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 namingContext
this 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.
