Hello all!
In the process of upgrading slapd from 2.2.6 to 2.4.9 (ubuntu 6.06 to 8.04), I get the following error when trying to import the LDIF dump from the old server:
# slapadd -b "o=Company Name,c=CH" -l dump.from.2.2.6.ldif slapadd: dn="o=Company Name,c=CH" (line=1): (65) no structural object class provided (same result if I skip the -b "o=Company Name,c=CH")
slapd.conf has not been altered during the upgrade and contains: [...] include /etc/ldap/schema/core.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/nis.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema [...] database bdb suffix "O=Company Name, C=CH" checkpoint 512 30 directory "/var/lib/ldap" rootdn "cn=root, O=Company Name, C=CH" rootpw XXX index objectClass eq [...]
The first entry in the LDIF dump is: dn: o=Company Name,c=CH objectClass: top entryUUID: ... creatorsName: cn=root,o=Company Name,c=CH modifiersName: cn=root,o=Company Name,c=CH createTimestamp: 20071214103903Z modifyTimestamp: 20071214103903Z entryCSN: 20071214103903Z#000001#00#000000
(This directory contains only x.509 CRLs and certificates.)
From the error I assumed that for some reason the "top" objectclass was not correctly defined. In core.schema I found the following new entry from RFC2256, which was commented out:
#objectclass ( 2.5.6.0 NAME 'top' # DESC 'RFC2256: top of the superclass chain' # ABSTRACT # MUST objectClass )
After uncommenting, though, the error is:
slapadd -b "o=Company Name,c=CH" -l dump.from.2.2.6.ldif /etc/ldap/schema/core.schema: line 366 objectclass: Duplicate objectClass: "2.5.6.0" slapadd: bad configuration file!
Yet, no other schema file contains any definition for 2.5.6.0, so I assume that it's compiled into slapd.
This leaves me stuck, scratching my head, and extremely grateful for any hint on where to look further.
Thank you all
