Whoop! I ran that search in a hurry yesterday just to have something to paste into the email. I had run my search and the one you suggested earlier (correctly) but couldnt see the entry. I did, however, manage to delete the entry which I could not see. The trick was, I had to shut down both masters, then start only the master that had been printing out the errors. At this point, the error-printing master was not printing the error (no replication from the other server pushing this change across). Then, I was able to do an ldapmodify and delete the invisible glue entry. I then started up the other master, and replication resumed as normal, without any error messages. That seemed to work for me. Thanks for all of your help. ~James [soleo at mstrldap01 ~]$ ldapsearch -MMxw xxxx -D "cn=Directory Manager" -b "ou=people,dc=soleocommunications,dc=com" -s one -h 10.1.5.211 '(uid=soleotester)' # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <ou=people,dc=soleocommunications,dc=com> with scope one # filter: (uid=soleotester) # requesting: ALL # with manageDSAit critical control # # search result search: 2 result: 0 Success # numResponses: 1 On Tuesday 25 March 2008 18:26:26 Nathan Kinder wrote: > James wrote: > > Thanks for the suggestion.
