Hi again all! Just another brick wall i've ran into...
I am running the following command: ldapadd -x -h localhost -D cn=mailadmin,dc=global-drum,dc=com -W -f /srv/ox/share/init_ldap.ldif I then get: ldap_bind: Invalid DN syntax (34) additional info: invalid DN
This error happens if i have UID=mailadmin,dc=global-drum,dc=com, cn=root.... cn=mailadmin or whatever.
if necessary, i can post the contents of the init_ldap.ldif and my slapd.conf files.
ldapsearch -h localhost -D "UID=mailadmin,dc=global-drum,dc=com" -x -W (after password enter) comes back with:
# extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <> with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL #
# search result search: 2 result: 32 No such object
# numResponses: 1
and when i look at slapd -d -1, it is showing the following, amongst other things: ldap_read: want=8, got=7 0000: 30 05 02 01 03 42 00 ber_get_next: tag 0x39 len 5 contents: ber_dump: buf=0x80268b80 ptr=0x80268b80 end=0x80268b85 len=5 0000: 02 01 03 42 00 ber_get_next ldap_read: want=8 error=Resource temporarily unavailable ber_get_next on fd 16 failed errno=11 (Resource temporarily unavailable)
The database is supposed to be empty, so maybe it should be reporting what it is reporting above. Thoughts?
Thanks and Kind Regards,

Maybe your slapd.conf lacks the statement
include <whatever>/core.schema
or has whitespace in front of it. If so, fix that.
Ian, Try ldapadd -x -h localhost -D "cn=mailadmin,dc=global-drum,dc=com" -W -f /srv/ox/share/init_ldap.ldif and see if this works. Notice the DN after the -D is in double quotes. Also, if you have the HOSTS (which is depreciated) or URI (which is the new way of defining providers) defined in your /etc/openldap/ldap.conf file you do not need to define the -h localhost in the ldapadd or ldapsearch commands.
