#104 Cannot modify or add an entry containing umlauts in DN
Hello,
we are using umlauts in our DNs and try to modify
some attributes of these entries, but following errors occure for
ou=Universität,ou=Departments,o=Universitaet Marburg,c=DE
"Error renaming entry"
or for
ou=Fb01,ou=Universität,ou=Departments,o=Universitaet Marburg,c=DE
"You can only change the RDN of the DN (FB01)"
Direct modification of Entries by LDIF-files works perfectly. It seems, that GQ has some coding problems to convert the DNs into their correct LDAP-representation.
Kind regards
Andreas

Which codeset do you use on the LDAP server, are the entries encoded with UTF8 or with ISO-8859-1?
Logged In: NO
Hi,
we are using openLDAP 2.2.23. AFAIK, there exists no encoding option in the configuration of openLDAP.
All entries are encoded in UTF8.

Okay, can you provide a small ldif dump to get this reproducable?

Sorry, I didn't reported that the problem is solved. It's really trivial.
The locale setting of the console was wrong (de_DE.iso88591).
Setting locale to de_DE.utf8 before starting gq solved the problem.
bash> export LANG=de_DE.utf8
:)
Kind regards
