Description Axel Thimm 2009-02-07 09:42:28 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #206399 +++

Description of problem:
The script /etc/init.d/messagebus hangs during bootup if the system is
configured for LDAP authentication. Disabling LDAP authentication solves the
problem.

_____________________________________________________________________

The problems described in the bug above exist in RHEL5 since 5.0.

If the server rebooting is ldap-serving itself, dbus hangs during reboots. In a debugging session, ensuring that ldap starts before messagebus solved the issue.

So it either needs a reordering of the boot sequence of the services (e.g. move ldap to the front of any consuming service), or some nss_ldap magic.

Comment 1 Axel Thimm 2009-02-07 11:47:34 UTC
The fix was in the /etc/ldap.conf.rpmnew file. Sorry for the noise.

I can't close this as a duplicate of bug #243753, as bugzilla says:
