Re: ldap server doesn't run after inserting some groups (cn)

[stefano malini <lozingalo@gmail.com>]

ok, am sorry.

as said i have LDAP server on Debian Squeeze.
It was working fine until adding this ldif file:

  GNU nano 2.2.4           File: /etc/ldap/cn.ldif 


#gruppo Studenti
dn: cn=Students,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi
cn: Students
gidNumber: 2000
objectClass: posixGroup

#gruppo Staff
dn: cn=Staff,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi
cn: Staff
gidNumber: 2001
objectClass: posixGroup

#gruppo Admins
dn: cn=Admins,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi
cn: Admins
gidNumber: 2002
objectClass: posixGroup

#gruppo Teachers
dn: cn=Teachers,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi
cn: Teachers
gidNumber: 2003
objectClass: posixGroup

The first time i tried using ldapadd but it gave me this error:

root@amahoro:/etc/ldap# ldapadd -x -W -D 'cn=Manager,dc=amahoro,dc=bi' 
-f cn.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
adding new entry "cn=Students,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi"
ldap_add: Other (e.g., implementation specific) error (80)
        additional info: index generation failed

Then i used slapadd without errors:

root@amahoro:/etc/ldap# slapadd -v -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l cn.ldif
hdb_db_open: database "dc=amahoro,dc=bi": unclean shutdown detected; 
attempting recovery.

added: "cn=Staff,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi" (0000000a)
added: "cn=Admins,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi" (0000000b)
added: "cn=Teachers,ou=Groups,dc=amahoro,dc=bi" (0000000c)

Closing DB...

From this moment the ldap server has stopped to work.

This is /var/log/syslog tring to use the server.

The server is connected to the lan but ldap server doesn't work.
What do you think?

Thanks
