[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#902853: ldap-utils: Logfile warnings after upgrade to 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u4

[Stefan van Lieshout]

Package: ldap-utils
Version: 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The upgrade to 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u4 results in a lot of warnings in the logfile /var/log/auth.log

Jul  2 09:27:43 hostname apache2: ldapdb_canonuser_plug_init() failed in sasl_canonuser_add_plugin(): invalid parameter supplied
Jul  2 09:27:43 hostname apache2: _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_canonuser_init for plugin: ldapdb

This is not only for the apache2 process, also sssd_be, sm-mta & php spawn the same warnings.

A downgrade to 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u3 did solve the issue.

There was no disruption in service noticed when version 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u4 was installed.

With regards,
Stefan
