Windows Development Environment - LDAP Startup Error Code: 19

[grhansen]

I'm trying to get Zimbra installed on my windows machine to do some zimlet development. I'm following the ZimbraServer/docs/install.txt, and have downloaded and installed the Zimbra source, JDK 1.5 and MySQL 4.1. I have openLDAP downloaded and installed in c:\opt\zimbra\openldap, and it is registered as a service. But when I try and run the ant task "reset-the-world" i get an error when trying to execute ant task "start-ldap-windows". I get an error code 19 from the ldap server, and according to the ldap master error page (www.directory-info.com/LDAP/LDAPErrorCodes.html) the following has happened "value specified in a modify, add, or modify DN operation violates constraints placed on the attribute".

I'm not familiar with LDAP at all, so any help on what might be causing my problem would be really appreciated.

I downloaded the windows binaries from their website, I'm using version 2.2.29-db-4.3.29.

Thanks.

I figured out what the problem is. I don't know if it's due to the version of openLDAP I'm using or what, but the slapd.conf file that gets generated during the ant build process is generating paths to three schema files that is not correct.

include "C:/opt/zimbra/openldap/etc/schema/core.schema"
include "C:/opt/zimbra/openldap/etc/schema/cosine.schema"
include "C:/opt/zimbra/openldap/etc/schema/inetorgperson.schema"

are not located by default in the C:/opt/zimbra/openldap/etc/schema folder, but just in the C:/opt/zimbra/openldap/schema folder. Once I copied these files into the C:/opt/zimbra/openldap/etc/schema folder and re-ran the ant task, the ldap server initialized properly.

Hopefully this will help someone else.

Thanks Greg. Yes, this is related to your version of OpenLDAP. I hit the same problem when I upgraded my build to 2.2.29. They changed the location of the schema files. I'll add a blurb about this to the install doc.
