Hi, We updated from 2.4.23 to 2.4.39 and ran into the following issues around specifying listen interfaces for slapd. We run an n-way multi-master configuration.
It appears as if a specific interface needs to be specified in order to start slapd, and using a specific interface is prevented by a binding to all interfaces. Is this expected behavior, or a bug? Running slapd as below results in an error: $ /usr/sbin/slapd -d 1 -h "ldap:// ldapi://" -u ldap ... 546cfa04 read_config: no serverID / URL match found. Check slapd -h arguments. 546cfa04 slapd destroy: freeing system resources. 546cfa04 syncinfo_free: rid=001 546cfa04 syncinfo_free: rid=001 546cfa04 slapd stopped. 546cfa04 connections_destroy: nothing to destroy. Specifying the hostname of this ldap server (ldap02) addresses the error, but introduces another- the listener can't be started since it conflicts with the INADDR_ANY interface definition "ldap://": $ /usr/sbin/slapd -d 1 -h "ldap:// ldapi:// ldap://ldap02" -u ldap ... 546cfb52 slapd starting 546cfb53 daemon: listen(ldap://ldap02, 5) failed errno=98 (Address already in use) 546cfb53 slapd shutdown: initiated 546cfb53 ====> bdb_cache_release_all 546cfb53 slapd destroy: freeing system resources. 546cfb53 syncinfo_free: rid=001 546cfb53 syncinfo_free: rid=001 546cfb53 slapd stopped. Removing the binding to INADDR_ANY (ldap://) allows slapd to be started: $ /usr/sbin/slapd -d 1 -h "ldapi:// ldap://ldap02" -u ldap Thanks, Jason
