i have a problem with ldap configuration :

$ ldapadd -x -D 'cn=Manager,dc=ircoms,dc=com' -f file.ldif -W 
Enter LDAP Password: 
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

i deleted the contains of /var/lib/ldap ,then execute

ldapadd -x -D 'cn=Manager,dc=ircoms,dc=com' -f file.ldif -W

Now I get this error: 

$ ldapadd -x -D 'cn=Manager,dc=ircoms,dc=com' -f file.ldif 
ldap_bind: Server is unwilling to perform (53) 
additional info: unauthenticated bind (DN with no password) disallowed

I work on fedora 15.

invalid credentials indicates that 1) the password you typed was incorrect or 2) the server is configured to return invalid credentials even when some other problem prevented authentication, for example, if the authorization identity does not exist in the directory database. In the 2d example, you attempted to authenticate with a bind request that contained a distinguished name but no password, which the directory server disallowed.
