Ldapadd, slapadd, ldapmodify hang when trying to add entries

ldapopenldapsolaris

I have recently installed OpenLDAP on Solaris-10. Whether using
slapadd, ldapadd, or ldapmodify, I am able to establish the root node
and the child, but when I try to add an entry for a person under
inetorgperson, the command hangs. Here is my current slapd.conf file:

include  /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include  /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include  /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema

pidfile  /usr/local/var/run/slapd.pid
argsfile /usr/local/var/run/slapd.args

Here is the .ldif file I am currently trying to use:

dn: dc=myorg,dc=org
dc: myorg
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: Myorg Dot Org

dn: ou=people,dc=myorg,dc=org
ou:people
objectClass: organizationalUnit

dn: cn=Jerry Carter,ou=people,dc=myorg,dc=org
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
cn: Jerry Carter
sn: Carter

Here is the ldap command I have most recently tried:

ldapadd -x -v -d -1 -D "cn=Manager,dc=myorg,dc=org" \
    -f /ldif/top.ldif -w secret

The first two entries from the .ldif file are successful, but the last
one hangs. The following messages appear repeating in a loop:

** ld 805b7d0 Outstanding Requests:
 * msgid 2,  origid 2, status InProgress
   outstanding referrals 0, parent count 0
  ld 805b7d0 request count 1 (abandoned 0)
** ld 805b7d0 Response Queue:
   Empty
  ld 805b7d0 response count 0
ldap_chkResponseList ld 805b7d0 msgid 2 all 1
ldap_chkResponseList returns ld 805b7d0 NULL
ldap_int_select
ldap_result ld 805b7d0 msgid 2

Best Answer

Your LDAP databases may have become corrupt.

Try recovering by doing the following:

  • stop openldap
  • copy the entire folder someplace safe
  • do a slapcat
  • delete the database files
  • run slapadd
