JDS Replicating maybe not?

When trying to replicate packages from our JSS to a JDS via admin client everything seems to be working in that the progress bar keeps moving and packages are showing as being replicated. But when looking at the share on the JDS there is nothing in the share and the "replicated" packages do not show in the file system.

Both JSS and JDS are on Redhat 6.4 VM's.

Also the share on the JDS has both owner and group as "root".

Has anyone else seen this, or is there more documentation somewhere about how the JDS works?

This is now solved if others have a similar issue.

The error was that the file ssl.conf did not exist.
If the file is created with the touch command:
sudo cd etc/httpd/conf.d
sudo touch ssl.conf

Then rerun the installer it all works.

Further info, we have two JDS a parent and child, looking at the JAMFChangeManagement.log on the JSS during the replication process we see as below:

@dmw3][/url: The first command fails on our JDS. We have no such directory. Is your syntax correct? Was this run on the JDS or JSS. I'm running 10.8.5 on both with JSS and JDS v9.21.

root# sudo cd etc/httpd/conf.d /usr/bin/cd: line 4: cd: etc/httpd/conf.d: No such file or directory

Thanks

Try your command with an extra / at the front. This specifies the root directory. You don't need it if you're starting from root, but your default directory isn't / , It is /Users/username. You probably want:

sudo cd /etc/httpd/conf.d
