Hello, I am facing an issue with syncrepl and STARTTLS on 389 port. The kind of problem happening only sometimes, and disappearing "by itself". I use Debian Jessie, OpenLDAP 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u2.
Description : I have a production environment, and a preproduction environment. Both of them consist of one provider and multiple consumers. Right now all is working fine. Then 2 times a days a script injects the production data in the preproduction environment : ldapsearch on prod / ldapdelete on preprod / stop slapd on preprod / slapadd on preprod / start slapd on preprod. Then sometimes during this injection I get a problem : one or more of the consumers in preprod fail to sync. But sometimes all are OK. Then the consumers facing the issue succeed syncrepl again "by themselves" after a few dozens of minutes / hours. If I restart slapd on the failing consumers, then the syncrepl succeeds immediately. When the syncrepl is failing, I can still perform an ldapsearch using STARTTLS and the syncrepl binding credentials from the consumer to the provider. There is no issue with non-TLS LDAP replications. Also, using ldapsearch with option "-d 3" I get TLS debug, but even with "olcLogLevel -1" in cn=config I can't get precise debug for TLS during syncrepl. I captured the trafic and when there is the error, wireshark at some point can't understand TLS sent by the consumer (SSL "ignored unknown record"). Corresponding data is "30 05 02 01 02 42 00". Not sure it's related to the problem though, but it looks like since (if I am right) the first information in TLS is the content-type, and 30 is not a valid value for content type (https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-5). Any idea ? I would like to avoid making the injection script connect to all my preprod consumers and restart slapd on them. Please feel free to ask for more logs / configurations.
