Can you please give an explanation of the full meaning?? That way we can learn because online it refers to invalid credentials, providing the user is good, then the password is what left over See this example where I intentionally put the wrong password

root@nm03-lab-roc1:~/openldap_config_tree/2.1_replication# ldapsearch -Z -LLL -H ldap://servert:389 -D "uid=user,ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net" -W -b "ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net" "(mail=* ugonzalezhorta@breezeline.com)" cn Enter LDAP Password: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Yeah, the error message was misleading here, error 49 is wrong password, but I knew for sure the password was right. Maybe a log entry as the one you suggested will help you fast pinpoint the issue

That's not what result code 49 means.
