Error with disclaimer when 'ldap url' contains more than one LDAP server

---

Problem:

Unable to configure domain disclaimer if more than one ldap server entries exist in the ldap_url.

Altermime throwing below error while generating disclaimer files :

./libexec/zmaltermimeconfig -e DOMAIN.COM

Error connecting to LDAP server: ldap://ldap1.DOMAIN.COM:389 ldap://ldap2.DOMAIN.COM:389 at ./libexec/zmaltermimeconfig line 63,  line 751.

Solution:

See the following steps to fix this problem, and using these steps there is no need to restart any service.

1). Check LDAP server entries in localconfig:-

      zmlocalconfig ldap_url    

Output:-

      ldap_url = ldap://ldap1.DOMAIN.COM:389 ldap://ldap2.DOMAIN.COM:389   

2). Remove second LDAP server entry from ldap_url. There is no need to restart any service for this change.

      zmlocalconfig -e ldap_url="ldap://ldap1.DOMAIN.COM:389"   

3). Now generate domain disclaimer files for altermime:-

      ./libexec/zmaltermimeconfig -e DOMAIN.COM  

4). After generating domain disclaimer files revert ldap_url entries:-

      zmlocalconfig -e ldap_url="ldap://ldap1.DOMAIN.COM:389 ldap://ldap2.DOMAIN.COM:389"
