sudo slapadd < ldapdata.txt
slap_sasl_init: auxprop add plugin failed
slapadd: slap_init failed!
Where is the problem ?

When asking questions please paste the version of the software in question (in this case, the output of `slapd -V`); also, run the command with a "debug" or "verbose" switch (if it has one) and paste the output here (in this case, the output of `sudo slapadd -v < ldapdata.txt`. – xiaq Jul 28 '12 at 11:11

Also, most of the time you will want to use `ldapadd` instead of `slapadd`. `ldapadd` talks the standard LDAP protocol and operates on **any** LDAP server, while `slapadd` uses an OpenLDAP-specific IPC protocol to communicate with OpenLDAP only. Generally `slapadd` is only used for debugging purpose since it exposes more OpenLDAP internals. – xiaq Jul 28 '12 at 11:11

Judging from the error message, it seems the problem is during some internal initialization process, having not much to do with slapadd (ie. I guess you will get the same error with just slaptest). And according to here, you might have to install a newer version of OpenLDAP.

I gave up using the original ldap from osx and installed a new one from macports. Also I managed to make it work. – aphex Aug 02 '12 at 08:05
