Don't know about apache studio, but I've often had this sort of error
with command line ldapmodify when I've copied a windoze or os2 based
ldif file to unix and then updated it there. In almost every case,
I've tracked it down to a cr/lf problem.
Unlikely ...
Otherwise, there are many potential traps :
* no space after the ':' or '::'
* a multi-line value not starting with a space
* an attribute type with a non valid char in it
* a missing ':'
* a missing RC at the end of the file (not sure if it still generates an
error...)
* the #version:1 does not contain the valid '1' number
Without the file, it's hard to say ...
If this is possible in your case, edit the file under linux; go to
EVERY single end-of-line position and delete characters until the next
line concatenates with the current one; hit return. (repeat for every
line, including the last empty line).
A trick on linux/unix, to remove window$ ^M : open your file in vi, and
type :%s/^V^M// in command mode
(to produce the ^V, just hit the control key and the V key. The very
same for ^M). Doing the same with sed should also work...
