That was my understanding, that I only needed to include the schema I was trying to convert. The "test.conf" file ONLY had the schema for conversion included. And since "organization" does come from the base schema, I'm wondering WHY I'm getting this error on conversion. I have included the problematic object definition earlier in this thread, and I really don't see why I'm failing. I can post the entire schema I'm trying to convert if that would help. I'm really quite stumped. This should be a simple conversion, but why I'm failing when attempting to attach to an existing objectClass is beyond my understanding.

You should absolutely not be including elements from other schema into the file simply for the purpose of conversion, as you will end up with a file you won't be able to import to cn=config if it has those other schema included.  And, if it had all the elements as you claim, then you certainly wouldn't be getting an error about the "organization" objectClass being missing, given that that comes from the "core" schema file.
