Dear list,

what does this error mean ?

------------------------------------
bdb_index_read: failed (-30989)
-----------------------------------------

and how can I fix it ?

here is the index portion of my slapd.conf

--------------------------------------------------
# Indices to maintain
index   objectClass     eq
index   accountActive,virtualDomain  eq
index   mail     eq
------------------------------------------------------



It looks like your index might be corrupt.  When you search for
something that isn't indexed but you get a message more like this:
<= bdb_equality_candidates: (myAttrib) index_param failed (18).

Whereas your message (bdb_index_read: failed (-30989)) seems to be
more related to sleepycat not being able to read the index, not a
specific attribute.  :)

No. Depending on the version of BerkeleyDB being used, this could be a DB_NOTFOUND result (which just means the data being queried for doesn't exist) or a DB_OLDVERSION result (which means the DB file was created by an older version of BDB). Since the original poster didn't provide a BerkeleyDB version number, it's impossible to tell what the actual problem is.

Don't just throw out random guesses when you don't have enough information to answer a question. Ask more questions and get the necessary info.
