Fedora directory users - May 2009 - FDS 1.2 - error when reinitialized dirsrv after the replication

Hi, everyone!

When our FDS 1.2 server (consumer replica) receives the replica database and
after the dirsrv service is reinitialized the following error message
happens:

"memory allocator - cannot calloc 0 elements;trying to allocate 0 or a
negative number of elements is not portable and gives different results on
different platforms."

This server is a debian lenny and the FDS deb packages were generated using
the default options based on the "
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:BuildonEtch" document, but
using the more recent packages on the
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/sources/.

Any idea about this problem?

Regards,
Priscilla Lanne

Rich,

After some tests, we discovered that the problem occurs when there is view
object (objectclass = nsview) on the directory. If we create a base that
contains only groups and users, the error message doesn''t exist, but if
we
create a view object, the message appears. The same error message occurs
when we replicated database that has views. It''s important to observe
that
the view is working correctly. This situation started with the FDS 1.2
version. If we use the FDS 1.1.3 version, that''s all ok.

Thanks,
Priscilla Lanne
