Andreas,

Thanks for this patch. I tried it, but there are a number of remaining
issues to be resolved I believe.

First, if you disable BR2_PACKAGE_OPENLDAP_CLIENTS,
the /etc/openldap/slapd.conf file gets removed in a post installation
hook, so slapd cannot start.

If you fix this, then the path to the pidfile (and argsfile) in
slapd.conf are wrong, because they point to /var/run/, to which the
ldap user has not write access.

If you fix this again, when you start slapd, it complains:

bdb_db_open: warning - no DB_CONFIG file found in
directory /var/openldap-data: (2). Expect poor performance for suffix
"dc=my-domain,dc=com".

It should probably be fixed by using DB_CONFIG.example as DB_CONFIG
in /var/openldap-data/.

Some more comments below.

This directory should be 700 according to the slapd documentation:

==
# The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND 
# should only be accessible by the slapd and slap tools.
# Mode 700 recommended.
directory       %LOCALSTATEDIR%/openldap-data

It is not clear why you need this. /var is a persistent directory, so I
believe all you need here is an unconditional:

	chown -R ldap:ldap /var/openldap-data

Setting the permission to 700 can be done by a OPENLDAP_PERMISSIONS
variable in the .mk file. Ideally, we would also be able to define the
user/group, but we currently can't do this by referencing symbolic
user/groups, only by explicit UID/GID, and we don't know the UID/GID
that will be allocated to the ldap user/group. So I think we should:

 1/ Set the permission in OPENLDAP_PERMISSIONS
 2/ Set the owner/group in the S75slapd script

You can add:

	-p /var/run/slapd/slapd.pid

Why do you pass -n ? And why do you use -a instead of -x ?

See S50dropbear in the Buildroot sources for a good example of an init
script.

Same here.

Also add the "-q" option

I think it's better to use the pid file here, no?

	   kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/slapd/slapd.pid)

$(@D)/S75slapd does not exist. So this means you never rebuilt your
package :-)

$(@D) is the source directory of openldap. You want to replace this
with: $(OPENLDAP_PKGDIR)/S75slapd

Shouldn't be a post install target hook. Instead, do this:

define OPENLDAP_INIT_SYSV
	$(INSTALL) -D -m 755 $(OPENLDAP_PKGDIR)/S75slapd $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/init.d/S75slapd
endef

and it will automatically install the init script of the chosen init
system is sysV compatible.

Please do:

ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_OPENLDAP_SERVER),y)
OPENLDAP_CONF_OPTS += --enable-slapd
else
OPENLDAP_CONF_OPTS += --disable-slapd
endif

Which is a bit more explicit.

Could you rework your patch to solve those different issues, and send
an updated version?

Thanks!
