I am attempting to add a baseDN using ApacheDS and Eclipse, but have

I assume that you have an ApacheDS up and running, and are able to
connect from Groovy LDAP, i.e.
def ldap = LDAP.newInstance('ldap://localhost:10389', 'uid=admin,
ou=system' ,'secret')
works without an error.
As far as I understand your requirement, you plan to add a suffix,
"dc=epims, dc=com", and an entry below that.
Apache Directory Server comes with a default suffix "dc=example,dc=com"
for demonstration purposes, which maps to a partition (a data store)
within the configuration.
You therefore have to add a partition for your "dc=epims, dc=com". It is
not quite common to accomplish this administration task programmatically
(exception: an emedded server).
See details here
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/143-adding-your-own-partition-resp-suffix.html
Please note that this line
def baseDNAttrs = [ objectclass: ['top', 'ou'], sn: 'dc=epims dc=biz',
cn: 'epims' ]
does not make sense, because sn is an attribute type reprsesenting the
surname of a person.
Hope this helps,

Below is the attempt. I would love it if you could help.
package snippets.security.ldap.groovyldap.add
import org.apache.directory.groovyldap.LDAP
class AddEntryDemo
{
static main( args)
{
def ldap = LDAP.newInstance('ldap://localhost:10389', 'uid=admin,
ou=system' ,'secret')
// add the baseDN as a valid name entry
def baseDNAttrs = [ objectclass: ['top', 'ou'], sn: 'dc=epims dc=biz',
cn: 'epims' ]
ldap.add( 'ou: epims dc=epims dc=biz', baseDNAttrs)
assert ! ldap.exists('cn=Heather Nova, dc=epims, dc=biz') // checks for previous entry with this dn
// define the attributes as a map
def attrs = [ objectclass: ['top', 'person'], sn: 'Nova', cn: 'Heather
Nova' ]
ldap.add( 'cn=Heather Nova, dc=epims, dc=biz', attrs)
assert ldap.exists('cn=Heather Nova, dc=epims, dc=com')
}
}
