I am running into the SyncRepl provider failure discussed in ITS 3534 and 3546, using OpenLDAP 2.2.23. Based on those discussions, it seems there are 4 options: 1) Apply a patch listed in 3546, which will fix this particular problem, but will revert to the resource leak described in ITS 3448. 2) Upgrade to 2.3.x, which is labelled as alpha (which I assume means unfit for production) 3) Downgrade to ~2.2.17 which did not seem to have this problem, but of course is lacking other patches included in 2.2.23 4) Use Slurp for replication instead of SyncRepl (SyncRepl has worked fine for me 2.2.6 through 2.2.19, for 2 replicas). Of course, I am hoping for unlisted option 5) "Upgrade to 2.2.24, which would include a fix for this problem", but of course I understand that 2.2.23 is frozen, and that this fix may require much effort. So, since I am not qualified to write this fix myself, which of the above 4 options is the recommended path? Thank you, -Matt Matthew J.
