Hi Folks!

I'm newbie to LDAP and I received a mission to update the version.

Today is running Openldap 2.2.23 and I need to update to OpenLDAP 2.4.28. all update attempts failed. I observed that the new version have a different method of configuration.

What the best way to do this?

What error messages did you receive?

You can use slaptest (with both -f and -F options) to convert your configuration to the newer configuration database format (see man slapd-config), although you can still use a slapd.conf based configuration.

See chapters 10, 19, and appendix B of the OpenLDAP Administrator's Guide, and the man pages for slapcat/slapdd. You should dump the contents of your databases on the old system with slapcat, and slapadd them on the new installation.

Hi Dan,

I tried both settings.

This is the error message:

   50f066f8 str2entry: invalid value for attributeType objectClass #1

(syntax 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.38)

This error means that you have a value within your input, for an objectClass, which is invalid per rfc2252 and is not accepted by the newer version of slapd that you are using.

Try to found out which entry in your input is causing the error.
