I have installed Citadel (apt-get install citadel-suite) on my Ubuntu 12.04 Box. I configured it for LDAP authentication. After the installation every root console got flooded with error messages of the following pattern:

DB: PANIC: Invalid argument
bdb(): PANIC: Invalid argument
bdb(): txn_commit: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery
DB: not a restored transaction

The only way to stop this was to kill the 'citserver' process.

Is there a way to stop those messages from flooding my console? What causes this error and how can I avoid it?

Finally found the cause of this myself:

The Citadel package of Ubuntu 12.04 is broken for some systems as it says here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/citadel/+bug/911732

I will now try to upgrade to 14.04 or install citadel manually...

Update: I was not able to upgrade to 14.04 because of my server provider. I instead reinstalled the machine with debian 7 -> works like a charm...
