#### 2.1.3 Troubleshooting

If `ldapsearch` exits with an error, you’ll see a message like this in the `*Messages*` buffer (all on one line):

    ldap-search-internal: Failed ldapsearch invocation:
       ldapsearch "-Hldaps://ldap.gnu.org" "-bou=people,dc=gnu,dc=org"
       "-Dgnu\emacsuser" "-W" "-LL" "-tt" "(&(mail=name*))"
       "givenname" "sn" "mail"

The `ldapsearch` command is formatted such that it can be copied and pasted into a terminal. Set the `ldapsearch` debug level to 5 by appending `-d 5` to the command line.
