Slapd

[albgdy]

Hi,

I made a mistake and one of the hard disk drives was totally full today, when zimbra tried to start provocated a problem in ldap and consequently slapd is not starting.

zimbra@myserver:/$ zmcontrol start
Host myserver.domain.com
Starting ldap...Done.
Failed.
Failed to start slapd. Attempting debug start to determine error.

I am using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS with Zimbra 6.0.7_2473_FOSS

In the logs /var/log/zimbra.log we can read:

After the problem I made the next instrucction after checking that slapd was not running

cd /opt/zimbra/data/ldap/hdb/db
/opt/zimbra/bdb-4.7.25.4/bin/dbrecover -v

It solved the connecctions of the db (3) and gave me also info that everything is ok.

Now I am not sure if its better to make an upgrade of the system to end the problem or continue in other way.

Bind, mx and hostname are working properly.
