Problem 1005 (constraint_att_type)
more than just "constraint violation" when they attempt to change their password? Something like "password must be 7 or more characters", instead of leaving them guessing?

Err 19, LDAP_CONSTRAINT_VIOLATION - Indicates that the attribute value specified in a modify, add, or modify DN operation violates constraints placed on the attribute. The constraint can be one of size or content (string only, no binary). Most of the LDAP server already provide enough information about missing piece in password or attribute. Could you check 389 Directory server or RHDS.

In order to change the password I am currently stuck figuring out how to use ldapmodify to do so. After a lot of reading on different sites/forums/newsgroups I am much more confused than before However: I try the following command to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9989548/ldap-constraint-violation-when-changing-password-in-ad-through-ldapmodify do so: ldapmodify -f ldif.example -H ldaps://lab01-dc01.example.com -D 'CN=test,CN=users,DC=lab01,DC=example,DC=com' -x -W The contents of the ldif.example: dn: CN=test,CN=Users,DC=lab01,DC=example,DC=com changetype: modify delete: unicodePwd unicodePwd:: V3VQdXV1STEyLg== - add: unicodePwd unicodePwd:: QmxhVVVraTEyLg== - (Don't worry - those passwords are not used anywhere and it is not a production envoirenment) Now - every time I execute the command I get the following error: modifying entry CN=test,CN=Users,DC=lab01,DC=example,DC=com" ldapmodify: Constraint violation (19) additional info: 0000216C: AtrErr: DSID-03190EB0, #1: 0: 0000216C: DSID-03190EB0, problem 1005 (CONSTRAINT_ATT_TYPE), data 0, Att 9005a (unicodePwd) Now, after what I read the reason for this error is either that the password is badly formatted or that the password policy doesn't allow the password I used. I checked the policy - multiple times now - and the new password definetly complies to the policy by all the criteria. If I set the password using a Windows-machine it also works well (of course I changed the "oldpassword" and "newpassword" afterwards since I am not allowed by the policy to change to an earlier password). The password I enter after passing the "-W" option to ldapmodify is also definetly right, otherwise the error spit out by ldapmodify is that I used invalid credentials instead of a constraint violation. So - the sole reason I can think of is indeed a bad formatted pa

When changing the userPassword attribute I invariably get the message "[Error 19] Constraint violation". To rule out any ldap error security-problems I've also tried this with the cn=Directory Manager logon to no avail. I'm running LDAP Administrator on WinNT 4 Service Pack 6 with Internet Explorer 5.5. The server is iPlanet Directory Server 5.1 on Solaris 8 (if that matters). What can I do to make it work? elaan Posts: 13Joined: Fri Aug 02, 2002 12:00 am Top by Support » Mon Aug 19, 2002 1:26 am
There are a lot of reasons when the ldap error code iPlanet (formerly Netscape) server returns this error. Here is an extract from the Netscape SDK:
The request adds or modifies the userpassword attribute, and one of the following is true:
- The server is configured to check the password syntax, and the length of the new password is less than the minimum password length.
- The server is configured to check the password syntax, and the new password is the same as one of the values of the uid, cn, sn, givenname, ou, or mail attributes.
- The server is configured to keep a history of previous passwords, and the new password is the same as one of the previous passwords.

I've tried this with: - at least 10 different passwords; - passwords that I know are not in the history; - with the password-history cleared; - with the password-history disabled; - etc. Moreover: I have tried changing the password with LDAP Administrator and got "[Error 19] constraint violation". Immideately thereafter I tried changing the same user via the iPlanet Console, giving it the same password and succe

Contents 1 Overview 2 Standard Error Codes 3 Customized Error Codes 1 Overview You can see error codes when issues occur with your LDAP connection. An error code is associated with each type of issue. 2 Standard Error Codes Error / Data Code Error Description 0 LDAP_SUCCESS Indicates the requested client operation completed successfully. 1 LDAP_OPERATIONS_ERROR Indicates an internal error. The server is unable to respond with a more specific error and is also unable to properly respond to a request. It does not indicate that the client has sent an erroneous message. In NDS 8.3x through NDS 7.xx, this was the default error for NDS errors that did not map to an LDAP error code. To conform to the new LDAP drafts, NDS 8.5 uses 80 (0x50) for such errors. 2 LDAP_PROTOCOL_ERROR Indicates that the server has received an invalid or malformed request from the client. 3 LDAP_TIMELIMIT_EXCEEDED Indicates that the operation's time limit specified by either the client or the server has been exceeded. On search operations, incomplete results are returned. 4 LDAP_SIZELIMIT_EXCEEDED Indicates that in a search operation, the size limit specified by the client or the server has been exceeded. Incomplete results are returned. 5 LDAP_COMPARE_FALSE Does not indicate an error condition. Indicates that the results of a compare operation are false. 6 LDAP_COMPARE_TRUE Does not indicate an error condition. Indicates that the results of a compare operation are true. 7 LDAP_AUTH_METHOD_NOT_SUPPORTED Indicates that during a bind operation the clien
