RE: Unable to add entries

[Pravin Joshi <pjoshi@CHARJIV.com>]

Dear Sir,

Thanks for the reply. However, there was no other directory installed on the
machine. I downloaded symas binaries and installed them.

Another point to mention here, when I gave the command 'cdsserver start', it
gave me error. So i tried './cdsserver start' and it worked. Same is with
ldapsearch. But later ldapsearch started working in normal fashion.

Surprisingly, dc: myDomain has started working now. I am aware, I am totally
new to ldap though I have enough experience in s/w industry. Please don't
consider the questions as silly. I am posting it after giving try for hours.
I request you to please continue replying generously as you are doing now.
Thank you so much Sir.

Regards
Pravin Joshi

This entry is incorrect. It needs "dc: test3" in the entry to match its DN.

You are not using the Symas binaries. We build with debugging enabled, so
our
binaries would never give you this message. Check your path, and/or remove
whatever previous version you had installed.
