This is my newely created schema file in my ldap server for adding the attributes. But when i try to restart the ldap service i got the below error,

Why are you making your life difficult? Just add entries like this:
dn: cn=Saju Kuttan,ou=solution,dc=test,dc=com objectClass: inetOrgPerson cn: Saju Kuttan sn: Kuttan givenName: Saju description: Saju Kuttan in the Oracle team telephoneNumber: 9891950975 mail: csaju@hcl.in
There doesn't seem to be an attribute for the Nick Name field in Outlook, see: http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/294.html

Well, it means exactly what it says. There's a parenthesis missing at the end of your objectClass declaration. Maybe you should not place the last ) in an extra line. Rather let the line about end like this:
Nickname $ Additional info ) )
Hmm, I've never seen attribute type NAMEs with spaces. I thought this is not allowed either.
Ciao, Michael.

"Additional info" is no a valid attribute name. Either you meant "Additional $ info", i.e. two separate attributes, or "Additionalinfo".
