Modify

[David R. <d.r...@qu...>]

Hi,

I'm having a tough time trying to get a modify working, the code below
is failing and I know it is just because I don't quite understand the
syntax.  What I am trying to do is remove all the listed attributes from
the entry (which do exist).  Can someone please help me....

Code:

# Unconditional delete of existing memberships.
my %qv_del_arry = ( mailListRecv => [], mailListSend => [], 
		    mailListAdmin => [], mailListModerator => [] );
printf( "Modify '%s'\n", $entry->dn() );
my $mesg = $ldap->modify( $entry, delete => { %qv_del_arry } );
if( $mesg->code != LDAP_SUCESS ) {
	printf( "%s LDAP modify failed (delete membership), exiting. SERVER
ERROR = %s\n", 
			$NICE_TIME, $mesg->error );
	exit( 1 );
}

This produces the output:

Modify 'clientID=23055, ou=People, o=QUT'
2001-04-27 17:02:51 LDAP modify failed (delete membership), exiting.
SERVER ERROR = modify: delete values failed

I have tried all sorts of combinations, thanks in advance.
