Re: (ITS#6489) Incomplete Master/Slave Replication

[frank.offermanns@caseris.de]

Hello Quanah,

thanks for your info.
I compiled OpenLDAP 2.4.23 and BDB 4.8.30, but unfortunately the problem 
still persists. 
I added 10000 Users added and:
with RefreshAndPersist in 136 users at least one attribute was missing. 
with RefreshOnly in 34 users at least one attribute was missing. 

In my post in March I said, that with accesslog I do not have this 
problem. This is not completely true.
Meanwhile (also with 2.4.21) I found out that with accesslog I also have 
this problem, but less frequentely.
So with about 40000 users added I had only about 1 or 2 attributes 
missing. With the new version I added 10000, 20000 and 80000 users without 
a single problem. So I am not sure, if this problem still persist with 
accesslog, but with RefreshAndPersist and RefreshOnly there is definitely 
still a problem. 
Due to the fact that no one else complains about this, maybe this problem 
is Windows only?
Or is there someone else who also has this problem?

If you are interested I could provide you my windows test-application. 
With this the problem can be reproduced in a few minutes. Let me know if I 
should send you this program. 

Thanks a lot so far.

Best regards,
Frank Offermanns
