I installed 2.3.7 over 2.2.26 and can no longer connect to the

Is there perhaps some configuration setting that I need to tweak to
get this to work? Or maybe a document that explains what I'd need to
adjust when jumping to the new version?


Hi David,

You know that there were incompatible changes made between 2.2 and 2.3 to the database structure, right? You can't simply install the new source and start slapd... You have to slapcat your old database with the 2.2 binaries, and then slapadd your database with the new binaries...
