I am running 2.4.36 with mdb and have discovered an interesting behavior that may be a bug but wanted some input before I opened an ITS. I can upgrade to .38 and verify the behavior if needed. I have a third party application that defines the following custom attribute: olcAttributeTypes: ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.8241.1.15 NAME 'ctscPropertyKeywords' EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 ) I have recently added the following index to the database for this application: olcDbIndex: ctscPropertyKeywords pres,eq When I run a search using objectclass as a filter I see 17 records that contain the value "Exportable" for ctscPropertyKeywords. When I repeat the search using (ctscPropertyKeywords=Exportable) as the filter I only get back 9 records even though the value is present in 17 records. I have included examples of my searches and the results below. I have run slapindex on this database several times since the new index was added using: /appl/openldap/sbin/slapindex -v -F /appl/openldap/etc/openldap/slapd.d -b "dc=global,dc=aep,dc=com" I have also restarted slapd several times just for grins. The behavior has not changed. I have discovered that the 9 records I see have been modified since the index was created and the missing 8 records existed before the index was created. Modifying a record causes the index to get updated and adds the record to the results of my second search but re-indexing the database using slapindex does not. Any thoughts? Here are my sample searches and their output. /appl/openldap/bin/ldapsearch -H "ldap://localhost:389" -x -D {removed} -y {removed} -s sub -b 'dc=Global,dc=aep,dc=com' '(objectClass=ctscPropertyDefinition)' objectClass ctscPropertyKeywords #
