Issue ID: 9926 Summary: Bad file links in openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5.tar.gz Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.13 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: libraries Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: ksmith@blackducksoftware.com Target Milestone: ---
The current archive openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5.tar.gz (downloaded 10/4/22) contains files that were included as invalid links. This causes errors when trying to unzip via 7zip or trying to scan with various software tools. The tar.gz is successfully expanded using "tar -xvzf" but the problem files do not exist.
Error output in 7zip is: Can not create symbolic link: A required priviledge in not held by the client.: openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5\servers\lloadd\design.md openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5\servers\lloadd\nt_svc.c openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5\tests\data\homedir\skel\directory\broken link openldap-OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5\tests\data\homedir\skel\svmlink

You need to use a filesystem that supports symlinks.

--- Comment #3 from ksmith@blackducksoftware.com --- Thanks for the responses and assigning the issue.
The links exist in all archives. I understand they work on Linux, etc. But, lots of users still use Windows servers with Jenkins, etc. to build and test. When users have download a zip, it is especially likely they are on Windows and having the links in the zip will cause an issue.
