Recovering a corrupted OpenLDAP database
Warning! I do not give any warranty that this will work, it may make things worse. Always backup. A lot.
You will require the 'db_recover' utility for db4 (lives in the db-utils RPM).
Backup your LDAP database (in /var/lib/ldap).
Stop the LDAP server if it is running:
/etc/init.d/ldap stop
Change to the OpenLDAP directory:
cd /var/lib/ldap
Execute db_recover:
db_recover -v
Reset the file permissions:
chown ldap.ldap *
chmod 600 *
Restart the server:
/etc/init.d/slap start
