Chris,

not I did not try that. Mostly because I think moving expresses the actual 
operation more clearly in LDIF.
But in the mean time I edited the config LDIF (cutting and pasting the object, 
then adjusting the DN.
I wonder whether the problem might be that the new RDN is the same as the old 
RDN šŸ˜‰

Kind regards,
Ulrich Windl

Hi!

Reading https://kb.symas.com/en_US/configuration/configure-delta-syncrepl I 
realized that my syncprov is on the original database, not on the accesslog.
So I tried to fix it my ā€œmovingā€ the overlay like this:

dn: olcOverlay={0}syncprov,olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config
changetype: moddn
newrdn: olcOverlay={0}syncprov
deleteoldrdn: 1
newsuperior: olcDatabase={3}mdb,cn=config

However as I got  "ldap_rename: Server is unwilling to perform (53)" I wonder:
Is my LDIF wrong, or is it an implementation restriction?




Hi Ulrich,

Did you try delete + add?

dn: olcOverlay={0}syncprov,olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config
changetype: delete

dn: olcOverlay=syncrpov,olcDatabase={3}mdb,cn=config
changetype: add
...[etc]...
