Full_Name: Fr.d.ric Goudal Version: 2.4.46 OS: ubuntu 18.14 LTS URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (147.210.204.135)

The global setup is the following : - 1 master ldap (2.4.40) - 1 hidden slave on the master ldap, same suffix, ldap backend - 1 ldap backend on a distant server (2.4.46)

When starting synchronisation the following event are happening : - for some reason the sync process ask for creating dn:uid=foo,ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domaine BEFORE the creation of dn : ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domain

- on the backend the following entries are created in that order - dn:ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domain with the object class glue - dn: uid=foo,ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domain

Than... the sync tries to create ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domain with the correct objectClass : organizationalUnit But, as the object exists on the backend ldap, creation fails, and synchronization stops.

Solution -remove by hand the dn: uid=foo,ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domain, that remove the glue object - create by hand the ou=bar,dc=my,dc=domain

What IMHO slapd should do : - either check that it does not add an object before its parent objects - either convert the glue object to the correct object when the real creation is needed.
