Troubles with GAL.

[simonfishley]

Hi All

I am trialling ZCS 6.0 on a clean install of Debian 5.0. I have configured the server to auth against our own OpenLDAP server - all good. I then configured the servers GAL to check against that same LDAP server. At the end of that process it asks for a test input which works perfectly. returns results as I would expect from my ldap server.

Now the Problem. when I compose a new message in the web interface from my user account and I want to search the GAL I get the following error:

A network service error has occurred.
method:	SearchGalRequest
msg:	system failure: ldap search failed
code:	service.FAILURE
detail:	soap:Receiver
trace:	btpool0-34:1254922778391:bf27ef09524bf8f6

Body: {
  SearchGalRequest: {
    _jsns: "urn:zimbraAccount",
    limit: 50,
    name: "si",
    offset: 0,
    sortBy: "nameAsc",
    type: "account"
   }
 },
Header: {
  context: {
    _jsns: "urn:zimbra",
    account: {
      _content: "simon@saao.ac.za",
      by: "name"
     },
    authToken: "(removed)",
    notify: {
      seq: 2
     },
    session: {
      _content: 1224,
      id: 1224
     },
    userAgent: {
      name: "ZimbraWebClient - FF3.0 (Mac)",
      version: "6.0.1_GA_1816.DEBIAN5"
     }
   }
 }

My GAL conf looks like this:

Server type: LDAP
LDAP filter: (mail=%s*)
Autocomplete filter: (|(cn=%s*)(sn=%s*)(gn=%s*)(mail=%s*))
LDAP search base: dc=domain
LDAP URL: ldap://ldap.server:389
Bind DN:

Can anyone suggest what may be the cause of this?

Thanks in advance.
Simon

EDIT - I can also successfully run an ldap search from the command line of the ZCS Server.
