Apache segfaults when it is trying to authenticate against ldap in the following setup. <Location /svn> DAV svn SVNParentPath /var/svn </Location> <Location /svn/main> AuthLDAPURL ldap://127.0.0.1/ou=people,dc=some,dc=domain?uid?one require valid-user </Location> The segfault occurs when accessing the server with 'svn co https://svn.some.domain/svn/main' after entering the password. It does not do so, when using a htpasswd file. Changing to a unix socket instead of tcp/ip results in the same segfault. The problem occured with apache-2.0.58-r2 as well as apache-2.0.59 and openldap-2.3.24-r1. I emerged apache with FEATURES=nostrip and CFLAGS='-O0 -g' and was able to get core dumps from an apache compiled with mpm-worker and threads. However when loading core dumps into gdb and running bt full, it tells me that there are no symbol tables. (Sadly I am currently a gdb novice.) I tried to isolate the problem, with a fresh apache and openldap install without ssl and svn, but was not able to get core dumps. It seems that apache simply does not want to be debugged. I also tried to set MaxClients 1 to run apache directly in debugger, however it then gets automatically set to 25 as that is the ThreadsPerChild value which seems impossible to be changed.

I have the same exact behavior with SVN. Apache segfaults with trying to authenticate. As far as I can tell, it doesn't even get to authenticate, it crashes before this happens.

You need to say that it's basic type authentication, otherwise yes, this will happen. AuthType Basic AuthName "My Realm" AuthLDAPURL ldap://blah Require valid-user It's basically bad configs. Marking invalid.
I realize you are responding to the original poster but I have this setup properly and it doesn't work. I tried it again this morning, made sure I had the relevant information listed and it still crashes.

I was having: AuthType Basic AuthName "some.name" AuthLDAPURL ldap://127.0.0.1/ou=people,dc=some,dc=domain?uid?one Sorry for not posting my full config before.

I just wanted to note that upgrading to apache 2.2.4-r7 fixed the issue for me.
