Hello,

Yesterday afternoon my LDAP server crashed without doing any modification, just consulting.

My environment is an openvz container:

# cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m

# uname -a
Linux newldap.test.es 2.6.32-042stab053.5 #1 SMP Tue Mar 27 11:42:17 MSD 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Please find below the log when it crashes:

when I noticed that the ldap had crashed, I tried to restart the process and the following errors show up:
