48 is LDAP_INAPPROPRIATE_AUTH. I see more information for example here:

Do the migrated users have the userPassword attribute? You can check on the
user with:

# ldapsearch -D "cn=Directory Manager" -x -w Secret123 -b
"uid=admin,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=f21" uid userPassword
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <uid=admin,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=f21> with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: uid userPassword
#

# admin, users, accounts, f21
dn: uid=admin,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=f21
uid: admin
userPassword:: e1NTSEF9K2tZ...Ib3c9PQ==

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1
