I am running OpenLDAP on a FreeBSD-10 amd 64 machine. It is installed via the FreeBSD ports system and I compile it on my machine.
I recently wanted to switch from BDB since versions greater than 6 are not acceptable to OpenLDAP. I wanted to use "mdb", but I just cannot seem to get it configured correctly.
I changed the "database bdb" to "database mdb" but when I try to start openLDAP, I get this error:
Starting slapd Unrecognized database type (mdb) Warning: failed to start slapd
I removed the existing database, so it should be starting up with a clean environment, but the problem continues.
This is probably a problem specific to FreeBSD. If any user of FreeBSD has this working, I would love to see how they configured it. Feel free to contact me off list if it is more convenient.
Probably OpenLDAP has not been built with static back-mdb but with back-mdb module. You may check with ./slapd -VVV, this will show all built-in modules.
This is the output:
@(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.40 (Oct 28 2014 06:27:00) $ gerard@scorpio.seibercom.net:/usr/ports/net/openldap24-server/work/openldap-2.4.40/servers/slapd
Included static overlays: syncprov Included static backends: config ldif relay
Remembering that this is a FreeBSD-10 system, what should I do? This is the configuration of the port:
/usr/ports/net/openldap24-server $ make showconfig ===> The following configuration options are available for openldap-server-2.4.40: ACCESSLOG=off: With In-Directory Access Logging overlay ACI=off: Per-object ACI (experimental) AUDITLOG=off: With Audit Logging overlay BDB=on: With BerkeleyDB backend (DEPRECATED) COLLECT=off: With Collect overy Services overlay CONSTRAINT=off: With Attribute Constraint overlay DDS=off: With Dynamic Directory Services overlay DEREF=off: With Dereference overlay DNSSRV=off: With Dnssrv backend DYNACL=off: Run-time loadable ACL (experimental) DYNAMIC_BACKENDS=on: Build dynamic backends DYNGROUP=off: With Dynamic Group overlay DYNLIST=off: With Dynamic List overlay FETCH=off: Enable fetch(3) support GSSAPI=off: With GSSAPI support (implies SASL support) MDB=on: With Memory-Mapped DB backend MEMBEROF=off: With Reverse Group Membership overlay ODBC=off: With SQL backend PASSWD=off: With Passwd backend PERL=off: With Perl backend PPOLICY=off: With Password Policy overlay PROXYCACHE=off: With Proxy Cache overlay REFINT=off: With Referential Integrity overlay RELAY=off: With Relay backend RETCODE=off: With Return Code testing overlay RLOOKUPS=off: With reverse lookups of client hostnames RWM=off: With Rewrite/Remap overlay SASL=off: With (Cyrus) SASL2 support SEQMOD=off: With Sequential Modify overlay SHA2=off: With SHA2 Password hashes overlay SHELL=off: With Shell backend (disables threading) SLAPI=off: With Netscape SLAPI plugin API (experimental) SLP=off: With SLPv2 (RFC 2608) support SMBPWD=off: With Samba Password hashes overlay SOCK=off: With Sock backend SSSVLV=off: With ServerSideSort/VLV overlay SYNCPROV=on: With Syncrepl Provider overlay TCP_WRAPPERS=off: With tcp wrapper support TRANSLUCENT=off: With Translucent Proxy overlay UNIQUE=off: With attribute Uniqueness overlay VALSORT=off: With Value Sorting overlay ===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
What other information could I provide to help track this problem down?
