That solved the problem. I wonder why the "configure" step did not complain about the missing libraries.
I got the server running using ldaps after installing openssl-devel RPM package and all its dependencies, recompiling OpenLDAP and reinstalling. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jorge Medina Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2008 4:59 PM To: openldap-software@openldap.org Subject: RE: slapd does not start, where do I find the error? Oops, yes. I meant 2.4.11 Thanks for the options on calling slapd. It complains that TLS is not supported; my RHEL comes with openssl installed but not with the openssl-devel package. I'll try to build again after installing the openssl-devel package. -----Original Message----- From: Quanah Gibson-Mount [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2008 1:06 PM To: Jorge Medina; openldap-software@openldap.org Subject: Re: slapd does not start, where do I find the error? --On Thursday, July 31, 2008 10:14 AM -0400 Jorge Medina <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I got the sources (2.2.8), compiled and installed OpenLDAP in RedHat > Enterprise Linux 5 ( 64-bit.) (I also got the sources and compiled > BerkeleyDB 4.6) 2.2.8? The latest release is 2.4.11. Try starting slapd with slapd -d -1 to see why it is unhappy. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration
