It's been working well until this morning for going on a month
(fortunately it's not live yet, but was planning to put it live this
weekend - not anymore!). I'm not sure what occurred exactly, a few
password changes and minor updates to a couple of attributes but
since a few hours ago any attempt to write to anything in the
userRoot database fails and slapd crashes. I've looked in the error
and access logs but it doesn't give much away - on restart i see:
[18/Jan/2007:14:48:42 +0000] - Fedora-Directory/1.0.4 B2006.312.435
starting up
[18/Jan/2007:14:48:42 +0000] - Detected Disorderly Shutdown last time
Directory Server was running, recovering database.
[18/Jan/2007:14:48:43 +0000] - slapd started. Listening on All
Interfaces port 389 for LDAP requests
[18/Jan/2007:14:48:43 +0000] - Listening on All Interfaces port 636
for LDAPS requests
What can do to get more info?
start-slapd -d 1
or
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/FAQ#Troubleshooting and use
the TRACE debug level.
thanks, the server takes a long time to fully start and is really quite
slow with this switch. I suppose thats normal.
Any hints as to what else to look for, there is an enormous amount of
output. The log ends (when it crashes when i attempt any write
operation) with a segmentation fault.
Yesterday i did password change using ldappasswd and i found this
issue (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=179723)
just now - my directory does have a password policy. Is this fixed in
1.0.4?
Yes, it is supposed to be - but if you reproduced it with 1.0.4, then
I guess not :-(
So, if I understand correctly - you used ldappasswd to change a user's
password, and you have password policy enabled (global or local?), and
you can crash the server.
I have all three requirements it seems to reproduce this bug, 1. ssl on,
2. password policy global and local/subtree and i've used ldappassword
(yesterday) - uh oh!
My issue is slightly different in that the server crashes when any
update is attempted, not just a modify password.
Is there any way to restore an old database and turn off all password
policy for the time being without writing to the directory / user
database? Probably not i suppose, at least not easily. So is my best bet
to dump the directory to ldif and do a reinstall and reconfigure. What
do you think?
I have tried a restore from a week old backup (using bak2db) but that
didn't fix the problem so anyone got any idea whats going on and how
i might start fixing this - Help!?
Thanks
Nick
