Issue ID: 9363
Summary: removing olcReadOnly on a DB does not set it to FALSE
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.4.53
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: ---
Component: slapd

ldif config that reproduces the issue
I am running the following test:
* add olcReadOnly: TRUE on a MDB database in cn=config
* Try to write to the MDB database => fails with "unwilling to perform" as
expected
* remove the olcReadOnly attribute from the MDB database
* Try to write to the MDB database => still fails with the same error
* Restart slapd
* Try to write to the MDB database => OK
However the following test works as expected:
* add olcReadOnly: TRUE on a MDB database in cn=config
* Try to write to the MDB database => fails with "unwilling to perform" as
expected
* modify olcReadOnly to FALSE on the MDB database
* Try to write to the MDB database => OK
It seems a little counter intuitive to me that removing a setting does not
reset it to its default value. The fact that a slapd restart make writing
possible again in the first test described above makes it seem to the casual
user that olcReadOnly cannot be undone without a restart at all.
Tested in 2.4.53 and 2.4.44, config attached but it probably works with any
config (hdb, etc)
