[SOLVED] RE: OpenLDAP 2.4 : replication doesn't work when customer is stopped

[PROST FrÃdÃric <f.prost@mb-line.com>]

After so many days of testing I finally found the solution, which is working on both the last version built from source and the Debian version : 
I found it thanks to this post : 
http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201008/msg00274.html

When we check the csn value it appears that ServerID is not transmitted :
csn=20120308091919.539118Z#000000#000#000000 (the string #000# should be serverID)

. To correct this problem, I simply changed the slapd -h option in my startup script (/etc/default/slapd on Debian)
from : 
SLAPD_SERVICES="ldap:/// ldapi:///"
To : 
SLAPD_SERVICES="ldap://<ip or hostname of the server (same as oclServerID)>"

This has to be done on both nodes with the correct IP.

Then, my csn is now someting like :
csn=20120308111043.060040Z#000000#001#000000 (note the #001# corresponding to the serverId)

Then retart the server and everything is runnig fine.

Using 2.4.23 from Debian is a bad decision, for numerous reasons, which have been discussed multiple times on the list.

Please see: <http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/1456.html>

for just a beginning of the reasons as to why this is a bad idea.
