ubuntu 1104 ldap server error 80

[lance bermudez]

reflowing guid at http://tuxnetworks.blogspot.com/2010...cid-short.html

only change i mad is dc=lbermudez,dc=net
to match my stuff. I'm creating a new database as in their is no prier database. every thing should be new.

lance@Therese:~$ sudo ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f ~/backend.ldif
SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
SASL username: gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn =auth
SASL SSF: 0
adding new entry "cn=module,cn=config"
ldap_add: Other (e.g., implementation specific) error (80)
additional info: <olcModuleLoad> handler exited with 1

[lance bermudez]

what is in the ldif file
# Load dynamic backend modules
dn: cn=module,cn=config
objectClass: olcModuleList
cn: module
olcModulepath: /usr/lib/ldap
olcModuleload: back_hdb

# Database settings

Maybe the following entry in ldif file is causing this

olcDatabase: {1}hdb

Try removing the {1} from there

hi, i have exactly the same problem
lance did you solve yours?

luvshines, i did try to remove "{1}" but it does not help. i don't think it should be removed. few tutorials have this in.

i have no idea why ldap has to be so unhumanly complicated

help!

[luvshines]

I think I got carried away with some other thoughts while making earlier comment

Maybe this launchpad bug points to same behavior you are observing:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...cs/+bug/677998

See if that fix helps

[wojtek.bogusz]

thank you luvshines U R * it works!

I also encountered this error. The fix provided from the launchpad works!

Just modify old backend ldif as suggested.
