Yet another backport to suggest
by Benoit Donnette 26 Jul '07

26 Jul '07

Dear Howard, Let me suggest yet another backport on the 2.3 branch (specifically on 2.3.37) from the Head, this time related to the entryDN attributes indexing. Once again you are the original author of the commit that was backported, it seems my contributions relate to backport your most awaited features - am I a serial backporter ? :-) I hope it will be interesting enough a feature to be included. Yours sincerely, Benoît Donnette - Expert TM2L/OSSA - www.08000linux.com LINAGORA - 27 rue de Berri - 75008 PARIS LINAGORA recrute : http://www.linagora.com/societe/nous_rejoindre/

ITS#5040, operational attribute updates
by Howard Chu 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

I don't see anything in X.501/X.511 etc to imply there's any difference - should modifyTimeStamp be left untouched when an update only changes an entry's operational attributes, or should all modifications, regardless of how they were initiated or what they touch, update the modifyTimeStamp? Possible alternatives: 1) only update modifyTimeStamp in response to actual Modify (and MoDDN) requests from a client. (thus, not for any internally generated updates.) 2) only update modifyTimeStamp if user attributes are changed. 3) always update modifyTimeStamp -- -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/

Getting more meaningful error out of back-config
by Ralf Haferkamp 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi, I'd like to improve the error messages that back-config returns via LDAP to the client. Currently in many case you only get back a very generic error messages. E.g. when trying to add a second monitor database you just get: Error code LDAP_OTHER with the diagnostic message set to "<olcDatabase> failed init". To find out what really went wrong you need to dig up the logfiles. One way to get more meaningful error messages to the client would be by adding an additional const char** text parameter to the _db_init functions (and probably some other of the BI_db_func() functions as well), similiar to what is done in many other case when error messages need to be passed to the caller. Does somebody have better ideas how to achieve this? -- Ralf
