Buchan,
Thanks for these, I saw your email yesterday in reply to another thread so took them then :-)
I've started an upgrade process by doing the following:
shutdown ldap slapcat -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf -b "dc=ldn,dc=sw,dc=com" -l /export/home/stuart/full_msldap01.ldif removed all files from /var/lib/ldap except DB_CONFIG file.
I would rather keep them, and use a version-specific directory path in the slapd.conf.
I couldn't remove the ldap 2.3 version packages as they're dependencies are mad,
No, most likely you have some packages that depend on libldap-2.3.so.0 (have been linked to it). This is precisely the reason I make the packages install in parallel.
so left them in place and did an Install of the 2.4 packages. lib64ldap2.4_2-2.4.22-1.el5.x86_64.rpm, openldap2.4-2.4.22-1.el5.x86_64.rpm, libldap2.4_2-2.4.22-1.el5.i386.rpm, openldap2.4-2.4.22-1.el5.i386.rpm, openldap2.4-clients-2.4.22-1.el5.x86_64.rpm, openldap2.4-servers-2.4.22-1.el5.x86_64.rpm, unixODBC-2.2.11-7.1.x86_64.rpm, openldap2.4-extra-schemas-1.3-10.el5.noarch.rpm, openldap2.4-servers-2.4.22-1.el5.x86_64.rpm. updated the /etc/openldap2.4/sladp.conf and slapd.access.conf files to remove unwanted references to SAMBA, change domain, passwd etc. Ran the service ldap check until it was OK. Trying to re-load the ldif gave me some errors though:
slapadd -f /etc/openldap2.4/slapd.conf -l /export/home/stuart/full_msldap01.ldif /usr/share/openldap2.4/schema/core.schema: line 100: AttributeType inappropriate SUPerior: "c"
Did you over-write schema files from 2.4 with files from your 2.3 installation? The 2.4 schema file has the attribute c on line 100 commented out, as it is most likely built-in.
I found this line and decided to hash it out but then it failed on another Country attribute and another then another in cosine.schema, so have stopped hashing and started typing.
Any reason why this would fail to like the 'c' AttributeType?
Depends what you did to the schema files.
$ rpm -Va openldap2.4-servers
should not show any schema files having been modified ....
