Issue ID: 9874 Summary: slapadd is returning garbage error data Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.6.2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: quanah@openldap.org Target Milestone: ---

When slapadd encounters an error, instead of returning that error it is returning garbage text.

Example:

slapadd: could not add entry dn="olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config" (line=1119): #]I

Note the: "#]I"

If run with -d -1, we see the actual error is:

mdb_db_init: Initializing mdb database olcDbDirectory: value #0: invalid path: No such file or directory slapadd: could not add entry dn="olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config" (line=1119): olcDbDirectory: value #0: invalid path: No such file or directory slapadd shutdown: initiated
