I want to update my OpenLDAP to 2.3.39 on my Sun Solaris 10
last year I installed OpenLDAP 2.3.32 without problem.
All software requirements as specified in the README file are met
(default prefix /usr/local used)
# ./configure
# make
# make depend
# make
# make test
# make install
all succeed
but $ /usr/local/bin/ldapsearch
answers:
Killed
on the other hand, if I use the ldapsearch binary from my
openldap-2.3.39 build directory:
# ./clients/tools/ldapsearch
succeeds and I can perform a search on my LDAP database returning the
correct results..
I noticed a big difference in size between:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 457772 Apr 28 09:02 ./clients/tools/ldapsearch
and
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1023664 Apr 28 09:27 /usr/local/bin/ldapsearch
All the clients tools have that same size difference between the compiled
versions in ./openldap-2.3.39/clients/tools/ldap* and the ones in
/usr/local/bin/ldap*
I also noted (from my notes of last year), that the installed versions
of the 2.3.32 did not have such size differences...
What changed in make install between 2.3.32 and 2.3.39 and how to fix
this?

What does it print before "Killed"? I can't think of how to coerce that,
and only that, out of a binary. It is a binary, right? (elfdump and/or
file?)
My guess would be that something in your build environment changed. The
fact that your binaries are in /usr/local without setting an RPATH is
pretty suspect, for one thing -- I'd assume you put your libs in
/usr/local/lib.
If it's really not printing anything other than "Killed," you'll need
another tool to get observability. ldd comes to mind as a first step.

Sounds like the 'strip' program that you're using is broken. What's the
output of "which strip"? If it's _not_ /usr/ccs/bin/strip, then try
moving /usr/ccs/bin to the front of your path and redo the install. If
that fixes it, then REMOVE the broken strip program.

Hi Philip,
You where quite right! the /usr/local/bin/strip program is to blame...
I have both /usr/local/bin and /usr/css/bin in my $PATH (and in that
order).
I renamed /usr/local/bin/strip to /usr/local/bin/strip.broken
so that "which strip" now finds /usr/css/bin/strip
I did the make install again and now all the /usr/local/bin/ldap* binaries
are much smaller (sizes as I would expect),
and /usr/local/bin/ldapsearch now does exactly what I want...
I see from my documentation that my /usr/local/bin/strip comes from
installing GNU binutils, version 2.17, which i installed Apr 18 2007,
just 2 days after I installed my previous openldap (version 2.3.32)
/usr/local/bin/strip although has the same date and bytesize now as it
had a year ago (I record files changed in /usr/local directories after
installing new packages)
(and my $PATH also did not change in the last year, /usr/local/bin
always was before /usr/css/bin..)
I have many other software installed after GNU binutils, never had that
problem ... ... quite strange ..
Never thought a GNU distributed set of tools could contain a broken
program ... ??!?

That begs the question of why you installed GNU binutils. If the problem
you installed them to solve was of a limited scope, you should consider
only installing them into a non-standard directory so that they don't get
used by default.

Note Solaris has sometimes Sun's LDAP tools/libs pre-installed. Are you
sure that this particular executable is not the Sun command-line tool?
Are you sure there's no library mix regarding libldap.so?
I noticed a big difference in size between:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 457772 Apr 28 09:02 ./clients/tools/ldapsearch
and
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1023664 Apr 28 09:27 /usr/local/bin/ldapsearch
Well, sizes always can differ because during 'make install' the tool
strip is used (if not specified otherwise). But the size of the
installed programs should be *smaller* than the one in the source directory.
What changed in make install between 2.3.32 and 2.3.39 and how to fix
this?
Are you sure that you did the *very* same build? I vaguely remember I
had to fix various env vars and linker options when building on Solaris.
Ciao, Michael.
