Sorry for my english. If I play "slapadd -d -1 -n 0 -l /tmp/config.ldif", there is the error above. If I specify "-F /etc/ldap/slap.d" in the slapadd command, it works fine. Do you know why?
I have a guess, based on symptoms in my own environment. In my case:
I have two versions of OpenLDAP installed (with corresponding slapadd binaries).
The one in my path the default one that came with the OS. I later installed a newer version of OpenLDAP, to introduce some key feature.
The default slapadd has some default sense of where config files are, but my DB is being driven by a different set of config files (associated with the newer installation).
When I try to use the CLI tools, I have to expressly tell the tool where the correct config files are, to perform the operation I need.
Thanks,
