RE: Newbie - error in Slapd.conf

Hi - it looks to me like that line is incomplete.  You are telling
it to make indexes for cn, sn and uid but not giving it the conditions
afterwards (such as pres,eq).  Hope that helps - Michael

Dear all,

I installed OpenLdap 2.1.xx in Redhat Linux, but cannot start slapd with 
the following err msg:

[root@redhat ~]# /usr/local/libexec/slapd
/usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf: line 66: no indexes selected

The offending line in slapd.conf is:

# ldbm indexed attribute definitions
index cn,sn,uid  

and the rest of the content of slapd.conf is as follow:
index objectclass pres,eq
index default none
# ldbm access control definitions
defaultaccess read
access to attr=userpassword
by self write
by dn="cn=admin, o=rock, c=com" write
by * compare

I compiled Openldap with ldbm enabled. what can I do to fix the problem?

thanks so much.
Sam
