 10.11.6 (installed clean, not upgrades), it has some difficulties to network.

  • malicious program or a 10.9.5 OSX system library folder?

    There is Adware on a 2009 27 "iMac still under OSX 10.9.5 (for the 3rd party compatibility for example Adobe CS6 software suite).

    I followed the threads re. removal (thanks Linc Davis) and the problem does not come back.

    To the date of departure of the Ad problems, there was a file in the Macintosh HD/library with a red dot (unopenable) 'uschiwakin', this folder is not present on the own iMac, is this a legitimate system file? Now held in the "basket", just in case.

    I tried the TotalVirus site but it could not analyze the case, I also remove dit8.tgz in private/var/tmp /... After the reboot, etc. EtreCheck always gave an alert and I need to follow this.

    Would appreciate any advice on 'unschiwarkin', because it doesn't show up on search engines. malware.

    No, it's not legitimate system folder. It is probably part of the adware,

    And do you mean, 'TotalVirus","VirusTotal "?

  • OSX Server 5 - Dynamic IP?

    Hey guys, I am using a server OSX on Lion for the last 4 years to host multiple websites. Since I have a dynamic IP, I use a dynamic dns service all that time (noip.com) to keep track of my external IP address and point the nameservers for my domain to. Using the application server 3 on Lion was easy and allowed me to set a DHCP reservation that I had assigned internally (192.168.1.10) which was outside the DHCP range.

    I'm not too well versed in such things so I hope that my explanation above of our previous configuration is sufficient. So since last night I upgraded the server to El Capitan and bought the new server (server software 5 I think), and I can't for the life of understand me what I can do here to get my sites Web working again. The server application recognized the file locations and reported on Web sites, but is more I will define a specific IP address (that is, the reserved 192.168.1.10) for Web sites.

    Can anyone offer some advice on how to get my site back operational? I still have the update dynamic IP works but I can not understand how to say my sites to use the specific DHCP reservation, that I put in place.

    Thanks in advance and I will follow this post closely if no additional information is necessary.

    -David

    I can't test these instructions at the moment, but I think you want "multiple", i.e. more that one IP address on the same network adapter. Use

    System Preferences > network

    and to add a new service ethernet with ip address is 192.168.1.10. In the section Web sites on the server, it should appear on the drop-down list when you create a new Web site the IP address, or change an existing one.
