I will move this there thank you. It is difficult to know where to go - this seems like a bug as the behavior is pervasive in all my testing. I have now tried multiple OS and multiple versions of OpenLDAP.

As for the path differences - that was just me copying/pasting from two separate tests. I assure you the problem persists when the paths are correct. As you pointed out - inconsistent in the information I provided therein - not in actual testing.

Thank you.

Either something's inconsistent in your config or the information you provided herein.

Also this does not seem to be a bug report but the ITS is only for reporting bugs. Please send usage questions to openldap-technical mailing list.

Ciao, Michael.
