Description

Hi Team,

I would like to parse a simple LDIF file in which there's an empty-value attribute like below:

dn: cn=Steven Nguyen,ou=SAP,dc=sap,dc=local
changetype: modify
replace: objectClass
objectClass: top
objectClass: user
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
-
replace: sn
sn: Nguyen Linh
-
replace: url
-

I expect the LdifEntry after parsing would have the same but the result is a bit different:

dn: cn=Steven Nguyen,ou=SAP,dc=sap,dc=local
changetype: modify
replace: objectClass
objectClass: top
objectClass: user
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
-
replace: sn
sn: Nguyen Linh
-
replace: url
url:
-

When I send the above LdifEntry to my AD host, it rejects with the error: 00000057: LdapErr: DSID-0C090B8A, comment: Error in attribute conversion operation, data 0, v1db1.
With my original LDIF file, I could successfully import to AD host (the empty-value attribute will be removed from the entry as expected).

Could you please have a look at this?

Best Regards,

Steven Nguyen
