Re: Trying to switch from bdb to mdb



Hi Jerry,

your version of OpenLDAP has been compiled with dynamic backend support
(DYNAMIC_BACKENDS=on: Build dynamic backends), meaning slapd is capable
to add additional features at runtime (if you use cn=config) or at start
time (if configured in slapd.conf). As you can see from the output of
slapd -VVV the mdb backend has not been compiled statically into the
slapd binary requiring you to instruct it to load the module containing
mdb in order to support it. To find out how this is done, you should
read chapter 11 of the OpenLDAP Administrators guide
(http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/backends.html).

You also might want to read the slapd.conf manpage (assuming you still
use the plain file configuration), especially the moduleload and
modulepath sections. In addition man 'slapd.backends' and 'man
slapd-mdb' could be helpful.

Regards,
