[Pkg-openldap-devel] Lenny upgrade glitch

[Roberto C. Sánchez]

I just upgraded my LDAP server to Lenny.  It appears that most of the
files in /var/lib/ldap were changed from being owned by
openldap:openldap to root:root.  This caused to slapd to fail to start.
incidentally, it didn't log any messages.  I had to try and run slapd
from the command line with debugging output (I suppose the debugging
output would have also shown in the log if I had enabled it in the
config file).

Anyhow, I am not sure how the ownerships got tweaked.  However, when I
compared to my most recent backup, everything in /var/lib/ldap was in
fact owned by openldap:openldap.  Once I did a chown everything started
up OK.  Is this a bug that someone else has seen?  Or could it be
something peculiar to my upgrade experience?

Regards,

-Roberto
