slapd failing to start after update

2013-08-24 Thread Carmel
I ran portupgrade last night to upgrade my ports. It upgraded both
openldap24-server and openldap24-client. Now, the server refuses to
start. Upon reboot, I get this message: slapd failed to start. I went
to the rc.d directory and tried to start it manually, but that failed
also.

I do not know where the log file, if one even exists, is so I might be
able to find out what the problem is. I tried to manually deinstall and
reinstall both ports and it went off without a hitch so I assume that
they are properly installed.

Never mind, I found the problem. For the second time in the past
several months, the database had become corrupt when I updated it via
portupgrade. I discovered it when I ran this command:

/usr/local/libexec/slapd -Tt

I guess it was a good thing that I had a recent backup.
