Missing changetype operation specification on DSEE 6.3.1 ldapmodify

edited Jun 17, 2010 5:56PM in Identity Management (MOSC) 3 comments
 Hi.  I'm running into a problem trying to restore information from an .ldif file using ldapmodify.

I'm able to create an .ldif file using the command "..dsee/ds6/bin/dsconf export -v" providing the server name and user-dn credentials.  I provide the suffix and an include-dn specification to limit the 'backup' to one branch.

If I then use "dsee/ds6/bin/ldapmodify ldapmodify -v" command (providing the server name and user-dn credentials) to restore the branch from the just created .ldif file, I get:

ldapmodify: Missing changetype operation specification.
        The dn line must be followed by "changetype: operation"
        (unless ldapmodify is called with -a option)

Howdy, Stranger!
