Problem: For a customer we use LDAP for many years. Last year suddenly the slapd service just stopped without any traces in the logfiles. After a restart of slapd everything works fine again. But the problem was there: it was not an incident, now and then slapd just stops and always without any traces in the logfiles. Sometime three times a day, sometime a week without a failure. I can't find a pattern or any relation to any other service on the linux server.
Environment: - Several (debian squeeze) servers , several windows servers. We use bdb database backend. - There is one master LDAP server which provides syncprov and two replica's LDAP servers (syncrepl). The master server is most intens used (mainly samba as primary domain controller: a few hundred useraccounts, lot of groupaccounts, workstations, acl's, etc.), one of the replica's is not very busy but handles the mail for all users (lookup: amavis, postfix, courier-imap, mailaccount settings etc). The third replica is not busy at all, it is a remote location. - Total LDAP is 3700 dn's, slapcat produces a file of 7,3 Mb. - It is only the master LDAP with stops suddenly. I have never seen a failure of a replica LDAP.
Because I have no clear idea about the problem I have no idea which technical details are relevant: DB_CONFIG =========== set_cachesize 0 10485760 1 set_lk_max_objects 10000 set_lk_max_locks 10000 set_lk_max_lockers 10000 set_lg_dir /home/ldap-dbd The database is stored on a ext3 filesystem, kernel 2.6.32. The server has no problems, plenty of memory and a fast diskarray (SAS->SATA). Never technical problems with this server. And it worked without problems for a long period. Nothing has changed to the environment or the LDAP setup (except of course with the upgrade to debian squeeze but the problem was already there).
What we have tried: - upgrade from openldap 2..4.17 (debian lenny+backports) to openldap 2.4.23 (debian squeeze). I saw in the release notes that problems related to syncrepl were solved. Therefor we waited for version 2.4.23 te become available in debian. This upgrade made no difference. - reindex, rebuilt the directory. When I rebuilt the LDAP with a clean LDIF file on the master LDAP or an other machine with ldapadd there is not one error or warning.
The workaround for the moment: I have written a process monitor (perl daemon) which monitors the slapd daemon and if it suddenly stops, slapd is restarted. It is of course not a solution but the 300 user can work. If slapd stops without a restart within 1 minute a few hundred people can't work because samba stops working.
I would like to receive suggestions what we can do to find the problem. Because there is no pattern, nothing in the logfiles I don't know where to start.
Sorry, I overlooked this info:
"The server has no problems, plenty of memory and a fast diskarray (SAS->SATA). Never technical problems with this server. And it worked without problems for a long period."
Which tells us that your system is on a metal box. I am afraid you 've got a hardware problem of some sort. I advise you to start checking all hardware components (or just replace the box).

Attach to the running slapd with gdb, type handle all nostop continue and let it run. If there's a crash you'll see what happened in gdb.

I tried it but I don't get this working. I have no experience with gdb. I assume I do something wrong.
Normally slapd daemon runs like this on a test machine /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g openldap -u openldap -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l local5
If I try this running attached to gdb: su openldap -s /bin/bash gdb --args /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g openldap -u openldap -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l local5 GNU gdb (GDB) 7.0.1-debian ....

At this point I have no idea what to do.

May be it's agood idea to install the slapd package with debug infos.
aptitude search slapd i slapd - OpenLDAP server (slapd) p slapd-dbg - Debugging information for the OpenLDAP server
Sorry, I think I found a way to start slapd with gdb. The main mistake I made was using uid openldap. It should be run as root. # gdb -q -x /root/gdb.init --args /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g openldap -u openldap -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l local5
gdb.init: handle all nostop run quit
This way I can modify the start-stop script. With a restart there is no need for user intervention.
Now it runs and functions. I assume this is the way Howard Chu suggests. Let's wait and see what happens.

I am pretty sure, that you should not switch to the openldap user. Run it as root.

No. I did not say to start slapd using gdb. I said to attach gdb to the running slapd, which means slapd should already be started, using whatever method you normally use to start it.
What you've done will accomplish nothing.

"Attach to" normally means, with an existing process you want to debug, provide the relevant option and the pid number of the process, so the debugging command starts debugging the existing process.
For example, searching for 'attach' in the gdb man page indicates this ...

This is the first time I saw a SIGABRT. All other times nothing but SIGPIPE or sometimes a SIGTERM. As you can see slapd stops late in the night, everybody sleeping, hardly users working.
As I wrote earlier, I use a perl daemon wich checks the process: pid combined with processtable. If the process is gone in the processtable or in defunc or stop state it will restart slapd. This happens within 20 seconds. This way we manage to minimize the impact of the problems with slapd. Perhaps the SIGTERM is the result of the processmonitor. If that is the case it must be the result of a defunct or stop condition in the process table. But we can't work without this tools to restart slapd as quickly as possible.

I now attached gdb to slapd and get some results:

This is not a crash or any error in slapd; some external command was used to kill the slapd process.
