ObjectClass Violation
Hi
I am trying to add a new attributeType as well as new object class and I am getting "objectClass violation" error. I have looked closely to syntax and I can not spot anything wrong with the ldif file. Any ideas:
command:
=========
ldapmodify -h host -p port -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w password 杅 filename
filename.ldif:
=========
dn: cn=schema
objectClass: top
objectClass: ldapSubentry
objectClass: subschema
cn: schema
changeType: modify
add: attributeTypes
attributeTypes: ( mynewAtt1-oid NAME 'myNewAtt' DESC 'my New test attribute' SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 SINGLE-VALUE X-ORIGIN 'user defined' )
-
add: objectclasses
objectclasses: ( mynewobject-oid NAME 'TestObjectClass' DESC 'Structural class extending Person object class' SUP inetOrgPerson STRUCTURAL MAY( myNewAtt) X-origin 'Test object class')
error description:
=============
modifying entry cn=schema
ldap_modify_s: Object class violation
Please note that there is no funny character (including new line, tab, etc)in the attibuteTypes and objectTypes and there are all in one line.
Regards
Bob

This should work with a Sun Directory Server:
dn: cn=schema
changeType: modify
add: attributeTypes
attributeTypes: (mynewAtt-oid NAME 'myNewAtt' DESC 'my New test attribute' SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 SINGLE-VALUE X-ORIGIN 'user defined' )
-
add: objectclasses
objectclasses: (TestObjectClass-oid NAME 'TestObjectClass' DESC 'Structural class extending Person object class' SUP inetOrgPerson STRUCTURAL MAY( myNewAtt) X-origin 'Test object class' )

The LDIF specification mandate an initial space for continued lines.
Try this, it worked with my testing version of Directory Server 6.0 ;-)
dn: cn=schema
changeType: modify
add: attributeTypes
attributeTypes: (mynewAtt-oid NAME 'myNewAtt' DESC 'my New test attribute'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 SINGLE-VALUE X-ORIGIN 'user
defined' )
-
add: objectclasses
objectclasses: (TestObjectClass-oid NAME 'TestObjectClass' DESC
'Structural class extending Person object class' SUP inetOrgPerson
STRUCTURAL MAY ( myNewAtt ) X-origin 'Test object class' )

Many thanks for suggestions. I did have the leading blank line in my ldif file. However, I tried it again using cut and paste of your suggestion. No difference.
same error:
=========
ldapmodify: invalid format (line 5 of entry: cn=schema)
Any additional thought?

Bob, are you using a Sun Directory Server and are you using the ldapsearch utility that comes with the DS?
The modify instructions provided by Ludovic and those I did provide earlier to you are correct and do work as you can see below.
