    Hello,

    We were working on AIX LPAR 7.2 TL4 SP1.
    We were working with "openldap-2.0.21-6ssl.ppc"    and  "httpd.base 2.2.14.0 Apache Http Server".
    Life was very nice !

    Then we have decided to update our AIX LPAR to AIX 7.2 TL5 SP1.
    Then the openldap rpm has been updated to  "openldap-2.4.58-3.ppc".
    Then troubles came with http server returning error message   "/opt/freeware/lib/libldap.a(libldap.so.2) could not be loaded".

    We had to go back to our previous AIX os level.

    But we would like to understand what happened.
    openldap-2.4.58-3.ppc  package   is not compatible with our  "httpd 2.2.14.0 Apache Http Server" ?
    We thank you very much for your help,
    Christophe

    You are using a very old openldap rpm and the httpd version & fileset is outdated. httpd is now provided as a rpm through AIX Toolbox.
    Also use dnf to install/update packages. Checkout the blog here --> https://community.ibm.com/community/user/power/blogs/sangamesh-mallayya1/2021/05/28/dnf-is-now-available-on-aix-toolbox?CommunityKey=10c1d831-47ee-4d92-a138-b03f7896f7c9
