Hello, I'm looking for help with an index building problem. I am running Apple (Tiger) Open Directory which uses slapd 2.2.19. Upgrading is unfortunately not an option because the OS has tools / GUI built around the database. I had noticed some errors in our slapd.log indicating we needed additional indexes built:
bdb_equality_candidates: (kerio-Mail-AccountEnabled) index_param failed (18)\n bdb_equality_candidates: (kerio-Mail-Address) index_param failed (18)\n bdb_substring_candidates: (apple-group-realname) index_param failed (18)\n bdb_substring_candidates: (givenName) index_param failed (18)\n bdb_substring_candidates: (mail) index_param failed (18)\n
So I attempted to create the missing indexes, but slapindex crashes with a segmentation fault unless I disable most of my config changes. The lines commented out are the ones which caused a fault:
slapd.conf:
include /etc/openldap/slapd_macosxserver.conf #index kerio-Mail-Address eq # Seg faults. index kerio-Mail-AccountEnabled eq
slapd_macosxserver.conf (included via slapd.conf):
# Adding ",sub" to apple-group-realname, due to errors in /var/log/slapd.log #index apple-group-realname eq index apple-group-realname eq,sub [...] # Adding mail & givenName indices, due to errors in /var/log/slapd.log # Both of these cause seg fault on slapindex #index mail sub #index givenName sub
I verified that the index names I configured match exactly the spelling in the error messages. Also slaptest ran successfully. I ran db_recover to no avail (slapindex was initially hanging even if I just used my base configuration).
Any hints would be greatly appreciated. I realize this is an older version, but hopefully there are some tricks that I could use to work around it? If not, could I install the current openldap, in a different location, build the indexes, and copy them over?

Bugs with opendirectory should be filed with Apple, as they massively hack the OpenLDAP software.
