I'm using the OpenLDAP C API to connect my client program to LDAP servers in
order to perform authentication. My program establishes a permanent connection
and then sends search requests each time an authentication request is received.
Sometimes, especially when the server is stopped, my program receives a
LDAP_SERVER_DOWN error as result of a search request. I then have a handle on
the broken connection that I need to free (in order to avoid memory leaks). When
I wrote my code for non secured connections, I first used ldap_unbind() but my
program exited from time to time in this function. So I replaced this call by
ldap_ld_free() which worked perfectly well so far.
Now I have to deal with TLS connections and even with ldap_ld_free, my program
exits, and every time. I used a debugger and here is where the program exits :
