With my ldap client, JXplore, I import a subtree and get this error message:
[LDAP: error code 21 - postalAddress: value #0 invalid per syntax]; remaining name 'uid=reskes@circa,ou=Users,ou=DATA,ou=fis-vl.bund.de,o=IRCusers,l=CIRCA'
The import job fails (same result with slapadd).
This are the data: postalAddress:: TmllZGVyc+RjaHNpc2NoZXMgTGFuZGVzYW10IGb8ciBWZXJicmF1Y2hlcnNj aHV0eiB1bmQgTGViZW5zbWl0dGVsc2ljaGVyaGVpdCwgRGV6ZXJuYXQgMjMsIFBvc3RmYWNoIDM 5NDksIDI2MDI5IE9sZGVuYnVyZw==

Hi all,
we have an very old openldap running and we need to migrate data to latest openldap version. I create an ldif but the data in that file are encoded "base64". Is there a trick to disable that? My plan is to export everything from openldap 2.2 database (lbdb) without base64 encoding so I can easily use slapadd to add this data to a database on my new openldap 2.4.2x system
Thank you for any idea.

RFC 4517 defines the Postal Address syntax as requiring the value to encoded in valid UTF-8, but that value appears to be encoded in some ISO-8851 variant. You'll need to reencode the value...and then verify that any applications reading that value handle it correctly.

You may try this instead:
postalAddress:: TmllZGVyc8OkY2hzaXNjaGVzIExhbmRlc2FtdCBmw7xyIFZlcmJyYXVjaGVyc2No dXR6IHVuZCBMZWJlbnNtaXR0ZWxzaWNoZXJoZWl0LCBEZXplcm5hdCAyMywgUG9z dGZhY2ggMzk0OSwgMjYwMjkgT2xkZW5idXJn
This is UTF-8 encoded (required by RFC4519+RFC4517).
