OpenLDAP is built using the version of DB 2 bundled with glibc. What specific problems are you having? Problem is that sooner or later (3,4 days or even weeks) after openldap restart database is corrupted. Looks like problem is in database.Openldap faq says that it need db2 >= 2.7.5. Now I compile openldap 1.2.9-4.srpm with berkeley db2 2.7.7 and run it about week. After restart all is OK. But this is not complete test :( Version 1.2.9 from Raw Hide (ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/) or 6.2 may already solve this problem. I'm changing the component to glibc, which is where the bundled copy of Berkeley DB is in, so that's where a fix would need to be made. To avoid this problem, we're switching to gdbm for future builds of OpenLDAP. Migration will be messy, though, as it requires a manual ldbmcat before the upgrade and an ldif2ldbm afterwards. |
