Fedora directory users - Apr 2009 - Re: fedora ds problem with updating centos

I have exactly the same error:

 > ldap...[19/Apr/2009:06:46:14 -0400] - Unable to access 
nsslapd-rundir: > Bad address

In my case this is nothing to do with the upgrade to CentOS 5.3 (which 
went smoothly). Instead it is when I upgrade to fedora-ds-base-1.2.0 
from fedora-ds-base-1.1.3-2. It does not seem to make any difference 
what the permissions are on the /var/run/dirsrv directory. To show this 
I have made the directory world writable and I still get the error.
At the moment the permissions are: ls -ld /var/run/dirsrv

drwxrwxrwx 2 ldap root 4096 Apr 20 18:09 /var/run/dirsrv


Previously it was 750
Any other ideas?

PS I am running a production system so I have had to revert to 1.1.3 
until this is fixed.

Sounds like selinux is enabled/enforcing. Try setting it to permissive.

mkdir -p /var/run/dirsrv/slapd-yourinstancename - chown to your server 
user id - chmod to make it rwx by the server user ID

shutdown the directory server - Edit dse.ldif, the cn=config entry - add 
nsslapd-rundir: /var/run/dirsrv/slapd-yourinstancename

I''m not sure why this happened - the rpm is supposed to not touch 
/var/run/dirsrv if it already exists
