Setting Self-Service Contact Information fails

UCS - Univention Corporate Server

First I looked where the message came from

  • the message “Undefined attribute type” is reported by the underlying OpenLDAP library: error.c#L60.
  • and the meaning of the placeholder is, that it is reported, if an attribute is unknown: LDAP_UNDEFINED_TYPE

It seems that when modifying the attribute “univentionPasswordSelfServiceEmail” and its content, the Schema definition is unknown to OpenLDAP. Please double check that

  • the Schema file is present on all servers /var/lib/univention-ldap/local-schema/self-service-passwordreset.schema, otherwise reinstall the self-service app
  • “self-service-passwordreset.schema” is included in /etc/ldap/slapd.conf, otherwise type ucr commit /etc/ldap/slapd.conf and restart the ldap service

There is also a similar topic at the forum, see
