Resolution

LDAP Server abends during startup with CEE errors related load errors or failures in DLL libslapd.dll can be caused by having the wrong or no OMVS HOME directory specified for the LDAP Server started task. The LDAP Server installation directory should be specified for the HOME directory.

To address the error change the HOME in the job to the directory name where you installed LDAP. For example, in ACF2 the following TSO ACF commands can be issued:

SET LID
CHANGE ldapserver HOME(/u/users/ldapinstallationdirectory)

Where ldapserver is the logonid that the LDAP Server runs under as shown in the ACF9CCCD message, and ldapinstallationdirectory is the installationdirectory for the LDAP Server.
