Issue ID: 10172
Summary: check for writability of directory of logfile during
startup
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.6.7
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needs_review
Severity: enhancement
Priority: ---
Component: slapd
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Even if the logfile itself is writable, if the enclosing directory is not
writable then slapd won't be able to perform logfile rotation. Check for
this when the logfile is being configured. This will prevent starting up
with a bad config, but we still can't do anything about it if the directory's
perms are changed while slapd is already running. Logging an error message
in that situation would likely fill all disk space with that error message.
