When requesting paged results control on glued databases, if a database (either superior or subordinate) returns one page that ends with the last corresponding entry in that database, the resulting cookie is empty. Thus, the
result
returned to the client corresponds to the final result of a paged response. However, other databases may have returned data. A fix is being designed. p.
Your fix for this problem works well in my tests.
Under the same subject, another problem arises:
Consider this :
- back null
---- back ldap 1 returning 3 results to a search ---- back ldap 2 returning 3 results to a search
And you search "back null" with a page size of 2:
- The first response contains 2 results from "back ldap 1" and a correct
cookie.
- The second response contains 1 result from "back ldap 1" and 1 result
from "back ldap 2", and another correct cookie.
- The third request, however, goes back to "back ldap 1", and returns
the same results as the first response.
- And so on... forever.
As I mentioned, it seems that to solve this problem we would have to tie a paged results cookie to a particular backend under glue...
Should work now. The issue was related to the fact that unless the subordinate backends are local, the response to pgaed results has not
been
parsed into the connection structure...
Yes, much better now.
Just one weird case left. Considering the same setup as described above (back null with 2 back ldap glued underneath): a search with pagedResults and a page size of 3 (the exact number of results returned by each back ldap), we get:
- a first page with the 3 results from back ldap 1
- a second page with 3 results from back ldap 2 (so far, so good)
- but then this last result also has a pagedResults cookie, and the search
can go on and on, returning the same 2nd page.
Presumably this is related to the patch allowing pagedResults to cross two databases. If the first returns an empty cookie (no more results), a new cookie is added. However, this should not be done if the last database returns no more results.
It seems it just needs a simple exception for the last database. The attached patch works for me.
