OpenLDAP 2.4.20 does not have this problem. I compared the olcDatabase={0}config.ldif and olcDatabase={1}hdb.ldif files between 2.4.20 and 2.4.21 and noticed that the olcSyncrepl attribute value from 2.4.21 contains a uri="" whereas the olcSyncrepl attribute from 2.4.20 (working version) does not.

Is there a workaround for this that will allow me to use 2.4.21 or should I stick with 2.4.20?

Thanks,
Hung.

Hello everyone,

Has anyone experienced the "<olcSyncrepl> invalid URL" error from starting up a consumer slapd? I've tried configuring the provider setting for the syncrepl directive as a domain name and IP address but neither works.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Here's the error from slapd:

olcSyncrepl: value #0: <olcSyncrepl> invalid URL
config error processing olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config: <olcSyncrepl> invalid URL

Here's my consumer slapd.conf:

include        /opt/openldap-2.4.21/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include        /opt/openldap-2.4.21/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema

I finally got syncrepl working by starting the consumer slapd with slapd.conf rather than cn=config. What am I missing to get syncrepl to work with cn=config?

Additional info from consumer's ldap.log when starting slapd with cn=config:

Jan 16 10:48:15 localhost slapd[4176]: olcSyncrepl: value #0: <olcSyncrepl> invalid URL
