I upgrade to Slackware 12 this weekend and now openldap won't start. A google search didn't help me. I'm running 2.3.27.
I can restore from backup, just want to make sure that's necessary and maybe I can learn something in the process.
Errors from the tail end of ldap.log:
bdb(dc=gmartin,dc=org): unable to allocate memory for mutex; resize mutex region bdb_db_open: Database cannot be opened, err 12. Restore from backup! ====> bdb_cache_release_all bdb(dc=gmartin,dc=org): DB_ENV->lock_id_free interface requires an environment configured for the locking subsystem bdb(dc=gmartin,dc=org): txn_checkpoint interface requires an environment configured for the transaction subsystem bdb_db_close: txn_checkpoint failed: Invalid argument (22)
Looks like Berkeley DB got upgraded, so your data was made with a previous version.
If you've got a slapcat ldif in backend, re-create it in the new env.
