[SOLVED] Missing slapd.conf

[supradave]

I'm trying to run

slapcat -f slapd.conf

and I get the error:

openldap/sbin/slapcat -f openldap-2.4.21.7z/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
Unrecognized database type (bdb)
openldap-2.4.21.7z/etc/openldap/slapd.conf: line 53: <database> failed init (bdb)
slapcat: bad configuration file!

So, in /opt/zimbra, I do:

find . -print | grep slapd.conf
./openldap-2.4.21.7z/share/man/man5/slapd.conf.5
./openldap-2.4.21.7z/share/man/man5/slapd-config.5
./openldap-2.4.21.7z/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
./openldap-2.4.21.7z/etc/openldap/slapd.conf.default

So, I looked into slapd.conf and saw that the dc was my-domain and I switched that to the appropriate domain. But still no go.

Any ideas?

What are you trying to do exactly ?

slapcat is a tool for dumping ldap account data to stdout or a file. At least on my old OpenExchange system, this is how it's done. Since the tool is available on the Zimbra box, I presume that it would do the same thing.

I'm just trying to dump the ldap account data so I can glean better how to import my old ldap data.

Also, I'd like to be able to do comprehensive backups.

su - zimbra
mkdir /tmp/ldapbackup
/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmslapcat /tmp/ldapbackup

That solved it.
