Hallo, I got the following log entries in /var/log/messages

Apr 5 13:19:51 myhost slaptest: auxpropfunc error invalid parameter supplied Apr 5 13:19:51 myhost slapd[18435]: auxpropfunc error invalid parameter supplied

This is funny because I redirect the logs of OpenLDAP in an own file by an entry in /etc/rsyslog.conf:

# OpenLDAP local4.* /var/log/ldap.log

What does these log entries mean?

Peter,

Those log entries are generated by the cyrus sasl library, and sent to the LOG_AUTH facility and probably at LOG_DEBUG level. You could reduce the log level of your auth facility to discard those messages.

However, the actual source of the error is probably due to cyrus attempting to make use of an auxprop store that you don't care to be using (such as sasldb, sql, or ldapdb).

Instead of reconfiguring your rsyslog.conf, you may be able to stop the messages by configuring a sasl slapd.conf (e.g. /usr/lib/sasl2/slapd.conf) configuration with the following contents:

auxprop_plugin: slapd
