Why destroySubcontext() gives error code 32 - No Such Object

Hi,

I use Java code to delete a user from SUN ONE directory, but keep getting error code 32 - No Such Object

[LDAP: error code 32 - No Such Object]

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: [LDAP: error code 32 - No Such Object]; remaining name ''

The code is simple:

.......

DirContext ctx = this.getDirContext();

ctx.destroySubcontext("uid="+username+","+SEARCHBASE_DN);

.......

the "uid="+username+","+SEARCHBASE_DN returns as uid=SKing,ou=People,dc=uchicago,dc=edu and I have enough privilege as cn=Directory Manager.

What went wrong here? Your help will be apprecaited,

So the question is if this ID really exists in your server? You can do an ldapsearch first.

Solution is simple...

Pls dont use SEARCH_DN in the API as it is already there in the context.

for example

your search dn is --> ou=test,ou=com and your entry is

uid=test,ou=users,ou=test,ou=com then in the API just pass uid=test,ou=users not the whole dn

thanks
