Mallformed attribute value error

Hello...

Another ldap upset in my back yard....

When i try to bind a new entry in my ldap, i set the values for
"objectclass" attribute like this:

Code:

---

Vector objectClasses = new Vector(m_listOfObjectClasses.size());
objectClasses.addAll(m_listOfObjectClasses);
attributes.put("objectclass", objectClasses);

---

where listOfObjectClasses is:

Code:

---

<property name="listOfObjectClasses">
  <list>
        <value>top</value>
        <value>account</value>
        <value>eAccount</value>
        <value>eWebAccount</value>
    </list>
</property>

---

My existing entries all have the same "objectclass" attribute values:
top,account,eAccount,eWebAccount

Then the actual binding happens:

Code:

---

m_ldapTemplate.bind("uid=" + p_ldapUser.getUsername() + "," + getSearchBase(), null, attributes);

---

or

Code:

---

m_ldapTemplate.bind("uid=" + p_ldapUser.getUsername(), null, attributes);

---

The same error hapens:

Code:

Ideas (Although this may not have any connection with the ldapTemplate)?
Thank you in advance!

As you say, this is really not related to LdapTemplate.

You need to add each Attribute value individually:

Code:

---

Attribute attr = new BasicAttribute("objectclass");
for(Iterator iter = m_listOfObjectClasses.iterator(); iter.hasNext();){
  Object oneObjectclass = iter.next();
  attr.add(oneObjectclass);
}

Attributes attrs = new BasicAttributes();
attrs.put(attr);

---

You are right.
Again. :)
But, if i try your solution with

Code:

---

  String oneObjectclass = (String)iter.next();
  attr.add(oneObjectclass);

---

it does not work...

Oh well,it's probably a totally different issue...

Your help is much appreciated!
