Package: slapd
Version: 2.2.23-3
Severity: minor
Testing with an LDIF that I knew would require the use of fix_ldif, I
got the following curious error:
Backing up /etc/ldap/slapd.conf in /var/backups/slapd-2.1.30-3... done.
Updating config access directives... done.
Moving old database directories to /var/backups:
- directory dc=netexpress,dc=net... done.
Loading from /var/backups/slapd-2.1.30-3:
- directory dc=netexpress,dc=net... fixing, failed.
Loading the database from the LDIF dump failed with the following
error while running slapadd:
slapadd: could not parse entry (line=326)
The error message being printed was surprising, since that line
pointed to the dn that I knew needed fixing, and that fix_ldif should
have fixed correctly. It turns out that fix_ldif *did* in fact fix it,
but an unrelated bug in fix_ldif caused a failure later on:
slapadd: dn="uid=mumble,ou=People,dc=netexpress,dc=net"
(line=315300): (65) object class 'posixAccount' requires attribute 'cn'
I've fixed this error in fix_ldif, but I'm confused why I had to rerun
fix_ldif by hand to get the error reported to me. Seems to be a bug in
capture_diagnostics/release_diagnostics?
