I am running 2.4.36 in my sandbox environment and have recently found myself needing to rename some entries in my directory. Slapd is reporting an object class violation when attempting to rename the entries even though all required attributes are present on the entry. I have a sample ldif that reproduces this problem.
...
dn: cn=testuser,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modrdn newrdn: uid=testuser deleteoldrdn: 1
Since the old RDN is the CN attribute, passing "deleteoldrdn: 1" asks the server to delete the CN attribute from the entry.

modifying rdn of entry "cn=testuser,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com" ldap_rename: Object class violation (65) additional info: object class 'inetOrgPerson' requires attribute 'cn'
As you can see from the ldif the cn attribute is clearly present. I am assuming this is a bug and needs reported but wanted to review it with the list members before I submitted the ITS entry.
No, you're telling it to the delete the CN attribute. If you don't want it to do that, put "deleteoldrdn: 0" in your LDIF instead.
