      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      While testing "Migration from RHDS12 to RHDS13" I noticed one step is missing in the doc. 

      Missing step - To change ownership of /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-dirsrv:dirsrv /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<ds_13_instance_name>/ldif/migration.ldif

      1. chown dirsrv:dirsrv /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<ds_13_instance_name>/ldif/migration.ldif

        In 6.3. Migrating Directory Server 12 to version 13 using the export and import method

       

      Perform the following steps on the new Directory Server 13 host:

      iii. Place the /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<ds_12_instance_name>/migration.ldif file that you copied from the Directory Server 12 host in the /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<ds_13_instance_name>/ldif/ directory.

       

      Here add one more line to change ownership of /var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<ds_13_instance_name>/ldif/ directory to dirsrv:dirsrv

       

      What is the impact of this issue to you?

      Import operation failed with below error :

      Could not open LDIF file "/var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-<ds_13_instance_name>/ldif/migration.ldif", errno 13 (Permission denied)
      thread import producer aborted ==> Aborting import.

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      DOC - https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_directory_server/13/html/installing_red_hat_directory_server/migrating-ds-12-to-ds-13#migrating-ds-12-to-version-13-using-the-export-and-import-method

       

      How reproducible is this bug?: Easy

      Expected results

      The import task has finished successfully

      Actual results

      thread import producer aborted ==> Aborting import.
