Error adding user in kolab webadmin

[jayk]

When trying to add a new user in the web admin, I get the following error:

Code:

Warning: ldap_add() [function.ldap-add]: Add: Internal (implementation specific) error in /var/www/kolab/htdocs/admin/user/user.php on line 734

Code:

LDAP Error: could not add object cn=Firstname Lastname,dc=domain,dc=suffix: Internal (implementation specific) error

This is a kolab 2.1 server that has been in operation for a long time. It has been through a few package upgrades since any users were last added.

openldap version is 2.3.41

Thanks,

Perhaps its a schema issue w/ openldap/slapd?

maybe kolabconf would fix it?

increase the log level from 0 to 2 in /etc/openldap/slapd.conf  then restart the service and check /var/log/messages for anything relevant.

I tried doing kolabconf already. It was a no go.

I'll increase the log level and see what I can find.

Thanks,

OK, trying to add the user with the increased logging yields this in /var/log/messages:

Code:

Apr 30 08:37:20 mainsrv slapd[21742]: bdb_db_cache: db_open(givenName) failed: Permission denied (13)
Apr 30 08:37:20 mainsrv slapd[21742]: bdb_index_read: Could not open DB givenName

Check the permissions on /var/lib/openldap-data/givenName.bdb

It should be:
-rw-------  1 ldap ldap 8.0K Mar  7 21:47 givenName.bdb

[jayk]

Ahhh. That did it. Somehow the ownership on givenName.bdb and kolabHomeServer.bdb were set to root.

Thanks very much,
Jason
