Unable to add user mailbox - cannot get ldap attributes
807574Jul 30 2009 — edited Feb 10 2020Hi,
I'm trying to install Messaging Server to run a simple mail test to see if a single user configured on this instance can successfully receive an email message. I've installed Sun Directory Server 6 U3 and Sun Messaging Server 7 U2, and added a user to the Directory Server by importing an ldif file that includes this user's information ("dsconf import" of the Directory Server's example.ldif file that I edited). However, on the Messaging Server I'm unable create a mailbox for this user and receive:
# mboxutil -c user/kvaughan/INBOX
create user/kvaughan/INBOX
Cannot get ldap attributes for user kvaughan: No such object
Error: Mailbox does not exist
#
On the Directory Server I can list this user:
# ldapsearch -h apps-solaris3 -p 389 -b dc=apps,dc=storcompany
dc=com "(uid=kvaughan)"
version: 1
dn: uid=kvaughan, ou=People, dc=apps,dc=storcompany,dc=com
cn: Kirsten Vaughan
sn: Vaughan
givenName: Kirsten
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
ou: Human Resources
ou: People
l: Sunnyvale
uid: kvaughan
mail: kvaughan@apps.storcompany.com
telephoneNumber: +1 408 555 5625
facsimileTelephoneNumber: +1 408 555 3372
roomNumber: 2871

I've basically followed the Communication Suite's 6 U2 wiki example of deploying Comm Suite 6 U2 on a Single Solaris host. Because of the small amount of system resources on my Sparc system, I chose to install only the Directory Server (and Messaging Server) component. I'm running Solaris 10 U4.
Any help, suggestions, pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
