Slapd-meta and multiple uri

[Nicolas RENAULT <nicolas_renault@yahoo.fr>]

Hello ,

I have a problem with meta and multiple uri :

Two AD server
opensuse 13.1
openldap 2.4.39 (install from repo)

make a meta backend that work but I when I configure it I use this 
directive , try to make a failover conf :

uri ldap://172.17.150.47:3268/ou=AD,ou=TOUT,dc=example,dc=fr
        ldap://172.17.150.48:3268/

Work like a charm until 172.17.150.47 go down --> slapd never try to 
contact 172.17.150.48 ...

slapd.conf ( relevant part )

----------------------------------------------------------

network-timeout     1
timeout             3
idletimeout     10
writetimeout    10

database         meta
suffix              "ou=AD,ou=TOUT,dc=example,dc=fr"

uri ldap://172.17.150.47:3268/ou=AD,ou=TOUT,dc=example,dc=fr
        ldap://172.17.150.48:3268/

suffixmassage "ou=AD,ou=TOUT,dc=example,dc=fr" "dc=example,dc=fr"
idassert-bind bindmethod=simple 
binddn="cn=xxxxxx,cn=Users,dc=example,dc=fr" credentials=<secret> mode=none
idassert-authzFrom "dn.regex:.*"

--------------------------------------------------------------

I search on the list and found this :

http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201208/msg00231.html 
(one post on the thread, I read all of them)

The problem is exactly the same : if I start slapd and 172.17.150.47 not 
present (iptable output drop or reject) never ask 172.17.150.48 (tcpdump 
on the interface of slapd server)

Howard Chu :

Sounds like you should file an ITS.

Pierangelo: looking at libldap/request.c and libldap/.open.c, it appears that
request.c:ldap_new_connection() expects open.c:ldap_int_open_connection() to
return -2 on an asynch open, but ldap_int_open_connection() unconditionally
returns 0. This is probably interfering with back-meta's urllist_proc.

so I look to the ITS 7372 
http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Incoming?id=7372;selectid=7372
But no answers, and no trace on changelog

it's something wrong in my conf (if so tell me what) and if no can some 
of the dev take a look at the problem ?

Thank's and have a good day.
