comparison does not work

[Bing Du <du...@mo...>]

I'm sure I did not do it right.  But I don't know how to.
Here is my problem.  An entry looks like this (I simplified it):

dn:uid=0fe191b59b43ef9a2a5b0d468e69613b, ou=People, dc=tamu, dc=edu
majorSuppress: TRUE
major: BIOL

$localmesg = $ld->compare($dn,attr => 'major', value =>
'BIOL') returns 6 which is what I expected.

But $localmesg = $ld->compare($dn,attr => 'majorSuppress',value =>
'TRUE') returns 18 which translate to
"LDAP_INAPPROPRIATE_MATCHING: Indicates that the matching rule specified 
in the search filter does not match a rule defined for the attribute's
syntax.."

Where should I look?  Thanks for any help!
