if DATA_ADMIN_XXX_MAIL is missing provisioning might fail with (65) object class 'groupOfNames' requires attribute 'member'

[artlog]

due to a typo in slapd-cli.conf i had no DATA_ADMIN_XXX_MAIL corresponding to other DATA_ADMIN_XXX_YYY values.

When launching slapd-cli importdatatemplate

Admin is not created and full provisionning fails short since $MEMBER was not set.

A simple warning that some values (here mail) are missing could save some time here.

As seen in following (redacted) trace , there is no WARN or ERROR before ALERT.

might be moved in slapd-ci project.

Thanks for the report. Indeed, this issue should be moved in slapd-cli project. @artlog : could you move the issue and propose a minimal patch showing what's wrong and what improvement you would propose?
