[ILUG] Debian LDAP problems upgrading lenny to squeeze

[Ger Hooton]

Hi all,
I get the the following error when upgrading  lenny to squeeze 

any help is most welcome.


==============================
slapcat failure during
upgrade                                                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                                                                     
An error occurred while upgrading the LDAP directory.
│
The 'slapcat' program failed while extracting the LDAP directory. This
may be caused by an incorrect configuration file (for example, missing
'moduleload' lines to  support the backend
database).                                                                                                                                          
  │
│ 
 This failure will cause 'slapadd' to fail later as well. The old
database files will be moved to /var/backups. If you want to try this
upgrade again, you should move  the old database files back into place,
fix whatever caused slapcat to fail, and run:
│ 
  │
slapcat > /var/backups/slapd-2.4.11-1+lenny2.1
│ 
  │
│ 
  │
Then move the database files back to a backup area and then try running
slapadd from /var/backups/slapd-2.4.11-1+lenny2.1.
