Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ldap-utils
When trying to debug some ldif syntax information with ldapadd, I found that -d debuglevel is defined in the man page, but the debuglevels are not defined. I found the following page: http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/HOWTO/LDAP-HOWTO-4.html Which defines the debuglevels which are available for ldap-utils utilities, (ldapadd, ldapmodify, etc.). Could we get this information added to the man pages for these utils? I can do it myself if someone can verify that the following information is correct for our version of ldap-utils: ii ldap-utils 2.2.26-5ubuntu -d <level> | ? This option sets the slapd debug level to <level>. When level is a `?' character, the various debugging levels are printed and slapd exits, regardless of any other options you give it. Current debugging levels are: -1 enable all debugging 0 no debugging 1 trace function calls 2 debug packet handling 4 heavy trace debugging 8 connection management 16 print out packets sent and received 32 search filter processing 64 configuration file processing 128 access control list processing 256 stats log connections/operations/results 512 stats log entries sent 1024 print communication with shell backends 2048 print entry parsing debugging You may enable multiple levels by specifying the debug option once for each desired level. Or, since debugging levels are additive, you can do the math yourself. That is, if you want to trace function calls and watch the config file being processed, you could set level to the sum of those two levels (in this case, -d 65). Or, you can let slapd do the math, (e.g. -d 1 -d 64). Consult <ldap.h> for more details. Note: slapd must have been compiled with -DLDAP_DEBUG defined for any debugging information beyond the two stats levels to be available. BTW, ldap-utils on ubuntu _is_ compiled with LDAP_DEBUG. thanks, speeves ** Affects: openldap2.3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- debuglevels are not defined in ldap-utils man pages https://launchpad.net/bugs/74754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
