Are objects "ou=People,dc=inside,dc=domain,dc=org" and "dc=inside,dc=domain,dc=org"
already in directory? You've set up database suffix "dc=inside,dc=domain,dc=org", so parent objects up to suffix object itself (dc=inside), must be present - or included in ldif file before the final object. There's matched DN returned in error message ( object, which message "no such object" reflects ).
