Re: (ITS#6655) Error on delete for jpegPhoto attribute - openldap-bugs

21 Sep 2010


      This is not a bug, but a legitimate error.  The definition of the
attribute jpegPhoto contains no matching rule, so deleting a specific
value is not possible.  This ITS will be closed.  p.

Hi,
It seems that the delete of a jpegPhoto attribute (specifing its value)
produce
the error 18 (Inappropriate matching).
With other attribute ("title", for exemple), this error doesn't appear ...
source (C++):
m_errNo = ldap_modify_ext_s ( m_desc,
(*m_entryIn)->getIdentifier().c_str(),
tmpMods, NULL, NULL );
Trace Debug (code::blocks 8.02):
**tmpMods
    mod_op=129
    mod_type = 0xcc9950 "jpegPhoto"
    mod_vals
        modv_strvals = 0xc3dad0
        modv_bvals = 0xc3dad0
*tmpMods->mod_vals->modv_bvals[0]
    bv_len = 816
    bv_val = 0xec9480 "iVBORwOKGgoAAAANSUh...  // (*)
tmpMods->mod_vals->modv_bvals[1] = (berval *) 0x0,,
this->m_errNo = 18
(*): here, the value seems correct: (std::string(..."a search jpegPhoto
attribute result in
Base"...getAttribute()->getStrValue()))->compare(bv_val)==0...
but:
**tmpMods
    mod_op=129
    mod_type = 0xd76130 "title"
    mod_vals
        modv_strvals = 0xcc7e90
        modv_bvals = 0xcc7e90
*tmpMods->mod_vals->modv_bvals[0]
    bv_len = 4
    bv_val = 0xdd3b40 "test"
tmpMods->mod_vals->modv_bvals[1] = (berval *) 0x0,,
this->m_errNo = 0
Please, tell me if you need some more samples of code or trace debug ...
Regards.
