[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#375067: Running a second instance of slapd stops /etc/init.d/slapd stop from working

[James Westby]

Package: slapd
Version: 2.3.24-1
Severity: minor

[Apologies for the lack of additional information on the bug report, but slapd
is only set up in a VM]

Hi,

I have been trying to debug some problems so I use -d quite often. If i forget
to /etc/init.d/slapd stop before trying this then slapd -d from the command 
line fails as you would expect. Then when I try and stop the daemon with
/etc/init.d/slapd stop it looks ok, but the daemon is left running, and must
be killed, which is not so good.

To reproduce

/etc/init.d/slapd start
slapd -d 1 (fails)
/etc/init.d/slapd stop (nothing seems amiss)
slapd -d 1 (fails again)
/etc/init.d/slapd stop
.
.
.

Doesn't stop the daemon.

Thanks,

James
