Hello,
I apologize if I am posting to the wrong mailing list.
I have a simple problem, which I am sure any OpenLDAP administrator can easily solve... I am not an administrator, however. Hence being unable to answer this trivial question presents a real problem. I am stuck. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to add Virtual List View support to an OpenLDAP server on hosted Ubuntu. The distro version is Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS. The OpenLDAP server is already running. I receive responses to basic commands, but VLV is not working. When I run the version command, I get:
vq@vq-HVM-domU:~$ slapd -VV @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd (Ubuntu) (Mar 17 2014 21:20:08) $ buildd@aatxe:/build/buildd/openldap-2.4.31/debian/build/servers/slapd
I added the following lines to the slapd.conf file (located for some reason in a funky place /usr/share/slapd/slapd.conf )
moduleload sssvlv.so overlay sssvlv
My path seems to be OK: modulepath /usr/lib/ldap
The dynamic library appears to be in the right place as well:
vq@vq-HVM-domU:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/ldap/sssvlv.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Mar 17 2014 /usr/lib/ldap/sssvlv.so -> sssvlv-2.4.so.2.8.3
vq@vq-HVM-domU:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/ldap/sssvlv-2.4.so.2.8.3 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26872 Mar 17 2014 /usr/lib/ldap/sssvlv-2.4.so.2.8.3
I cut out a piece of dmesg, just in case:
[ 0.000000] Linux version 3.13.0-32-generic (buildd@kissel) (gcc version 4.8. 2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) ) #57-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 03:51:08 UTC 2014 (Ubuntu 3.13.0-32.57-generic 3.13.11.4)
I tried to figure out how to see what OpenLDAP modules are loaded, but did not find the appropriate documentation, at least quickly. Sorry again. I am sure the list subscribers where where to look. I unfortunately do not.
There is no slapd-config executable on this system. Hence, I am assuming that slapd.conf is being used.
Please advise what I am missing and/or doing wrong. Any suggestions are welcome
If this is a totally wrong place to ask, please direct me to an appropriate resource. The server fault forums did not produce immediate results.
Thank you,
Igor Shmukler
