The assert **should** always be valid. Its execution indicates that there's an error somewhere else. Does this happen when binding as the rootdn of the back-meta instance, or as a regular user? If it occurs when binding as the rootdn, then I think I know where the problem is. In that case, apart from me fixing the problem (working at it...), you should also use "pseudoroot-bind-defer yes". p. Ing.

(ITS#5185) assertion failure in back-meta when the remote directory does not answer a bind request within the time allotted
by mhardin＠symas.com 12 Oct '07

12 Oct '07

Full_Name: Matthew Hardin Version: 2.3.38 OS: RHEL4 URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (74.38.114.43) Remote directory servers that do not answer a bind request within the timeout period will cause an assertion failure in back-meta. Analysis: The meta_back_bind() function calls either meta_back_proxy_authz_bind() if the bind is taking place with back_meta's rootdn or meta_back_single_bind() if it's not. Once they make the appropriate bind function call, each of these functions calls meta_back_bind_op_result() to process the result of the bind. Neither meta_back_proxy_authz_bind() or meta_back_single_bind() set the LDAP_BACK_CONN_BINDING state. When meta_back_bind_op_result() calls ldap_result(), one of the possible return codes is 0, and meta_back_bind_op_result() will repeat the ldap_result() call, provided the timeout hasn't been exceeded or back-meta has been told not to retry. If the wait time has been exceeded the code falls through to an assert(LDAP_BACK_CONN_BINDING(msc)) statement. This assert is only valid when meta_back_do_bind() has made the function call, and it will fail if either meta_back_proxy_authz_bind() or meta_back_single_bind() made the function call. Possible Fixes: The correct fix would seem to be to remove the assert(), since in two out of three cases the meta_back_bind_op_result() function is being called with the LDAP_BACK_CONN_BINDING state not set. It is also possible to set and clear the LDAP_BACK_CONN_BINDING state as appropriate from the other two funcions that call it, but this seems incorrect, as the LDAP_BACK_CONN_BINDING state is only manipulated in the meta_back_single_dobind() direct bind function.

Did you fail to note how OpenLDAP's configure specifically is designed to abort when building against BDB 4.3? BDB 4.3 is known to be a bad release. I suggest using 4.2.52+patchs, 4.4+patches, or 4.5+patches. Not that this necessarily will resolve the issue you are reporting. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

(ITS#5183) Index problem with ;x- attributes.
by Magnus.Jonsson＠umdac.umu.se 11 Oct '07

11 Oct '07

Full_Name: Magnus Jonsson Version: 2.3.38 OS: Debian GNU/linux Etch URL: http://foo.fot.nu/reproduce.txt Submission from: (NULL) (130.239.200.171) We are using ;x- attributes in a specific appliation to group some attributes. When removing a ;x- attrbute all the indexs for that attribute disapears. example: cn: index cn;x-f-1: index cn;x-f-2: index If a remove the cn;x-f-1 attribute I can't search for (cn=index) anymore. I have tested with bdb and ldbm. Berkeley v4.3 is used. A small example with all you need to reproduce the symtoms is available in the provided link.

It does no caching or indexing, so it will perform very poorly in general. It was only written to provide a base for cn=config. -- -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/

Pierangelo, > This output is not useful. I'm sorry. > First of all, can you tell what ldapadd you're using?

I can confirm that ldapadd was built alongside slapd whose version I stated in my original post (2.3.35). As I'm not at home at the moment, the only thing I can do is extract the syslog of that import in question which admittedly doesn't say much, however, here it goes: Oct 10 02:16:19 mm slapd[9746]: slapd starting Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 fd=8 ACCEPT from IP=192.168.0.3:40394 (IP =0.0.0.0:389) Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=0 BIND dn="cn=root,dc=somedomain,dc=or g" method=128 Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: failed to open file "/var/lib/openldap-data/dc=s omedomain,dc=org/cn=root.ldif": No such file or directory Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=0 BIND dn="cn=root,dc=somedomain,dc=or g" mech=SIMPLE ssf=0 Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=0 text= Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=1 ADD dn="dc=somedomain,dc=org" Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=1 RESULT tag=105 err=0 text= Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=2 ADD dn="ou=My address book,dc=somedo main,dc=org" Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=2 RESULT tag=105 err=0 text= Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=3 ADD dn="cn=With/Slash,ou=My address book,dc=somedomain,dc=org" Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=3 RESULT tag=105 err=32 text=Parent do es not exist Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 op=4 UNBIND Oct 10 02:16:31 mm slapd[9746]: conn=0 fd=8 closed Raphael, > My new crystal ball tells me that you are not saying the > essential part of the problem: you are using back-ldif, isn't > it ?

Well, if Raphael's analysis is correct (in that case, can I borrow your crystal ball, occasionally?), the problem is now fixed in HEAD/re24/re23. Please test. p. Ing.
