Are there any notes available for "upgrading" from 7.1 to 1.0 (my feelings about using lower version numbers for newer releases, aside)?

I just did a 'rpm -uvh fedora-ds-1.0-2.RHEL3.i386.opt.rpm --force' to upgrade a test installation and upon trying to start slapd, I get:

# ./start-slapd
[01/Dec/2005:08:59:17 -0500] SSL Initialization - Warning: certificate DB file /opt/fedora-ds/alias/slapd-tremolite-cert8.db does not exist - SSL initialization will likely fail [01/Dec/2005:08:59:17 -0500] SSL Initialization - Warning: key DB file /opt/fedora-ds/alias/slapd-tremolite-key3.db does not exist - SSL initialization will likely fail [01/Dec/2005:08:59:17 -0500] - SSL alert: Security Initialization: NSS initialization failed (Netscape Portable Runtime error -8192 - An I/O error occurred during security authorization.): path: /opt/fedora-ds/alias/, certdb prefix: slapd-tremolite-, keydb prefix: slapd-tremolite-.
[01/Dec/2005:08:59:17 -0500] - ERROR: NSS Initialization Failed.

Both DB files do exist:

# pwd
/opt/fedora-ds/alias
# ls -al slap*
-rw------- 1 root nobody 65536 Jun 3 17:14 slapd-tremolite-cert8.db -rw------- 1 root nobody 16384 Jun 3 17:14 slapd-tremolite-key3.db

Do I still need to run the setup script, even if its an upgrade, not a fresh install?

Yes, and that probably won't work in an upgrade installation situation. For upgrade, it's best to backup your data and security db files, and do a completely new installation. You should be able to save your data, database configuration, security configuration, replication configuration, etc., remove the old software, install the new software, and reapply your old data and config.

There was a bug in the server - those files should be owned by "nobody" (or whatever your ns-slapd uid is). We have not tested upgrade install - there may be some problems with the console or other admin server functions because the admin server is radically different.
