Remove "-n userRoot" from the restore script, this
"false option" was
Removing this option from 'bak2db' fixed issue 1) however, 'bak2db.pl'
still causes ns-slapd to crash.
Was the backup from a different
instance/server?
Looks like it's a bad backup but hard to say. You could run dbverify on
your backup directory to see if it complains about anything:
The backup was made from the same server, running 'dbverify' didn't find any
issues in the backup.
This launches a task to perform the backup but the script returns
before
the task is even started, then below you are doing db2ldif's. Potential
race condition. I'm not sure if that could be causing an issue, but
the db2ldif should be done after the backup (db2bak) is complete.
Ideally this should all be done while the server is stopped, but it's
not a requirement.
We will look into this changes in more detail to make see if this is causing the issues.
Thanks Mark for the prompt reply, it has helped us a lot to better understand the backup
and restore scripts.
