hello everybody,

I'm quite new to OpenLdap. Actually i've been using it for a few years, but I have no deep knowlege.
The problem I'm facing is my cosumer replicas are segfaulting.
My design:
I have one master with several o=BranchX,dc=example,dc=com This is provider.
I have several (the number is X-1) replicas, consumers.
All consumers are replicating its branch o=BranchX,dc=example,dc=com and one common branch o=BranchMain,dc=example,dc=com.
The picture is  like this:

Provider
o=BranchMain,dc=example,dc=com
o=Branch1,dc=example,dc=com
o=Branch2,dc=example,dc=com
.....
o=BranchX,dc=example,dc=com

Consumer 1:
o=BranchMain,dc=example,dc=com
o=Branch1,dc=example,dc=com

Consumer 2:
o=BranchMain,dc=example,dc=com
o=Branch2,dc=example,dc=com

At the begining I had one consumer, which was segfaultin just randomly once or twice a day. I decided to comment out my syncrepl directives in conf file and now it is running for a day and half. I should mention, that after cosumer segfaults I cannot start slapd any more. The only solution I have is to delete ol /var/lib/ldap (all database) directory contents and then restarting slapd. If restarting slapd on the old database - segfaulti is happening.

Since this was a smaill branch and only one branch I thought to debug the problem later. Today I faced the same situation on a biger consumer. The same situation. slapd just crashed and only deleting database helped me to start it again.

My systems are Mandriva 2008.1 with slapd version:
@(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.8 (Mar 23 2008 16:49:39) $
        mandrake@klodia.mandriva.com:/home/mandrake/rpm/BUILD/openldap-2.4.8/servers/slapd

I have one branch runing old slapd versions (the ones comming with Mandriva 2007.0), but they seem to work except that I can have replicated only one branch (one rid). Seems old slapd doesn't support several rids.

Can anybody help me to debug this situation? This configuration is rather new but I was thinking to build all infrastructure on such a configuration, so segfaulting is very big issue.
