Re: Are my ldapadd and ldapsearch accessing the DB ?
Hi Christian,
here is my slapd.conf file. I have the referral and suffix specified. Since
I'm looking at only a stand alone ldap server, I do not need a 'working'
referral. The value for referral is juz a dummy that will appear as a
debugging message if the data is not found on this server.
slapd.conf file:
___________________________________________________________________

Hi,
what is your slapd.config? especially the section 'referral'?
have you added also the complete suffix?
Kind regards,
Chris

Subject: Are my ldapadd and ldapsearch accessing the DB ?
Hi Folks,
this is one more LDAP newbie trying to get a directory service working. I
started with installing a Berkeley Sleepycat (ldbm) database and later
installed the latest version of the openldap server.
As far as I can gather, I have got the ldap server running on our research
machine listening to port 3089 (with command "./slapd "ldap://:3089";)
I then continued with the "Add initial entries to your directory" step in
the openldap quickstart guide. The ldif file is as follow:
___________________________
dn: o=dsm.ics.uci.edu,c=US
objectclass: organization
o: dsm.ics.uci.edu
dc: dsm.ics.uci.edu
dn: cn=Manager,o=dsm.ics.uci.edu,c=US
objectclass: organizationalRole
cn: Manager
___________________________
Issued the command:
___________________________
./ldapadd -h agastya.ics.uci.edu -p 3089 -x -D
"cn=Manager,o=dsm.ics.uci.edu,c=US" -W -f composeldif.ldif
___________________________
and got the results:
___________________________
Enter LDAP Password:
adding new entry "o=dsm.ics.uci.edu,c=US"
ldap_add: Referral
ldif_record() = 10
___________________________
At this moment, I'm not sure from the message if the add has gone
right. Nor do I understand what "ldap_add: Referral" means. So, I issued a
ldapsearch command:
___________________________
./ldapsearch -h agastya.ics.uci.edu -p 3089 -x -b 'o=dsm.ics.uci.edu,c=US'
'(objectclass=*)'
___________________________
And got to see the output:
___________________________
version: 2
#
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 10 Referral
ref: ldap://oops.i.did.it.again
# numResponses: 1
___________________________
My Question:
I don't see the base dn in the output. DOes that mean my install has a
problem ?
Also, I'm looking to run a single ldap server. I need no referral
setup. The ref url specified is used more as a debugging message when the
command doesn't work. What does "result: 10 Referral" mean ?!
I looked for a similar issue on the archives but found a mail that was
unanswered. Hence, this now !
thanks in advance,
~suraj
