[Samba] Odd behavior since upgrading to 4.9.6

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Hai 

I would suggest first.

Whats the OS? 
And sharing your smb.conf might help. 

Now, i suggest have a look here, 
http://downloads.van-belle.nl/samba4/Upgrade-info.txt 
Its only missing the step from 4.0 to 4.1 ) 
( this part ) 
The important change you need to know is : 
   Parameter Name			Description	Default
   --------------			-----------	-------

   acl allow execute always		New		False
   password level				Removed
   set directory				Removed
   use ntdb					New		No


The commands Andrew showed are working. 
You need to trigger a re-index and that should work. 

Before you do that, run on all servers:
samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs
( to fix errors, run it again , add --fix (--yes) 

samba-tool dbcheck --reindex
You need to run it once on every server. 

I think personaly, something is off on DC5. thats why i want to see the smb.conf and want to know the os. 
>> "ERROR(<type 'exceptions.IndexError'>): uncaught exception - list index out of range". 

And you did all needed steps as shown in: 
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Updating_Samba ? 

And other way to fix this, check all server, push the database from a good server to DC5. 
But try above first. 


Greetz, 

Louis
