Hello

I've tried the same activity on our Centos 55 OpenLDAP server boxes.

I'm not sure why and if I've done the right choice, but I've installed db-4.8.30. With this release and OpenLDAP 2.4.23 now I have a multimaster installation up and running. Sincerely, I had problems also trying to use db-5.0.something.

Hope this help you. Regards,

Roberto

Hello,

I tried to compile the Release 2.4.23 of openldap on my centos 5.5 server.

It fails with:

checking db.h usability... yes checking db.h presence... yes checking for db.h... yes checking for Berkeley DB major version in db.h... 4 checking for Berkeley DB minor version in db.h... 3 checking if Berkeley DB version supported by BDB/HDB backends... no configure: error: BerkeleyDB version incompatible with BDB/HDB backends

I do have db4 installed:

db4-4.3.29-10.el5_5.2 db4-devel-4.3.29-10.el5_5.2 db4-utils-4.3.29-10.el5_5.2

What may I do wrong? Any sugesstions?

Thanks and regards . Götz

Hey Roberto,

thanks a lot. I'll try that way too :-)

Hi,

I had to type these commands:

# wget http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.tar.gz # tar -xvzf db-4.8.30.tar.gz # cd db-4.8.30/build_unix/ # ../dist/configure -prefix=/usr/local # make # make install

As you can see, no special options. Regards,

RHEL/CentOS db4-4.3 has proven unreliable for use with OpenLDAP Software. You will have to use a version of BerkeleyDB that is not provided by those vendors. One option is of course to roll your own packages. However, many RHEL/CentOS users on the list base off of Buchan Milne's RPMs. There is some (occasionally hard-learned) institutional knowledge in his build process that you would likely benefit from. You can find references/links to these in the openldap-technical/openldap-software list archives.

If this can help, LTB-project also provides RPMs for CentOS 5: http://ltb-project.org/wiki/documentation/openldap-rpm

Clément.

I have build some openldap rpm packages on http://yum.zymlinux.net/repo/ that rpms are all created from mock build system, it is proved to be able to build on centos 4.x 5.x, you can even use the yum repo, I have put the config file on site too.

that rpm will overwrite the openldap from CentOS/Redhat base system. please be aware.

srpm pakges in http://yum.zymlinux.net/repo/SRPMS/

please take v2.4.23 only.

FYI

Hey and Thanks for the suggestion.

Do you or anybody has any experience with that packages?

I downloaded the srpm to rebuild it on my centos 5.5 system, but It fails with the same DB4 missing error.

I installed the provided berkeleydb-ltb-4.6.21.NC-4.patch4.rpm to.

For no I did not try to install and run the provided ldap-rpm.

Thanks for your comment. It looks indeed somehow difficult to get an current version installed. I'll continue trying to find a solution.

Thanks and regards . Götz

There are 'recent' openldap and BerkeleyDB rpms for RHEL 5 on the Ldap Toolbox project web site:
