https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9702 Issue ID: 9702 Summary: slapadd is missing -r chroot option Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.7 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: dpa-openldap(a)aegee.org Target Milestone: --- I want to run slapd under chroot with the -r option. In order to initialize the setup, I want to use `slapadd -n0 configuration.ldif`. The configuration file contains mdb databases and these databases have `olcDbDirectory: ` paths. Since slapd will load the databases from the chroot environment, the directory names must be submitted to slapadd to be correct in the chroot environment. This means, that outside the chroot environment the directory paths are not correct. When I call `slapadd -n0 ` I get the error olcDbDirectory: value #0: invalid path: No such file or directory slapadd: could not add entry dn="olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config" (line=909): Closing DB... which means, that slapadd cannot open (outside the chrooted environment) the olcDbDirectory path. Thus slapadd shall first enter the chrooted environment, but it lacks option for this. Probably slapcat will also need this option to dump the databases. The chrooted environment is created specially for openldap, so it contains no tools. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
