I'm running openldap 2.4.9 (Ubuntu 8.04.3) in a N-way multimaster setup with two masters and two slaves.
Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
I'd suggest you upgrade to the latest stable release (2.4.19).
I would have, if that version was provided by the distribution maintainers. However, it is not. Using a selv-maintained package, or even worse, building software directly on our production environment is not a very viable solution. Anyone with more than some experience in systems administration will tell you the same thing.
However, I resolved the issue. The bug does not manifest itself when using schemachecking=on for replication between the masters as well as between the masters and the slaves. Default in 2.4.9 is schemachecking=off, and that simply does not work well at all. I don't know what's the default in later versions.
So, after a few LDIF exports of the broken objects, and then importing them in again, the directory seems to be in good shape.
Kind regards
