[Bug 658227] Re: won't start after Maverick upgrade; bdb "Program version 4.8 doesn't match environment version 4.7"

[James Page]

** Description changed:

  I just upgraded from Lucid to Maverick, and now slapd won't start.  From
  syslog:
  
  Oct 11 06:10:31 helium slapd[12130]: @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.23 (Aug  7 2010 01:39:36) $#012#011buildd at yellow:/build/buildd/openldap-2.4.23/debian/build/servers/slapd

  Oct 11 06:10:32 helium slapd[12131]: slapd stopped.
  
  Information on the web says that I need to run some kind of manual
  database upgrade to BDB 4.8, but I have no familiarity with the BDB
  tools, and the recipes that are suggested are varied and uncertain.
  
  Please suggest a workaround or manual upgrade, as some of my network
  services are at a dead stop due to this problem.
  
  Thanks,
  Andrew.

  WORKAROUND:
  Install db4.7-util and recover slapd databases:
  apt-get install db4.7-util
  cd /var/lib
  cp -a ldap ldap.bak
  cd ldap
  db4.7_checkpoint -1
  db4.7_recover
  
  slapd will then start correctly.

+ TEST CASE:
+ Steps to re-produce on a new Lucid install
+ 
+  sudo apt-get install slapd ldap-utils
+ 
+ Follow the Lucid Server guide through the section entitled populating
+ LDAP to the point where data is loaded into ldap for the backend
+ configuration.
+ 
+ Perform a Lucid->Maverick update:
+ 
+  sudo do-release-upgrade -d
+ 
+ slapd fails to start with the following error message

+ Program version 4.8 doesn't match environment version 4.7
