Hi,

...

I am using openldap 2.4.25 and configured location of pidfile and argsfile in slapd.conf. However, when running slapd its not creating pid file or args file. On searching for this issue I found the bug reported earlier stating similar problem. Is that fixed or do I need to do some other configuration.

It works for me. Perhaps slapd can't write to the location you specified.

I am running it as root. And found out that if I CD into libexec directory and run slapd from there it all works. However if I run it like

/opt/openldap-2.4.25/libexec/slapd

no .pid or .args get created. And I am giving absolute path for pidFile and argsFile in slapd.conf

Thanks
