Hi!
While setting up an OpenLDAP-2.5-based MMR configuration I had set up the
master node, then dumped the config database, copied the LDIF to the other node.
However when starting slapd, it failed with the message
slapd[2734]: config error processing olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config:
<olcMultiProvider> database is not a shadow
See also https://stackoverflow.com/q/6792212/6607497
The context of olcMultiProvider is:
dn: olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config
objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig
olcDatabase: {0}config
...
olcMultiProvider: TRUE
On the first node I had updated the config using this LDIF:
dn: olcDatabase=${db},cn=config
changetype: modify
delete: olcMirrorMode
olcMirrorMode: TRUE
-
add: olcMultiProvider
olcMultiProvider: TRUE
So I don't understand why this won't work on the second node. Specifically I
can restart the first node without an issue.
The only difference is that the primary node has a patch against crashing on an
invalid olcAuthzRegexp (I had reported).
Well can anybody explain what this message means?
Update: Reading
https://www.openldap.com/lists/openldap-technical/201807/msg00051.html ("Do you
have a unique olcServerID set in cn=config for both masters")I realized that I
forgot to specify "-S SID" for slapadd. Unfortunately even after using option
-S, the error message remains the same.
Kind regards,
