Package: slapd
Version: 2.4.57+dfsg-3+deb11u1
Severity: important

For slapd on Debian 10 and Debian 11, we sometimes observe service restart failures.

We use a self-written script [1] to update Let's Encrypt certificates. This script restarts services it knows after the SSL cert file has been updated.

One of the services we restart is slapd. Over the past months we have seen various restart failures for slapd (LDAP service has been down in the morning after Let's Encrypt updates).

Our work-around [2] for now is stopping slapd, waiting for 1 sec and then starting it again.

However, I sense that the systemd unit file might need the real fix for this.

Unfortunately, I don't have any Debian testing systems in the field with a similar setup, but I assume that the fix is still present for slapd in bookworm, unless the issue has been explicitly addressed already.

Greets,
Mike
