Package: slapd Version: 2.4.17-2 Severity: serious Hello,
the message Starting OpenLDAP: slapd - failed: Fatal: no entropy gathering module detected is cause by $ ls -l /dev/*random crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 1, 8 26. Sep 09:41 /dev/random crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 1, 9 26. Sep 09:42 /dev/urandom and slapd being started as user 'openldap' but $ grep openldap /etc/group dialout:x:20:bayer,moeller,cupsys,chipcard openldap:x:133: openldap is not part of dialout or of anything else. Adding openldap to dialout has fixed this for me - while nothaving any idea on why /dev/random cannot be read by everyone.
