I spent a lot of time yesterday trying different ideas for
reproducing the crash and
haven't found the right sequence of events yet. I did discover that I was able to
bring back a failed server instance by deleting a different entry, cn=grouperfeeds,
which
like cn=grouperstatus contains the lastUpdated and lastStarted attributes.
I'm testing now with 1.3.7.6, built from source, on Fedora 26.
It was looking good until both test servers crashed again this morning:
389-ds-base-libs-1.3.7.6-1.fc26.x86_64
389-ds-base-1.3.7.6-1.fc26.x86_64
I see hundreds of these errors:
[20/Oct/2017:01:55:11.852720430 -0700] - ERR - valueset_value_syntax_cmp -
slapi_attr_values2keys_sv failed for type lastStarted
So, it's happening on both the lastStarted and lastUpdated attributes of
cn=grouperstatus.
What I know for sure is that this never happened on 389 1.2.11.15 and has happened on
1.3.6.1, 1.3.6.8, and 1.3.7.6.
