Issue ID: 9556 Summary: slapd-config should return invalidAttributeSyntax if parsing schema description fails Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.4 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: michael@stroeder.com Target Milestone: ---
I'm currently testing error handling and interacting with LDAP clients (e.g. my web2ldap).
Sending an invalid attribute type description results in an error (as expected) returned by slapd-config:
RESULT tag=103 err=80 qtime=0.000032 etime=0.001271 text=olcAttributeTypes: Unexpected token before SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
But result code other(80) seems not very useful. It's too unspecific to decide on specific error handling.
It would be much more useful if slapd-config returns invalidAttributeSyntax(21) in this case.
