Hi,

as I tried to install kolab 2.2.0-1.1 on my openSUSE 10.3 system today kolab_bootstrap -b reported at first:

Detected running slurpd processes

But there was no slurpd process. I saw that in the script the usual line

      if( `ps -elf|grep slurpd|grep -v grep` ) {

was replaced by the line

      if( `ps -elf|grep s[l]urpd` ) {

This line didn't filter the string "slurpd" of the grep command out and always
finds a running slurpd process.

I changed the line back and at next got the error

chown: Zugriff auf „/var/lib/ldap/*“ nicht möglich: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht
gefunden

I saw that the script deletes the whole /var/lib/ldap/ but doesn't create any
new database here so that slapd cannot start. Because the owner of
/var/lib/ldap/ is ldap and other owners have no other rights I assigned the read
and write right for other users to /var/lib/ldap/ in order to be sure that there will be no
permission problems here. Furthermore I run kolab_bootstrap -b as root.

The problem is as far as I can see that no database is created in
/var/lib/ldap/. This is no permission problem. I used all default settings.

There was already a similar problem on the kolab list (http://www.kolab.org/pipermail/kolab-users/2008-April/007779.html)
but in that case the script continued. In my case the script exits with the message

Could not start temporary slapd:  at /usr/share/kolab/scripts/kolab_bootstrap line 469.

It was not possible to install kolab. Please help.
