All,
I've spent the last weekend trying to get two managers to replicate the database from the Primary to the Secondary. I've checked the comms (I can ssh from one to the other using nsm and not get a password prompt). I have tried recreating the database - no luck - I have tried fixing the issue as detailed in KB10465 and no improvement at all.
tailing the guiDaemon.0 log file gives me this message:

I am at my wits end with this time vampire. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue?
