hello all,
we are trying to setup a ldap server which uses the mysql as back-end instead of bdb backend.we have installed slapd and ldap-utils in debian-etch .we also have installed mylibodbc, mysql-client-5,mysql-server-5. we have established the mysql-ODBC connectivity and tested the connectivity using isql.we have configured the slapd.conf file to connect mysql and when we tried to add entries using ldapadd , we get the following err
ldap_add: Server is unwilling to perform (53) additional info: operation not permitted within namingContextthis is the slapd.conf file
Do you realize that most of the directives in your slapd.conf are back-bdb specific, and thus meaningless when using back-sql? Do you realize that back-sql is NOT a transparent replacement for back-bdb? How did you define the LDAP to SQL mappings in the database? Did you read http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/978.html? Did you ultimately read http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/378.html?
Short answer to your specific problem: back-sql needs specific mapping between LDAP and SQL data to allow writing (in that case, adding an entry). Probably, you didn't provide any.
