issues with adding my own partition resp. suffix in conf/server.xml

[robin bajaj <ro...@gmail.com>]

I am trying to do the following
Adding your own partition resp.
suffix<http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.0/14-basic-configuration-tasks.html#1.4.Basicconfigurationtasks-Addingyourownpartitionresp.suffix>
by following this section in apacheds 1.x user's guide
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.0/14-basic-configuration-tasks.html#1.4.Basicconfigurationtasks-Addingyourownpartitionresp.suffix


I make the changes in the conf/server.xml file and restart the server. But I
still don't see it pick up my changes.
I have tried using both softerra ldap browser and jxplorer ldap client (with
the same results.)

is it a known bug in apacheds or is there something wrong that I am doing in
this case,
my OS is windowsXP.
thanks in advance for any helpful pointers,
robin

Hi Markus!

Nice to see how you act on the Apache Directory users list. I would like 
to say thanks for your help here, Markus! It is appreciated not only by 
the users you have already supported, but by the Directory PMC as well. 
We are looking forward to see you getting more involved in the project, 
if you are interested.

Greetings from Hamburg,
     Stefan

Hi Emmanuel,

of course you are right! :-) Robin, use apache directory studio, give  
it a try. I use it myself and it is really good. By the way, when  
using apache directory studio, you have >>three<< more things you can  
test according to your own partition:

7th: after downloading and installing directory studio create a new  
connection and within this connection assistent on the first page  
click on the "check network parameter" button and see if it says that  
the connection was established successfully.

8th: on the second page of assistent enter bind dn or user and  
password (something like uid=admin,ou=system / secret ) and click on  
"check authentication" and see if it says that authentication was  
successfull.

9th: on the last page click on "fetch base dns" and you should see all  
base dns including your own partition.

if not, check my first email :-)

don't forget: do not panic :-) we are here and we will help you - for sure!

Greetings
Markus

Thanks for the "howto", Markus :)

I would add a 6th :
Give Apache Directory Studio a try, instead of using Jxplorer or ldapbrowser
! (self promotion for our *great* browser :)

Hi Robin,

there is no bug in apacheds with adding your own partition :-)

first: did you really made the changes like shown in the example? did  
you added a ref bean entry in contextPartitionConfigurations with your  
partitions id, like seen in the example?

second: is it sure that there is no misspelling between  
contextPartitionConfigurations bean entry and the id in your partition?

third: what do you see, when you try to bind to your apacheds ldap? do  
you see as root entries ou=schema or ou=system?

fourth: can you bind to the ldap server? is it really running? what  
does the apacheds-rolling.log logfile say?

fifth: from your server.xml file paste the  
contextPartitionConfigurations section and your own partition  
configuration.

Greetings
Markus
