Difference betwenn the errors:

what is the difference between the following errors that come while importing an ldif into a DS

1)Already Exists

2)Type or value exists

Iam very much confused with these as when i search for those entries that are rejected with the error -2, they seem to be good except with some attribute changes....

So does this error -2 is shown when there are different attributes(i.e.between the entry in the 'imported file' and 'same entry present in the DS).

Regards

Already exists (error code 68) applies to Entries.

Type or value exists (error code 20) applies to attributes and values.

During an import this happens if an attribute contains twice the same value (illegal per LDAPv3 specs) or the attribute is present more than once in the LDIF (and not in contiguous lines).
