I'm trying to set up an OpenLDAP server on ubuntu 9.10, which uses slapd version 2.4.18.



After initializing and populating a new hdb database, everything seems OK, but I can not get the server to return a root DSE. Running



ldapsearch -x -W -D 'cn=manager,dc=example,dc=org' 
-b '' -s base '(objectclass=*)' +


just returns



# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <> with scope baseObject
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: +
#

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 1


My hdb database ACLs are set up as follows:



olcAccess: to attrs=userPassword,shadowLastChange
by self write
by anonymous auth
by dn.base="cn=manager,dc=example,dc=org" write
by * none
olcAccess: to dn.base=""
by * read
olcAccess: to *
by self write
by dn.base="cn=manager,dc=example,dc=org" write
by * read


From my experience this setup should have returned a valid root DSE, so if anyone could give me a clue as to what is going on...

          This is actually filed as bug #427842 agains Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic).



          To fix this, copy the following to fixRootDSE.ldif:



          dn: olcDatabase=-1frontend,cn=config
          changetype: modify
          add: olcAccess

          This should give anonymous access to the root DSE.

            Isn't the Root DSE supposed to be queried anonymously, before binding as a user? So you shouldn't be using -W or -D at all.



            My OpenLDAP server responds to the following:



            $ ldapsearch -x -b '' -s base

            • You're right, if the ldap server is configured right, you don't need to bind a user. But I get the same result both when I query anonymously and bind a user. And I don't get a unauthenticated response. So somehow the server don't answer any details about itself.

            For those who will get this error in Apache Directory Studio.



            If you can see root DSE content in other browsers or ldapsearch, try create new connection. It helped me. I think it is a bug in Apache DS.






            share|improve this answer























            • For others passing by, and having Apache DS or PHPLdapAdmin bug where Root DSE has no children, this is more likely to be a server problem (especially since LDAPAdmin does not have encounter it)

                      Isn't the Root DSE supposed to be queried anonymously, before binding as a user? So you shouldn't be using -W or -D at all.



                      My OpenLDAP server responds to the following:



                      $ ldapsearch -x -b '' -s base


                      with

                      # LDAPv3
                      # base <> with scope baseObject
                      # filter: (objectclass=*)

                      • You're right, if the ldap server is configured right, you don't need to bind a user. But I get the same result both when I query anonymously and bind a user. And I don't get a unauthenticated response. So somehow the server don't answer any details about itself.

                      For those who will get this error in Apache Directory Studio.



                      If you can see root DSE content in other browsers or ldapsearch, try create new connection. It helped me. I think it is a bug in Apache DS.

                      • For others passing by, and having Apache DS or PHPLdapAdmin bug where Root DSE has no children, this is more likely to be a server problem (especially since LDAPAdmin does not have encounter it)
