RE: Crash at SLAPD startup

[Gary Williams <sasgwi@wnt.sas.com>]

I just pushed a fix that I think fixes this.  It's in libraries/liblutil/ntservice.c.  The problem is
the urls are NULL, and a copy is attempted without testing it first.  If you want to try to
get around it without getting new source, try starting slapd with
 
slapd -h ldap:/// <ldap:///> 
 
That might get you through the problem.

Hi,
I got a problem when i execute slapd.exe. I will do a resume of what i did.
 
I compiled the slapd project ( Debug ) under Windows NT4 with Visual Studio 6.0.
 
Created a folder to put the files i need to run the slapd server.
D:\jenova
 
The folder contains:
hs_regex.dll
libdb.dll
slapd.conf
slapd.exe
slapd.at.conf
slapd.oc.conf
 
And i have created another directory required by the file slapd.conf:
D:/LDAP_ext/data
 
The folder contains:
cn.dbb
dn.dbb
dn2id.dbb
id2children.dbb
id2entry.dbb
NEXTID
objectclass.dbb
sn.dbb
uid.dbb
 
Now, from this folder ( d:\jenova ) i run slapd this way:  
 
slapd -p 389 -f slapd.conf
 
Everyting seems to work fine, but it crashes at this point:
....
....
....
ACL: access to dn=.*,o=Telecom Italia
 attrs=userPassword
        by self
        by dn=.*
 
slapd startup: initiated.
slapd starting
 
 
crash.......
 
The error is "slapd.exe - Application Error" bla bla bla...
 
Here are a sample of my  .conf  files.
 
Any ideas?
 
Tks
