When initializing a consumer, I get many messages similar to this: import userRoot: WARNING: Skipping entry "uid=davsmith,ou=win,ou=People,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com" which has no parent, ending at line 0 of file "(bulk import)" It is believed that all affected entries had been moved within the directory using a moddn change in the past few months (using Apache Directory Studio). I was just able to "break" another account by doing this same action and reinitializing my consumer. Move entry: #!RESULT OK #!CONNECTION ldap://dalldap001.maxim-ic.com:389 #!DATE 2012-08-28T12:01:56.870 dn: uid=test4phy,ou=People,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com changetype: moddn newrdn: uid=test4phy deleteoldrdn: 1 newsuperior: ou=bri,ou=People,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com Re-init: [28/Aug/2012:18:05:36 +0100] - import userRoot: WARNING: Skipping entry "uid=test4phy,ou=bri,ou=People,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com" which has no parent, ending at line 0 of file "(bulk import)" Moving the account back to it's original location and reinitializing the consumer again "fixes" it. The entry does not appear on the consumer until I reinitialize. If I remember correctly, in the past, I was not able to do a moddn (A few months back I moved from 1.2.5 to 1.2.10). Is moddn considered safe? If I copy and paste the entry to the new location and delete the old entry manually, this works just fine. I also get one instance of this message on each initialize: import userRoot: WARNING: Skipping entry "nsuniqueid=2dca7101-594d11df-8622cf4b-918cdd63,uid=fxdtest,ou=chm,ou=People,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com" which has no parent, ending at line 0 of file "(bulk import)" This one really confuses me since nsuniqueid isn't an entry, it's an attribute. Even stranger is that the value of nsuniqueid in the error message does not match the current value: dn: uid=fxdtest,ou=chm,ou=People,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com createTimestamp: 20120827200045Z creatorsName: uid=whardin,ou=dal,ou=people,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com entrydn: uid=fxdtest,ou=chm,ou=people,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com entryid: 13315 hasSubordinates: FALSE modifiersName: uid=whardin,ou=dal,ou=people,dc=maxim-ic,dc=com modifyTimestamp: 20120827200214Z nsUniqueId: d2729e81-f08111e1-8cbef100-4e39c57a numSubordinates: 0 parentid: 5877 passwordGraceUserTime: 0 subschemaSubentry: cn=schema I have deleted and recreated this account in the past few days.
