Comment 19 for bug 12083

Hi Torsten,

thanks for your 2.2 packages.

I've already upgraded our production servers because I was
hoping to get rid of the database corruption problems.

Here are my results so far:

* ldapi:/// is not working after the upgrade
 Use
 --localstatedir=/var (instead of /var/run)
 in debian/configure.options

 slapd tries to create the socket in /var/run/run/ldapi - which fails.
 (We are using heimdal with openldap backend and need ldapi:///)

 Furthermore the socket should be 600 - but I don't know how to set this.

* DB_CONFIG gets lost on upgrades
 /var/lib/ldap/DB_CONFIG gets lost on upgrades, which makes
 reimporting the Ldap database with slapadd very slow with big ldif files.
 If possible save the DB_CONFIG on upgrades.

* slapd with db4.3 has indeed problems.
 My database corruption problems were still present with pre4 - I upgraded
 to pre6 on 2005-04-02. Let's hope db4.2 fixes the database corruption.

* If possible upgrade to openldap 2.2.24
 I've applied your patches to 2.2.24 - no problems so far.

Greetings,
Gerald
