LDAP_ERROR(3)							 LDAP_ERROR(3)

NAME
       ldap_perror, ld_errno, ldap_result2error, ldap_errlist, ldap_err2string
       - LDAP protocol error handling routines

LIBRARY
       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ldap.h>

       char *ldap_err2string( int err );

       void ldap_perror( LDAP *ld, const char *s )

       int ldap_result2error( LDAP *ld, LDAPMessage *res, int freeit )

DESCRIPTION
       These routines  provide	interpretation	of  the	 various  error	 codes
       returned	 by  the LDAP protocol and LDAP library routines or associated
       with an LDAP session.  The error code associated with an	 LDAP  session
       is  accessible using ldap_get_option(3) and ldap_set_option(3) with the
       LDAP_OPT_ERROR_NUMBER option.

       The ldap_result2error() routine takes res,  a  result  as  produced  by
       ldap_result(3) or ldap_search_s(3), and returns the corresponding error
       code.  Possible error codes are listed below.  If the freeit  parameter
       is  non	zero  it indicates that the res parameter should be freed by a
       call to ldap_msgfree(3) after the error code has been  extracted.   The
       ld_errno field in ld is set and returned.

       The  returned  value  can  be passed to ldap_err2string() to get a text
       description of the message.  The string returned from ldap_err2string()
       is a pointer to a static area that should not be modified.

       The  ldap_perror()  routine can be called to print an indication of the
       error on standard error, similar to the way perror(3) works.

			   tion.

       LDAP_STRONG_AUTH_REQUIRED

       LDAP_ALIAS_PROBLEM  An alias in The Directory points to	a  nonexistent
			   entry.

       LDAP_INVALID_DN_SYNTAX
			   A syntactically invalid DN was specified.

       LDAP_IS_LEAF	   The object specified is a leaf.

			   An object class violation occurred (e.g., a	"must"
			   attribute was missing from the entry).

       LDAP_NOT_ALLOWED_ON_NONLEAF
