[Creating an ITS issue of the email thread with the same subject]

I've been battling some issues with syncrepl for a while now, and I can't quite figure out what has gone wrong.

I initially found http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200812/msg00040.html which seemed to describe my issue, and it recommended upgrading to openldap 2.4.13. I tried that, and am still having issues (now at 2.4.15). I built the software for ubuntu hardy on i386, available at https://edge.launchpad.net/~compbrain/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/566951/+listin...

The situation involves a master with 3 slaves using syncrepl. A change comes into the master adding a member to a nisNetgroup/groupOfNames hybrid container:

dn: cn=friends,ou=netgroup,dc=example,dc=com objectClass: groupOfNames objectClass: nisNetgroup objectClass: top cn: friends member: uid=bobby,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com nisNetgroupTriple: (,bobby,shadow)

An incoming add for user james looks like

dn: cn=friends,ou=netgroup,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modify delete: member - add: member member: uid=bobby,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com member: uid=james,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com - delete: nisNetgroupTriple - add: nisNetgroupTriple nisNetgroupTriple: (,bobby,shadow) nisNetgroupTriple: (,james,shadow)

Up until this point, everything is fine -- all changes made on the master have replicated ok to the slaves.

Now, james is not my friend anymore, so he gets removed from the container: dn: cn=friends,ou=netgroup,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modify delete: member - add: member member: uid=bobby,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com - delete: nisNetgroupTriple - add: nisNetgroupTriple nisNetgroupTriple: (,bobby,shadow)

At this point, the most recent change gets applied to the master ok, but it does not get replicated to the slaves. They have a be_modify failed in their logs: Apr 13 23:05:43 sl1 slapd[30277]: syncrepl_entry: rid=049 be_search (0) Apr 13 23:05:43 sl1 slapd[30277]: syncrepl_entry: rid=049 cn=friends,ou=netgroup,dc=example,dc=com Apr 13 23:05:43 sl1 slapd[30277]: null_callback : error code 0x12 Apr 13 23:05:43 sl1 slapd[30277]: syncrepl_entry: rid=049 be_modify (18) Apr 13 23:05:43 sl1 slapd[30277]: syncrepl_entry: rid=049 be_modify failed
