Hi All,
I was trying to compile openldap 2.4.x and I was surprised because this
version _requires_ BDB version 4.4. I am installing it in a Red Hat AS 4 up7
machine and RedHat has only version BDB 4.3 available to download.
Is there any doc on OpenLDAP site regarding upgrading BDB, from 4.2.x to
4.4.x ?
Is there any problem running openldap 4.4.x using BDB 4.2 ?
Tanhks in advance

We stated it pretty clearly in the README.
I am installing it in a Red Hat AS 4
up7 machine and RedHat has only version BDB 4.3 available to download.

4.4.x ?
It is the same procedure as any other database upgrade, already documented in
the Admin Guide and the FAQ-o-Matic.

There is no OpenLDAP 4.4.x.
OpenLDAP 2.4.12 and newer will not work with BDB 4.2. BDB 4.3 was never
supported in any OpenLDAP version because BDB 4.3 had several fatal bugs. The
software versions provided in RedHat AS4 are known to be unsafe for use; get
current source code and compile it yourself or get packages from someone who
actually supports what they provide. (E.g., www.symas.com...)

Hi Buchan,
You may not be aware, but the sample .repo file you provide in the
repository does not work anymore, at least under CentOS 5.3. Yum does
not like the repository ID "[OpenLDAP - Buchan Milne]" and complains
"Bad id for repo: OpenLDAP - Buchan Milne, byte = 8". Changing the
ID to a simple one word ID like "[openldap]" solves the issue for me.
This is a recent issue, the .repo file has worked for me for ages. Yum
must have changed in some way.

Thanks. I have changed the repo file. I guess it doesn't like spaces now ...
