This is suspicious. Have you put the log files elsewhere, and not chown'd them to ldap:ldap?


----
evidently I have...

# ls -l log.0000000001
-rw-------    1 ldap     ldap       422547 Feb 14 22:52 log.0000000001
[root@srv1 openldap-data]# ls -l ../openldap-logs/
total 8
-rw-------    1 ldap     ldap       423029 Feb 14 23:10 log.0000000001
[root@srv1 openldap-data]#

so I will retrace my steps...

Am I really dense?

You moved your DB_CONFIG file into place after the BDB environment was already created by slapadd, and then you started slapd. Apparently your non-default settings include putting the logs in a non-default location. Naturally the log settings that slapd sees disagree with the log settings in effect during the slapadd, so slapd is unable to find any valid logs.

You're supposed to set the DB_CONFIG first so that slapadd and slapd both operate with identical settings.
