[Freeipa-users] EXTERNAL: Re: Can't delete group because it states it's not found

[Joseph, Matthew (EXP)]

Hey Rob,

So I did the following command;

Ldapdelete -D "cn=Directory Manager" -h server_name -p 389 "cn=group_name,cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=domain,dc=ca" and it comes back with the following;
Ldap_delete: No such object

I also tried replacing the group_name with the nsuniqueid and still the same results.

Matt

Run ipa group-show --all --raw <groupname> and look at the dn value. It
may be a replication conflict entry. You'd need to delete that manually
using something like ldapdelete.
