I changed the syntax of the ldapserach query and moved the filters at the end of the command but i got error that there is "No such object (32)"

i.e.

ldapsearch -h 10.117.1.244 -LLL -x -b 'dc=cosmote,dc=ro' -D "cn=pcrfuser,dc=cosmote,dc=ro" -w pcrfuser123 "(&(billtype=PREPAID)(msisdn=*))"

I am worried that maybe i have not constructed properly the table OL_dn2id or i use a wrong conifuguration mapping for my data and that is why my ldap search query does not work

do you have any reference in order to understand the role and structure of table OL_dn2id?

Thanks

Dear all

My environment consist of a mySWL Cluster database that use ndbcluster storage engine. I have install openLDAP using back ndb in otder to expose my database in LDAP fromat. The main table of LDAP is the table OL_dn2id.

Entries in this table have the following format

eid | object_class     | a0       | a1       | a2                              | a3                       | a4 | a5 ... | a15

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1    | usertable@top | ro       | mydb | msisdn=40765111111 | billtype=prepaid | null (all other columns are null)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2    | usertable@top | ro       | mydb | msisdn=40765111112 | billtype=postpaid | null (all other columns are null)

My database definition in slapd.conf is the following

database ndb
suffix "dc=mydb,dc=ro"
rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=mydb,dc=ro"

I want to execute ldap search queries based on msisdn or billtype attribute. I am trying to this using the command

i.e. return all postpaid user msisdns - i ma trying to use the * in the filter in order to have all msisdns

ldapsearch -h localhost -LLL -x -s sub -d 32 -b bill=postpaid,msisdn=*,dc=cosmote,dc=ro

You are not using * in a filter but in the basedn which does not conform to dn syntax.

I am not sure, how your filter should look like, but it should be stated at the end of your ldapsearch, e.g.
... -b dc=cosmote,dc=ro "(&(bill=postpaid)(msisdn=*))"

This depends on how the data are modelled ldap-wise and not ndb-wise.

Cheers,

Peter

The output of this command:

Invalid DN syntax (34)
Additional information: invalid DN

Any help on this would be very usefull
