Re: Update: replog not created anymore ...



Hi all !

Let's see if I can get some variabled out of the way.

First: My 'broken' slave meant: slapcat return 0 lines of information but 1 line which contains an error message. (Yes: What message? ... I don't remember, but I could retry this night when no users are actively using the system).

Second: Location in the configuration file. This could be a problem, but it might be a good idea if slaptest could verify possible broken setups?

bye,
Chris

a good ITS yet.


However, in reading the man page for slapd.conf, "replogfile" is not a per-db directive (at least not according to the 2.2.17 manpage), which means that it shouldn't matter where in the configuration file the "replogfile" statement is put, which sounds like a bug to me. Either the documentation is wrong, or slapd isn't behaving correctly.

Hm, in my copy of the 2.2 manpage, replogfile is listed in the General Database Options section, not the Global Configuration Options section. That means it is indeed database-specific (but independent of database type), and its position in the conf file is significant.


I agree with Kurt, there isn't enough context provided to see where the real problems are, but it is doubtless an error in the config file.
