---------------------------------------------
Hi,
what if you use dc=smtp,dc=company,dc=com,dc="" instead of the DN you are using
? (note the "" at the end) ?
> Unable to enter Base DN ending in 'dc='
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSTUDIO-161
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-161
> Project: Directory Studio
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: studio-browser
> Affects Versions: 0.8.1
> Environment: LDAP Studio 0.8.1 on Windows XP MCE 2005
> Reporter: Andy Deckowitz
>
> I'm trying to establish a Connection to an iPlanet LDAP server. The Base DN
> for this server is of the form 'dc=smtp,dc=company,dc=com,dc=' - note the
> trailing 'dc='. This Base DN is valid and mandatory - access to this server
> won't work without it.
> If I attempt the 'Fetch Base DNs' function, I get a
> java.lang.NullPointerException error while fetching the Base DN.
> If I leave 'Get base DNs from Root DSE' set, the Connection fails to open
> with an error of "Empty Value is not allowed! Can't set Base DN entry'.
> If I attempt to type in the actual Base DN, I get a popup that states 'Please
> enter a valid Base DN'.
> If I attempt any other value for Base DN, the connection fails with a LDAP
> error 32 - No Such Object.
> I am able to browse the server with the Novell ldapsearch and the LDAP
> Browser/Editor v2.8.2, but not with an OpenLDAP ldapsearch 2.3.30, if that
> helps anything.
> I don't know if relaxing the Base DN validation rule on the Connection form
> is enough to fix my issue as I see no way to test that scenario.
> Hand-editing the connections.xml (putting in a fake final dc=blah and then
> deleting the blah value from the file) does not seem to have done the trick.
