failure of setup-ds-admin

Hi,

We keep failing  to install admin-server by setup-ds-admin script. Installation of dirsrv
instance goes well.
We use 1-2-11 version of 389 DS on Solaris. Before running the setup script, I removed the
previous installation with
remove-ds-admin.pl script. Also, some conf files from admin-serv directory I deleted
manually.
Now, in addition to the failure to create admin-server, console.conf, httpd.conf and
nss.conf have not been created.
Even the reboot of the machine did not help.

Is it possible that the manual removal of the files caused the problem?
If not does anybody know what could be the problem?

For your reference, I have copied what I think that may be relevant log info from a setup
log.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

If you run "yum update 389-admin", are the files recovered?  These conf 
files are part of the 389-admin package.
$ rpm -ql 389-admin | egrep '\.conf'
/etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/admserv.conf
/etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/console.conf
/etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/httpd.conf
/etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/nss.conf

Thanks Noriko,

but it did not help. I do not have yum on Solaris, nor I could find the packages 
downloaded by pkgutil.
I have even downloaded 389-admin again, but the installation failed.

/etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/nss.conf

Resolved.
To summarize, for anyone who could find himself in troubles due to missing admin-server
configuration files:
Never delete  admin-serv/{admserv.conf, console.conf, httpd.conf and nss.conf} manually.
Without them 389-admin package cannot even be removed.
To resolve my problem, I had to create dummy files with these names, remove 389-admin
package(pkgutil –y –r CSW389-admin) and install it again to have setup-ds-admin.pl pass
successfully.
