Hello,
I am trying to set up OpenLDAP on Arch Linux on my server, following instruction on Arch Wiki[1]. I prepared the config.ldif file, replacing every $BASEDN and $PASSWD in the example configuration:
# The root config entry dn: cn=config objectClass: olcGlobal cn: config olcArgsFile: /run/openldap/slapd.args olcPidFile: /run/openldap/slapd.pid # Schemas dn: cn=schema,cn=config objectClass: olcSchemaConfig cn: schema # TODO: Include further schemas as necessary include: file:///etc/openldap/schema/core.ldif # The config database dn: olcDatabase=config,cn=config objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig olcDatabase: config olcRootDN: cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com # The database for our entries dn: olcDatabase=mdb,cn=config objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig objectClass: olcMdbConfig olcDatabase: mdb olcSuffix: dc=example,dc=com olcRootDN: cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com olcRootPW: {SSHA}xZqSQN4wG4+C5I57dB/Qm02vJ+kQcwd7 olcDbDirectory: /var/lib/openldap/openldap-data # TODO: Create further indexes olcDbIndex: objectClass eq
Then I executed the following command:
sudo -u ldap slapadd -n 0 -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d/ -l ./config.ldif
I think you (or the instructions) are mixing conf-syntax with config-syntax. IMHO olc* is config-syntax. See "man slapd.conf" vs. "man slapd-config".

This gave me the following error:
invalid config directory /etc/openldap/slapd.d/, error 2 slapadd: bad configuration directory!
I checked that the directory did not exist, so I created it and changed owner to `ldap`. The wiki page did not mention that the directory should be created earlier, so maybe it should have been created by a post installation script. If that's the case, I will report it to package maintainers.
After I created the directory, I ran the command again, this time having a different error message:
slapadd: could not add entry dn="cn=config" (line=1): Closing DB...
I have no idea what is wrong now and I cannot find anything useful on the internet. Does anyone have an idea what I may be doing wrong here?
