I zeroed out the access and error logs in advance. The error log was empty; the access log was nothing but SRCH, BIND, and RESULT entries for my account. Nothing about access problems or attempted modifies.
A web search for this error message revealed one conversation in Jan 2009 that ended with "I fixed my aci and the problem went away". I haven't knowingly changed any acis since install. At the global level, user may change password. At the userRoot suffix level, user can change password and fine-grained policy is enabled. A password reset by directory manager succeeds and replicates around. Does anyone else recognize this?
Look for this sequence of operations in your directory server access
log.
