Thank you both for your replies.  I am new to learning directory server in the Linux world.  I have always used AD before and while I have a fair bit of Linux experience using DS has been a new experience for me.  I'll check through the logs and see what I can figure out.  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!  :-)  More to follow.

Yes, check the errors log file liek mentioned, and/or the systemd 's dirsrv status , and/or journalctl -r --unit=dirsrv@\*

Without logs, I will just speculate the ns-slapd daemon needed the key file password at restart, and was waiting at a prompt, then eventually timed out.
if this is the case, check the admin guide at either
9.4.1.4. Starting Directory Server Without a Password File
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/10/html/administration_guide/enabling_tls#starting_directory_server_without_a_password_file
or
9.4.1.5. Creating a Password File for Directory Server
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/10/html/administration_guide/enabling_tls#creating_a_password_file_for_directory_server

Thanks,
M.

Hi Jeremy,

I would look at the /var/log/dirsrv/admin-serv/error and /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-config/errors files to see what is preventing you from starting the services.

I am following the Red Hat Directory Server 10 Admin Guide under section 9.4.1.2.  So far I have been able to create the certificates and database and getting the certs imported to the proper locations.  My issue happens when I attempt to restart the services.  The service eventually just times out trying to restart and I get a message "the server could not be restarted".  I end up losing the changes I had just made in the console.  I have tried to review my settings to be sure I didn't overlook something and everything seems to be ok.  What logs should I be reviewing to see why the service isn't restarting properly?
