RE: slapd service started but no one could enter in server

[<ricardo.ferreira@cimsoft.pt>]

Hi,
Please give me a hand here. This should be easy. For sure I'm doing
something silly.

I've tried to do this:

1 - db_recover to the openLDAP since the files /usr/local/var/openldap-data
were intact.
     >/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.4/bin/db_recover -c -h
/usr/local/var/openldap-data/
       db_recover: unable to join the environment

    ( A ) Why does return this error?
    ( B ) The db_recover ends and the ldap starts to work even with that
error


2 - Starts the ldap server in debug mode and gives me these last lines
    >"bdb_db_open: unclean shutdown detected; attempting recovery.
    >bdb_db_open: dbenv_open(/usr/local/var/openldap-data)
    >slapd starting
    >daemon: added 4r
    >daemon: added 7r
    >daemon: added 8r
    >daemon: select: listen=7 active_threads=0 tvp=zero
    >daemon: select: listen=8 active_threads=0 tvp=zero

    ( C ) When the ldap server doesn't start didn't gives me the 6 last
lines. Why?
    ( D )  It continues to give me the error "bdb_db_open: unclean shutdown
detected; attempting recovery.".
             Why? I didn't do nothing to corrupt the database. I only access
to it.

3 - How should we stop ldap server service.
     I use the one that the manual indicates: kill the process

    ( E ) Is there any new method that stops the ldap correctly?

Please give me a hand here
Thks in advance
Ricardo Ferreira

Hi,

Software Specifications

 - SleepyCat   v4.4

1 - Use slapadd to restore ldap
2 - start ldap service OK
3 - use ldap server OK

4 - need to shutdown server
5 - restart ldap server in debug mode

ERROR:
6 - in the last lines gives me this
(...)
slapd startup: initiated.
backend_startup_one: starting "cn=config"
config_back_db_open
config_build_entry: "cn=config"
config_build_entry: "cn=include{0}"

bdb_db_open: dc=Cimsoft,dc=pt
bdb_db_open: dbenv_open(/usr/local/var/openldap-data)
bdb(dc=Cimsoft,dc=pt): unable to join the environment

Questions
( A ) What is the error "unable to join the environment" ?
( B ) Why it works the first time ?
( C ) What I could do now? I've got all the files in
/usr/local/var/openldap-data/ intact and with all the logs.

Thks in advance
