Modifying the Solserver Script for Your Environment

1. If slapd is not in /opt/symas/etc/openldap configure /opt/symas/etc/openldap/symas-openldap.conf to point to slapd.conf.   
2. Comment out the default EXTRA_SLAPD_ARGS line
3. Add the following:

EXTRA_SLAPD_ARGS=" -f /<path to>/slapd.conf" 

4. Configure /etc/init.d/solserver script to report location of slapd.conf file when solserver service starts 5. Change (the top line) from:

#! /bin/sh  

to:

#! /bin/sh -x 

Convert slapd.conf to cn=config (slapd.d)

1. Edit 'slapd.conf'

vi /opt/symas/etc/openldap/slapd.conf 

2. Add the following lines before the first database definition.

database config 
rootdn "cn=admin,cn=config" 
rootpw config 

3. Save and exit the editor

:wq 

4. Stop 'slapd' (solserver)

sudo service solserver stop 

5. Make slapd.d directory

mkdir /etc/openldap/slapd.d 

6. Convert slapd.conf to slapd.d

slaptest -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d 

7. Update ownership of the slapd.d directory

chown -R ldap.ldap /etc/openldap/slapd.d 

8. Rename slapd.conf file

mv /etc/openldap/slapd.conf /etc/openldap/slapd.conf.converted 

9. Update slapd URIs and Ssers

slapd -h ldap:/// ldaps:/// -u ldap 

or:

slapd -h ldap:/// ldaps:/// -u ldap -d -1 to debug 

10. Start the /opt/symas/etc/solserver service

sudo service solserver start -F /opt/symas/etc/openldap/slapd.d
