Hi!
I just got the slapd up'n'running on my Debian/GNU Linux PPC box.
I don;t know if any of other Debian/PPC users have ever tried to run it but
on my machine it couldn't start rumbling something about:
daemon.log.0:Oct 12 17:30:34 plukwa slapd[9042]: ldbm_db_errcall(): ==> illegal
flag specified to db_appinit
daemon.log.0:Oct 12 17:30:34 plukwa slapd[9042]: ldbm_initialize(): FATAL error
in db_appinit() : Invalid argument
I wanted to give LDAP a run so started digging on the website and debian
sources. At first i spotted that debian/rules contains this at the beginning:
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE),i386-linux)
ldbm_api=db
else
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE),m68k-linux)
ldbm_api=db
else
ldbm_api=db2
endif
endif
At the website there was a mention about various DB versions and how they
cooperate with OpenLDAP. There was a note that DB2 on non-Intel CPUs is by
default compiled without (or with limited i don;t recal right now) support to
threads. There was also a sugesstion about using DB1 or GDBM in that case. So
i changed above to:
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE),i386-linux)
ldbm_api=db
else
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE),m68k-linux)
ldbm_api=db
else
ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE),powerpc-linux)
ldbm_api=db
else
ldbm_api=db2
endif
endif
endif
I think that previously openldapd didn't work on any PPC machines (yes, i
filled a bug report on this looong ago) Hope that above will help =o)
