9.3 Administration Console Upgrade Fails

If Administration Console upgrade fails and you get the following error message:

Upgrading the Novell Access Manager Configuration Store:     
sed: can't read /tmp/nids_inst_bind_rest.ldif: No such file or directory
sed: can't read /tmp/nids_inst_bind_rest.ldif: No such file or directory

Perform the following steps:

IMPORTANT:Administration Console checks for proper host entry in the FQDN format before upgrading to Access Manager 4.4. The host entry must be the first entry in the /etc/hosts file. For example, 10.10.10.10 amac.blr.novell.com must be the first entry in the /etc/hosts file, where 10.10.10.10 is the IP address of Administration Console. To find FQDN, use command openssl s_client -connect <IP address>:636 | grep CN, where <IP address> is the IP address of Administration Console LDAP server.
