Hi all,
I'm seeing an issue with setting the rootpw for the cn=monitor database and syncrepl replication (multi-master syncrepl).
I am seeing this problem with openldap 2.4.31 at the moment, but I intend to upgrade to 2.4.34 when that becomes available.
When I just have one LDAP server (ldap1 say), I can set the olcrootdn to cn=monitor and set the olcrootpw without any error, so I have something like:
dn: olcDatabase={2}monitor,cn=config objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig olcDatabase: {2}monitor olcAddContentAcl: FALSE olcLastMod: TRUE olcMaxDerefDepth: 15 olcReadOnly: FALSE olcSyncUseSubentry: FALSE olcMonitoring: FALSE olcRootPW: {SSHA}************** olcRootDN: cn=monitor
When I create another LDAP server (ldap2 say) and set up multi-master syncrepl replication for cn=config between ldap1 and ldap2 I see an error in the slapd log on ldap2 like:
olcRootPW: value #0: <olcRootPW> can only be set when rootdn is under suffix
Works for me. The error you post occurs when using slapd.conf and setting rootpw before rootdn; when using slapd-config it should never happen because olcRootPW is listed *after* olcRootDN in olcDatabaseConfig, thus processing should always occur in the right order.
No olcSuffix is set for the cn=monitor database in the cn=config, but all the cn=monitor DNs are of the form cn=X,cn=Y,...,cn=monitor, so it seems that the suffix of the cn=monitor database is effectively cn=monitor.
The suffix of cn=monitor is indeed cn=monitor, and is hardcoded.
