I am trying to get OpenLDAP (2.4.24) working with NSS on Fedora 15. In cn=config.ldif I have:
olcTLSCACertificatePath: /etc/pki/nssdb olcTLSCertificateFile: endoframe
I have used certutil to create a self-signed certificate:
# certutil -d /etc/pki/nssdb -L
Certificate Nickname Trust Attributes SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI
endoframe Cu,Cu,Cu
But this doesn't appear to be working:

slapd was not started with the proper options to listen on ldaps:/// (port 636).
Your -h command line option should include it, e.g. '-h ldap:/// ldaps:///'. See slapd(8) for more details.

Thanks... I did find that and I changed SLAPD_LDAPS to "yes".
Tail –f /var/log/messages Has most of the ldap messages, You also may have a :
/var/log/localmessages
If you are running a client on the server machine, the client info will be mixed in with the server info on /var/log/messages. I believe you will only get the server [slapd] on localmessages
You have to choose either ldap [port 389] with tls, Or Ldaps [port 636]
I am assuming you have a tls_cacert and either a uri with ldap://... Or ldaps:// As appropriate, in /etc/ldap.conf of the client machine.

I don't understand why it's looking for a file here. My impression from reading http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/1514.html is that the cert would be pulled from the database.

That question led me to a bogus setting for TLS_CACERTDIR. First, I tried simply commenting the line out, figuring the value of olcTLSCACertificatePath in cn=config.ldif would be used. That produced this:
# ldapsearch -H ldaps://rail -b dc=endoframe,dc=net -x -d1 ldap_url_parse_ext(ldaps://rail) ldap_create ldap_url_parse_ext(ldaps://rail:636/??base) ldap_sasl_bind ldap_send_initial_request ldap_new_connection 1 1 0 ldap_int_open_connection ldap_connect_to_host: TCP rail:636 ldap_new_socket: 3 ldap_prepare_socket: 3 ldap_connect_to_host: Trying ::1 636 ldap_pvt_connect: fd: 3 tm: -1 async: 0 TLS: error: tlsm_PR_Recv returned 0 - error 21:Is a directory TLS: error: connect - force handshake failure: errno 21 - moznss error -5938 TLS: can't connect: TLS error -5938:Encountered end of file. ldap_err2string ldap_sasl_bind(SIMPLE): Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
So, instead, I set the value of TLS_CACERTDIR to match that of olcTLSCACertificatePath. ldap.conf now looks like this:
# # LDAP Defaults #

That still doesn't do the trick; but it did change the error message:

why don't you simply try
TLS_CACERT /etc/pki/nssdb/<filename>
instead of
TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/pki/nssdb

I saw similar problems to what you are having but it was for openssl and can be fixed by running an openssl command plus some options. In your case it seems the NSS database isn't in the format ldap client expects.

Note that by default, NSS expects to see a certificate database. You need an additional module to enable it to use PEM files.

Never seen that - I have no idea why you would get an EEXIST at this point in the code. I suggest turn on debugging on the server and see what it thinks is happening.

Never seen that - I have no idea why you would get an EEXIST at this point in the code. I suggest turn on debugging on the server and see what it thinks is happening.
There were apparently some selinux issues that accounted for the previous errors. Once those were resolved, the above search yields this from the server (run with -d1):
slap_listener_activate(10): >>> slap_listener(ldaps:///) connection_get(14): got connid=1000 connection_read(14): checking for input on id=1000 TLS: using moznss security dir /etc/pki/nssdb prefix .

So I screwed up the certificate. I'm just not sure how.

That question led me to a bogus setting for TLS_CACERTDIR. First, I tried simply commenting the line out, figuring the value of olcTLSCACertificatePath in cn=config.ldif would be used.
No, the client cannot use cn=config.ldif - that is for the server only. The server cannot use ldap.conf - that is for the client only.
Okay... With this in mind, I changed ldap.conf to use TLS_CACERT to point to a .pem file as generated by:

certutil -d /etc/pki/nssdb -L -n CN=Endoframe
then delete/obscure any sensitive information then post the cert
FYI,
You have my close attention: I am running ldap / slapd at 2.4.26 / the Suse 12.1 milepost 5
I have a tls problem / worked on it with nss, Then someone mentioned that it may be solvable with nslcd, so I changed to nslcd, but the problem doesn't appear to have changed.
I initially thought it was a bad cert, but used:
openssl verify -CAfile cacert.pem servercert.pem
[Christopher Wood suggestion] And the cert verified.
Waiting for a resolution to see if it sheds light on my problem.

Yes: Specify your cacert file in openldap's ldap.conf file (NOT PADL's in /etc/): typically /etc/openldap/ldap.conf or perhaps /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/ldap.conf.
If the cert is signed by a real CA then your system's cacert bundle needs updating.
If not, then I recommend you setup your own internal CA - it doesn't need to always be running nor even have network connectivity.
And use openssl vs mozilla's ssl - my understanding is that it doesn't quite work right; especially when building openldap.

That's it. Thank you!
If the cert is signed by a real CA then your system's cacert bundle needs updating.
It's self-signed. And (I *think*) things are working.
And use openssl vs mozilla's ssl - my understanding is that it doesn't quite work right; especially when building openldap.
I'm using Fedora's binaries; and they're built against NSS these days.

My impression from readinghttp://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/1514.html is that the cert would be pulled from the database.
I think that error message is from your client side missing CA cert settings. try run 'authconfig-tui' command to see if that fixes it.
