[Bug 334639] New: openldap2 update renders DB unusable
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334639 Summary: openldap2 update renders DB unusable Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer When upgrading from 10.2's openldap to 10.3's openldap, it did not convert the database (which makes BDB/HDB quite unsuitable, to begin). Ideas on how to correct this now? Plans to add a proper conversion? (It is already done for mysql tables for example, AFAICT.) # slapcat bdb(o=ICHI): Program version 4.5 doesn't match environment version 4.4 hdb_db_open: Database cannot be opened, err -30972. Restore from backup! bdb(o=ICHI): DB_ENV->lock_id_free interface requires an environment configured for the locking subsystem backend_startup_one: bi_db_open failed!

I missed that, sorry. But, this time it is really easy to fix. Just remove the database's environment files (all files matching "__db.*") from the LDAP database directory (usually /var/lib/ldap/). After that start the LDAP server and it will take care to recreate the files correctly. Does that work for you? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

That seems very risky. Not really. You can always savely remove the "__db.*" files, when slapd is not running. You will not loose any data, by that. You should however not delete any of the *.db files ;-)
What I did in the meantime was slapcat; upgrade; slapadd. Ok, that works as well.
