Description

Resolution:
This error indicates that the target object cannot be found. This error is reported by the adapter if you perform add/ modify operation on a DN which does not exist and, is not a valid entry.

For example, if you have configured the adapter for adding user's( object class: inetOrgperson) and if you try to add/ modify a "person1" (which is of type "inetOrgperson") under the directory tree "ouMyorg1", which does not exist, then the adapter returns "No such object"

For example, if you had a intention of adding/ modifying a DN: "uid=person1,ou=Myorg001,dc=tibco,dc=com", but if you had specified "uid=person1,ou=Myorg1,dc=tibco,dc=com", then adapter would report an error, since  "ou=Myorg1" does not exist.
