Hi guys. How can i set up logging for openldap so i can find out why the
damn thing won't start? :P
i've got the good old ldap_bind: can't contact LDAP server (-1)
problem... and i'd like to look at a log file to see what is causing the
problem
I know how to set the loglevel to 256 in the configuration file, but no
idea what file to look at for the output.
Help! :D


Personally, when slapd won't work, I turn on debugging:

slapd -d -1

and read the output.

Of course, being unable to bind to the ldap server doesn't mean it isn't running... I assume you checked to see whether or not there was a slapd process?
