Issue/Introduction

Description:
When issuing the dsadmind start all command DXadmind will not start. The following error is encountered:

Initialised library 'eTrust Directory'
Initialised library 'Policy Compliance eTrust Directory'
plugin_init failed: (-1) Error checking dxadminURLs are unique in plugin_root_update
database init failed (monitor)
Error checking dxadminURLs are unique in plugin_root_update

Solution:
The dxadminURL value in the DXAdmin configuration file is not correct. The following procedure can be used to correct this problem.

• Locate the DXadmin configuration file.
  
  
• The file can be found in the following location:
  
  Windows - %DXHOME%\config\dxadmind.ldif
  Unix - $DXHOME/config/dxadmind.ldif
  
  
• The dxadminURL value should be set to a resolvable IP address or hostname
  
  
• For example:
  dn: dxadminRoot=hortr02
  objectClass: dxadminRoot
  dxadminVersion: 2
  dxadminContainsConfig: FALSE
  dxadminDsaControl: TRUE
  dxadminDefaultAccess: read
  userPassword:: c2VjcmV0
  dxadminRoot: hortr02
  dxadminServerName: hortr02
  dxadminTLSCertificateFile: C:Program Files\CA\eTrust Directory\dxserver\config\ssld\personalities\dxadmin.pem
  dxadminTLSCertificateKeyFile: C:Program Files\CA\eTrust Directory\dxserver\config\ssldpersonalities\dxadmin.pem
  dxadminTLSCACertificateFile: C:Program Files\CA\eTrust Directory\dxserver\config\ssld\trusted.pem
  dxadminTLSVerifyClient: never
  dxadminTrustedHosts: HORTR02
  dxadminURL: ldaps://hortr02:2125/

In the above example the value is set to ldaps://hortr02:2125/. Once this value is set correctly DXadmind should start.
