Re: How to add "dc=myExample,dc=com": Basic doubt

[Noriko Hosoi <nhosoi@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Please take a look at this doc:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Configuring_Directory_Databases.html#Configuring_Directory_Databases-Creating_and_Maintaining_Suffixes

You need to create a suffix "dc=myExample,dc=com" following the instructions described in this section (if you use command line interface).
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Configuring_Directory_Databases.html#Creating_Suffixes-Creating_Root_and_Sub_Suffixes_from_the_Command_Line

In the Example 2.1, The mapping tree entry dn is represented as follows:

dn: cn=dc=example\,dc=com,cn=mapping tree,cn=config

This works, but it is an old format.  Please replace it with this dn in the Example 2.1.

dn: cn="dc=example,dc=com",cn=mapping tree,cn=config

Thanks,

Hi,

I am new to 389 and LDAP in general.

I have 389 installed on my CentOS (389-ds-base-1.2.11.15-31.el6_5.x86_64)

I have the basic dc=example,dc=com created when I did server setup.

[root@localhost vim]# ldapsearch -x -b "dc=example,dc=com" -s base

# extended LDIF

#

# LDAPv3

# base <dc=example,dc=com> with scope baseObject

# filter: (objectclass=*)

# requesting: ALL

#

# example.com

dn: dc=example,dc=com

objectClass: top

objectClass: domain

dc: example

# search result

search: 2

result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2

# numEntries: 1

Now I am trying to create a new object on that line. I want to create dc=myExample,dc=com

[root@localhost vim]# ldapadd -f myExample.ldif -x -W

Enter LDAP Password: 

adding new entry "dc=myExample,dc=com"

ldap_add: No such object (32)

How can I create the entry dc=myExample,dc=com?

The content of myExample.ldif is as follows (similar to see what I saw in search output of dc=example,dc=com ).

dn: dc=myExample,dc=com

objectClass: top

objectClass: domain

dc: myExample

Thanks,

Vimal
