[Studi] OpenLDAP cn=config browser issue
Hello!
I encountered a weird issue on my setup lately and I'm not sure
what I did to break things.
I used to be able to browse and modify the cn=config OpenLDAP
tree within Studio.
I think the issue is with Studio because I can modify the
cn=config tree with ldapmodify using the RootDN of the config database.
For example:
$ cat setRO.ldif
# set a bd read-only
dn: olcDatabase={2}bdb,cn=config
changetype: modify
replace: olcReadOnly
olcReadOnly: TRUE
$ ldapmodify -W -D cn=Manager,cn=config -f setRO.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
modifying entry "olcDatabase={2}bdb,cn=config"
.... but if I connect with cn=Manager,cn=config with Studio I
no longer see the cn=config tree under the Root DSE. As I said earlier, it
used to work but I'm not sure what I did to break things, any idea ?
Thank you,
Olivier.

Thank you Pierre-Arnaud, you've found it.
I was looking at this page in the documentation:
http://directory.apache.org/studio/users-guide/ldap_browser/tasks_browse_directory_show_metadata.html
... but I couldnt find where this configuration was located.
Case closed and again many thanks for the wonderful support.

Hi Olivier
Can you verify the "Show Directory Metada" entry of the options menu from the Browser View is checked?
That's the little triangle menu in the Browser View where the entries tree is displayed.

Pierre-Arnaud
