Re: consumer crashing provider

Hi guys

I am trying to set-up a pair of directory servers. Both of them run
Ubuntu 8.04, which has OpenLDAP-2.4.9.

I started out with one server, configured that to suit my needs (store
UNIX and smb accounts), which works fine. Next thing is to set-up a
second 'slave' server.

After reading the docs, I decided to go for the syncrepl style
replication for our micro tree. Everything seems to work fine. If I
start the consumer it nicely pulls content from the provider.

Retrieving the whole tree with ldapsearch from both servers yields
exactly the same ldif. Great.

However, if I now change something on my main server a.k.a. provider
(f.i. change a password), the next time the consumers contacts the
provider, the provider crashes:

root@ldap:/etc/ldap# slapd -f slapd.conf -g openldap -u openldap  -d 15

A slave server killing a master sort of defeats the whole purpose ;-)

Any ideas how to solve this?

I suggest you download OpenLDAP 2.4.11 and try again; there were a large number of syncprov fixes since 2.4.9.
