[ApacheDS] ERR_04269 ATTRIBUTE_TYPE for OID documentidentifier does not exists
I am trying to add a document to an ou programatically. I am using ApacheDS
2.0.0-M17. I am also using Apache Directory Studio 2.0.0.v20130628.
I am able to connect to the server localhost, at port 10389, and am working in
partition dc=test,dc=com (for this example).
The following organizational units exist in the partition - persistent
(ou=persistent,dc=test,dc=com), and under persistent, documentStore
(ou=documentStore,ou=persistent,dc=test,dc=com).
If I import a document into the documentStore ou using an ldif import, it
works. The ldif file contains only the following lines:
dn: documentIdentifier=D1,ou=documentStore,ou=persistent,dc=test,dc=com
objectClass: document
documentIdentifier: D1
I can also create the document by right clicking on the ou node in the LDAP
browser, selecting New->New Entry (or New->New Context Entry; both seem to open
the same dialog). In the dialog, I select Create entry from scratch, click
Next, and select document from the Available object classes. This adds
document and top to the Selected object classes. I then click Next. For RDN,
I enter documentIdentifier and D2 to the entry fields, and click (yep, you
guessed it!) Next. This shows three attributes ... two objectClass values
(document and top), and one documentIdentifier value (D2), as expected. The
dialog indicates that these are must attributes. I then click Finish, and the
document node is displayed in the LDAP Browser in AD
Studio.
Next, I try to create a document entry from a short java program. I can
successfully create an ou using the program, by creating an InitialDirContext
(let's call it idc. I can then create an ou using the following code:
// The InitialDirContext is created using dn:
ou=documentStore,ou=persistent,dc=test,dc=com
// The argument ouName is set to the value ou=anotherOu
public void createOu( String ouName )
{
try
{
// CreateOu attributes to be associated with the new context
Attributes attrs = new BasicAttributes(true); // case-ignore
Attribute objclass = new BasicAttribute("objectclass");
objclass.add("top");
objclass.add("organizationalUnit");
attrs.put(objclass);
// CreateOu the context
Context result = idc.createSubcontext(ouName, attrs);
// Close the context when we're done
result.close();
}
catch ( NamingException e )
{
System.err.println( "LdapTest::createOu(): " + e.getMessage() );
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
This code completes successfully, and the new ou, anotherOu, is visible in the
LDAP Browser, when I reload the directoryStore ou.
Finally, I modify the code above to attempt to programatically add a document
to the documentStore ou. The modified code is as follows:
// The InitialDirContext is created using dn:
ou=documentStore,ou=persistent,dc=test,dc=com
// The argument docName is set to the value documentIdentifier=D3
public void createDocument( String docName )
{
try
{
// CreateOu attributes to be associated with the new context
Attributes attrs = new BasicAttributes(true); // case-ignore
Attribute objclass = new BasicAttribute("objectclass");
objclass.add("top");
objclass.add("document");
attrs.put(objclass);
// CreateOu the context
Context result = idc.createSubcontext(docName, attrs);
// Close the context when we're done
result.close();
}
catch ( NamingException e )
{
System.err.println( "LdapTest::createDocument(): " + e.getMessage() );
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
When I run this code, I get the following exception message and stack trace:

I am a novice LDAP user, and freely admit I don't understand it very well. Any
assistance in identifying my error, or identifying a solution, would be greatly
appreciated.
