Re: Uninvited listener?



Most likely you are both seeing a bug in glibc, documented in our ITS#5251.

I am new to LDAP, and am trying to get OpenLDAP installed on a computer
running SUSE 11.0.  (Actually, I did this on two similarly configured
machines with the same result.)  Everything goes smoothly up until the
"make test" step, which produces:

     >>>>>  Starting test000-rootdse ...
     running defines.sh
     Starting slapd on TCP/IP port 9011...

     make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/pkg/openldap/openldap-2.4.11/tests'
     make: *** [test] Error 2

The file slapd1.l.log in tests/testrun ends with the following:

     >>>  dnNormalize:<cn=Write>
     <<<  dnNormalize:<cn=write>
     slapd starting
     daemon: listen(ldap://localhost:9011/, 5) failed errno=98 (Address already in use)
     slapd shutdown: initiated
     ====>  bdb_cache_release_all
     slapd destroy: freeing system resources.
     slapd stopped.

I found another thread on this list that suggested slapd might already be
running, but in my case a check of processes found nothing including "slapd"
or "ldap".  I also found threads suggesting that this kind of error can be
caused by IPv6, so I repeated everything with the option --enable-ipv6=no
with the same result.  I also tried adding the line ALL: ALL : ALLOW
in hosts.allow, which didn't help either.

Suggestions?  Thanks.
