OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic : Trash :
OpenLDAP on AIX V4.2.1 a. Using V2.7 of Berkeley DB compiled with cc_r
b. Compiling Openldap with cc_r, telling it to use ldbm_api=db2
c. Recoding the thread create routine in libraries/liblthread/thr_posix.c
to explicitly set the UNDETACHED attribute (AIX 4.2 defaults to
detached, 4.3 to undetached).
If you use gcc you cannot use pthreads on AIX, you must use the IBM C
compiler in its thread safe form, cc_r.The Berkeley DB routines would not work reliably until they were compiled in thread safe form (even though this is not supposed to be necessary).
For anyone interested I have placed my modified thr_posix.c file and the compiled programs and libraries on ftp.viacognis.com/pub/ldap.
