Re: Ldap database corrupts when I use slapadd
What is the user that slapd is running as? On RH 7.3, I've had problems
where I ran slapadd or slapindex as root, and the permissions on the
resulting index files (in /var/lib/ldap) were too restrictive for my
ldap server, which runs as 'ldap'.
So check the permissions on the bdb files in /var/lib/ldap and make sure
they have read/write for the user the ldap server runs as.
