Issue ID: 10159 Summary: Unable to Use ldapi:// - ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server (-1) Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.13 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: chilimili1@outlook.de Target Milestone: ---

Problem: When attempting to use the ldapi:// URI to interact with the OpenLDAP server using commands like ldapmodify or ldapsearch, an error is encountered: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server (-1).

Process is running # ps -aux |grep ldap ldap 9 0.0 0.4 42232968 79472 ? Sl Jan23 0:10 /usr/libexec/slapd -u ldap -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// ldaps:/// -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d -d 256

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

Verified the ldapi URI configuration. Inspected the OpenLDAP configuration using slapd.conf or cn=config. Examined ACLs and access control rules.

Additional Information:

OpenLDAP is running as a Docker container Docker Compose configuration includes port mappings for LDAP (3269:389) and LDAPS (3268:636). The whole configuration was migrated from a working Server

Any additional insights or recommendations for resolving the ldapi connection issue would be greatly appreciated.
