Description Michel Smidt 2016-06-23 10:53:21 CEST

If lines in slapd.conf are too long (>2048 chars) the slapd.conf do not start.
Error:
"Starting ldap server(s): slapd .../etc/ldap/slapd.conf: line 108: no indexes selected
failed."

This affected at least the indexes section which will be set bei UCR-Variables ldap/index/{eq, approx, etc.}

So, the slapd runs perfectly fine if the line will be wrapped to a newline. e.g.
index attr1,attr2 eq
index attr3,attr4 eq

Fixed conffiles/etc/ldap/slapd.conf.d/40univention-ldap-server_database. If a index line is more than 2000 chars, the remaining attributes (+ the necessary config options ) are put on next line.

univention-ldap.yaml
merged to 4.2

Code review: OK

ucs-test: OK

Tests: OK. It was little bit difficult due to Bug #39501 but I've created new attributes

YAML: I've changed the entry: r72335
