Escape from boredom

At IBM Hursley attending a workshop and having one-to-one meetings with WebSphere gurus together with Dino. Here just outside IBM Hursley.

At the Innovation Center, innovative clock…

Leaving IBM for the day. This picture is taken just at the roundabout outside of the area, we are really out in the backcountry

A bit further down, sheeps. Compared to IBM Hursley the main office of IBM in Norway is downtown.

Close to the end of the day, testing the Stonehenge Old Smokey, good one!

Just had an issue when trying to commit changes to SVN. Now using Collabnet Subversion Edge 3.2.2-3395.103. Have configured authentication using LDAP, that is Active Directory. Error message when trying to commit changes

svn: E175002: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E175002: Server sent unexpected return value (500 Internal Server Error) in response to POST request for '/svn/reponame/!svn/me'

Found this very strange since it was working without problems yesterday. Tried to restart both services several times, no help. Nothing found in the logs either.

Then trying to log on to the Edge admin console with my AD-user…not possible. Using the superuser, logged in, changed LDAP from using port 389 to 3268 as the console provides a hint to do: Hint: try 3268 for Active Directory servers . Restarted Apache and voila, up an running again.

My conclusion: AD …arrghh!

Trying to configure Collabnet to authenticate using LDAP following the guideline at http://blogs.collab.net/subversion/subversion_ldap.

Got the error:

Invalid command 'AuthLDAPAuthoritative', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in...

Fixed by reading this blog post sleeplessmonkey./../joys-of-apache-webserver-and-modules

Switch AuthLDAPAuthoritative to AuthzLDAPAuthoritative, problem solved.
