Good Afternoon,

  I am attempting to upgrade my openldap 2.4.x installation to the latest
release 2.4.24. I am compiling from source. I can start slapd as the
root user but I am unable to start as a non-root user (e.g. ldap). I am
receiving the following error message:

/opt/openldap/libexec/slapd -u ldap -g ldap -h ldap://XXXXX.XXXXXXXX.XXX
slapd: sbind.c:76: ldap_simple_bind: Assertion `(
(ld)->ld_options.ldo_valid == 0x2 )' failed.
Aborted

  Is the server attempting to bind to another ldap server? This is the
"secondary" server on the network an I have the main LDAP server in
/etc/ldap.conf. Running an strace I do see slapd referencing this file:

Does anyone have any ideas here?
strace is generally useless. Make sure you built with debugging symbols, and use gdb to get a backtrace.
