 |
|
My server box just got rebooted after a long time and the slapd service won't start. I get the very unhelpful error messages:
# serv slapd start
* Directory directory in config does not exist!
* There is a problem with your slapd.conf!
* ERROR: slapd failed to start
Here is my slapd.conf:
| Code: |
include /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/misc.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/openldap.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/dyngroup.schema
pidfile /run/openldap/slapd.pid
argsfile /run/openldap/slapd.args
access to dn.base="" by * read
access to dn.base="cn=Subschema" by * read
access to *
by self write
by users read
by anonymous auth
by dn.base="cn=Manager,dc=xxxx,dc=xxx" write
database bdb
suffix "dc=xxxxx,dc=xxx"
rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=xxxx,dc=xxx"
checkpoint 32 30
rootpw {SSHA}zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
directory /var/lib/openldap-data
index objectClass eq
|
All the directories referenced exist. Is there some new setting I need?
TIA

I just backed up my data and config, removed the package and reinstalled it. I get exactly the same error. Running the start command with debug shows the problem is in the Gentoo scripts, not the slapd.conf file.
| Code: |
+ CONF=/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
+ '[' -d /etc/openldap/slapd.conf ']'
++ eval awk '"/^(directory|olcDbDirectory:)/{print $2}"' /etc/openldap/slapd.conf
+++ awk '/^(directory|olcDbDirectory:)/{print }' /etc/openldap/slapd.conf
+ DBDIRS='directory /var/lib/openldap-data'
+ for d in '$DBDIRS'
+ '[' '!' -d directory ']'
+ eerror 'Directory directory in config does not exist!'
* Directory directory in config does not exist!

The DBDIRS variable is not getting set properly. It looks like a bug.

Falling back to version 2.4.38-r2 fixes the problem.
