LDAP service doesn't start

Hi there,

We are using OpenLDAP 2.2.29 (the full name of the setup is "openldap-2.2.29-db-4.3.29-openssl-0.9.8a-win32_Setup.exe") for a large number of Windows 2000 oses with service pack 4.

Often, it happens that the openldap service doesn't start and in the event log i can see the error code "21". Right now i can solve the problem reinstalling openldap and it works but i would like to know the cause of the problem (if any) and if there is another way to solve it.

Maybe it is a dumb question but is it possible to retrieve the dump of ldap if the service doesn't start ?

Thanks for any help, Emanuele Gesuato
