When recreating an ADAM directory for a project that uses custom object classes, I ran into a problem attempting to import my schema using Ldifde.exe using the following command line:
“ldifde -i -u -f export_prod_schema.ldf -s server:port -b username domain password -j . -c "cn=Configuration,dc=X" #configurationNamingContext”
Below is the error my logfile reported:
-
Entry DN: cn=xxxxx,cn=Schema,#configurationNamingContext
Add error on line 15: Invalid DN Syntax
The server side error is "The object name has bad syntax."
An error has occurred in the program
-
The problem was actually in Ldifde.exe itself. Apparently, the version of Ldifde.exe from the system32 directory does not support #macros. You have to use the version provided with the ADAM (%windir%\ADAM) installation.
Thanks to Dmitri Garilov for posting this in the news group.
