RE: slapd stopping with no error message


It finally stopped again, but unfortunately (for the second time), I
can't find any core file. I did:

cd mydir
ulimit -c 100000 (100000k - 100m)

before I started the slapd. I do not find a core file in mydir or
anywhere on the system. Doing a lsof on the slapd process, I see
it's cwd is mydir. I am new to the linux environment. Is the core
being placed somewhere else besides 'mydir' under a different name?
Thanks for any help.

The .34 failed. I set ulimit -c 100000 and found no core on the system.
I am running it again in case I made a mistake. It is compiled with debug.
More later. Thanks!

I attached a gdb to the new process plus the -d 7 output (you know,
that neat thing that unix has called redirection). Hopefully, the
connection I have to the computer will not be lost and I will be
able to get the trace if it fails. Also, not the results below are
just the last part of the output. Let me know if I need more. For
what it is worth, I did the 'he' search shown at the bottom below
and it did not fail.... Thanks!

Finally failed, I did not have a gdb on it, but did have -d 7. Below
are the results. Thanks!

Howard pointed out that I am still asleep - he stated what to
do below '-d 7'. Thanks!

Slap/slap/slap - waking up now - sorry not much sleep since last week - sick
child, still should never forget the most basic. I will redirect. Question:
what
level of debug would you recommend. Thanks!

Unix has this cool thing called I/O redirection, perhaps you've heard of it?
There's also this other cool thing called job control...

In [t]csh I would use
	slapd -d 7 >& Errs &
In sh I would use
	nohup slapd -d 7 > Errs 2>&1 &

And if any of that looks unfamiliar to you, then you Really Really need to
go 
read Kernighan & Pike's _The_Unix_Programming_Environment_ before you do 
anything else.

All OpenLDAP 2.3.x releases work with BDB 4.5 (and 4.6, for that matter).
The 
explicit test in configure is just a formality. (If the configure test
didn't 
find a specific BDB version that it recognized, it would eventually fallback

to -ldb4 which would work anyway.)
