Hi Scott,<br><br>on my SLES11 Box the logfiles are written into /var/log/messages.<br>That seems to be the default on my box, but could differ on yours.<br><br>You can set higher and lower loglevel with doubled numbers, i.e. slapd &quot;-d -256&quot; could be a good idea see some usable stuff. :)<br>

<br>Bye.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 3, 2010 at 15:13,  <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:sgmayo@mail.bloomfield.k12.mo.us">sgmayo@mail.bloomfield.k12.mo.us</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

One of my teachers decided to move things around and plugged a network<br>
cable in the wrong place causing a network loop and it seems to have ended<br>
up corrupting my ldap database.<br>
<br>
Where are the log files from slapd at and/or how do I read them?<br>
<br>
I did a &#39;slapd -d -1&#39; and the pages just keep flying by and never stop<br>
without a ctrl-c.  I have run a slapd_db_recover on this Fedora 10 box,<br>
but that did not seem to fix the problem I guess.<br>
<br>
I did slapcat the directory to an ldif file yesterday, but I am wondering<br>
if it did not already contain some bad data.  I may see if I can slapadd<br>
it back in if ldap does not have to be running.  If it does then I will<br>
have to do something else.<br>
<br>
Thanks for any info.  Took me 7 hours to track down the intermittent<br>
problems yesterday since it seemed to be server problems and now I am<br>
starting out again on the same track it seems.<br>
