Can you add a "-v" to the front of the args?

dsidm -v INSTANCE ... ...

Well, I did try this:

dsidm -b "dc=example,dc=com" -D "cn=Directory Manager" <instance> initialise
Enter password for cn=Directory Manager on ldap://localhost:389:

Bur after putting the password, I get this:

Error: No such object

I also get the same error when I try to create a new user using dsidm and dsctl <instance> status shows as running, I even deleted the instance and try to recreate it using cockpit and I checked to include sample data in it, but nothing shows up.

Any other ideas?

Well the cockpit UI does not show database tree structure (we do want to add this though, but it's not happening anytime soon).  When you say nothing shows up, what are you looking at?  Does ldapsearch show you what you expect? 

     # ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -W -b <YOUR SUFFIX> objectclass=*


Of course, checking the server's access log will tell you if a client connected, what it searched for, and how many entries were returned.

HTH,

Mark


Thanks.

If you have a blank backend, you can populate it with sample entries with "dsidm <instance name> initialise". Have a look at this quickstart for the dsrc setup

Hope that helps,
