SLDAP_ICM008
- LDAP add/modify request for &1&2 with mixture of text and binary values ?The SAP error message SLDAP_ICM008 indicates that there is an issue with an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) add or modify request that contains a mixture of text and binary values. This typically occurs when the data being sent to the LDAP server does not conform to the expected format, leading to a failure in the operation.
Cause:
The error is caused by the following scenarios:
- Mixed Data Types: The LDAP entry being modified or added contains attributes that are expected to be either text (string) or binary, but the request includes both types for the same attribute.
- Improper Encoding: The data being sent may not be properly encoded, leading to confusion between text and binary formats.
- Schema Violations: The LDAP schema may define certain attributes to accept only specific data types, and sending a mixture violates these constraints.
Solution:
To resolve the error, consider the following steps:
Check Data Types: Review the data being sent in the LDAP request. Ensure that each attribute is either entirely text or entirely binary. If an attribute is defined as a string, do not include binary data in that attribute.
Review LDAP Schema: Verify the LDAP schema definitions for the attributes you are trying to modify or add. Ensure that you are adhering to the expected data types for each attribute.
Encoding: Ensure that the data is properly encoded. If you are sending binary data, it may need to be base64 encoded, depending on the LDAP server's requirements.
Modify the Request: Adjust the LDAP request to ensure that it does not mix data types. If you need to send both text and binary data, consider using separate attributes for each type.
Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, test the LDAP operation again to confirm that the error has been resolved.
Related Information:
By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to successfully perform the LDAP add or modify request.
