newbie: ldapsearch returns dreaded 'no such object'
i'm attempting to migrate away from Netscape Directory Server and
onto OpenLDAP. i believe i have successfully loaded in a cleaned up
LDIF file (using slapadd) but can't get ldapsearch to return any
records. i'll paste below the relevant info below in the hopes that
i'm doing something stupid.
Platform: Redhat Linux (Linux 2.4.18 #3 SMP Fri Jul 26 16:27:29 MDT
2002 i686 unknown)
Version: OpenLDAP 2.0.23
example of failed search - i've tried MANY variations on this:
----------------
ldapsearch -v -x -b 'dc=aes,dc=org' 'cn=*' cn
ldap_initialize( <DEFAULT> )
filter: cn=*
requesting: cn
version: 2
#
# filter: cn=*
# requesting: cn
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 32 No such object
# numResponses: 1
----------------
example of what i think is a successful search:
----------------
ldapsearch -x -b '' -s base '(objectclass=*)' namingContexts
version: 2
#
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: namingContexts
#
#
dn:
namingContexts: dc=aes,dc=org
# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success
# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1
----------------
partial LDIF file: (actual file actually has 542 uids and 19 groups)
----------------
dn: dc=aes,dc=org
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organization
o: AES
dc: aes
dn: ou=AES,dc=aes,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalunit
ou: AES
dn: uid=sjohnson,ou=AES,dc=aes,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
givenName: Steve
sn: Johnson
cn: Steve Johnson
uid: sjohnson
userpassword: {SHA}<snipped>
dn: cn=Test,ou=AES,dc=aes,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: groupOfUniqueNames
cn: Test
uniqueMember: uid=sjohnson,ou=AES,dc=aes,dc=org
