Re: openldap MMR "read_config: no serverID / URL match found"

I tried this , however unfortunately did not help in my case. I am still trying to figure out through some hit and trial and am sure this would be something silly as I have almost followed everything per the documentation.

Will post back if I find something.. Hopefully I will :)

Thank you for validating my complaint.

The trick to this is "string matching", not putting the same name in both places. I have played around with several different configs and finally got it working. I think the trailing slashes were what got things working for me. I am not in front of my setup right now, but will reply later today when I am.

    I am using openldap 2.4.39 version and trying to set up multi

    MirrorMode      on



    I have put the below entries in /etc/default/slap


    on server 1
    SLAPD_SERVICES="ldapi:// ldap://ldap1-test.com"


    and server 2
    SLAPD_SERVICES="ldapi:// ldap://ldap2-test.com"



    After this I am not able to start the service and when I do a
    slapd -d sync , I get the error "read_config: no serverID /
    URL match found"



    I have seen a similar issue posted in an earlier thread but
    could not find a solution.



    Thanks,

an ldapsearch shows these lines (note, no quotes around the ldap URL):

olcServerID: 1 ldap://192.168.88.1 olcServerID: 2 ldap://192.168.88.2

i am running fedora 20, and /etc/sysconfig/slapd has the line:

SLAPD_URLS="ldapi:/// ldap://192.168.88.1"

the undocumented nature of this causes a lot of consternation, but strangely there is no one else offering insight to this. Thus, we are left to our wild @$$ guessing.

i believe the quotes in your config are why the string matching is failing. try removing the quotes, so that your lines are:

ServerID 1 ldap://ldap1-test.com ServerID 2 ldap://ldap2-test.com

if that does not work, you will need to iterate through trial and error until you find a working config. because i have a dependency on LDAP for bind/named to work, i use IPs in my configs. if your DNS is done elsewhere and you dont have the dependency i have, you should be able to get things working.
