#558 renaming non-existent user fails
Closed: Fixed None Opened 13 years ago by rcritten.

This is what happens if you try to rename an non-existent user:

$ ldapmodify -x -D 'cn=directory manager' -W
Enter LDAP Password: 
dn: uid=tuser1,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com
changetype: modrdn
newrdn: uid=tuser
deleteoldrdn: 1

modifying rdn of entry "uid=tuser1,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com"
ldap_rename: Operations error (1)
        additional info: Another entry with the same attribute value already exists (attribute: "ipaUniqueID")

I discovered this using the ipa command:

ipa user-mod --setattr=uid=tuser tuser1

It should return a no such entry error


This is causing a slew of our in-tree tests to fail making it difficult to certify that things are operating as they should.

Rob, I tracked this error down to preop_modify() in
ldap/servers/plugins/uiduniq/uid.c

Should we open a dirsrv bug ?

This should be a dirsrv bug, but please reproduce it with plugin level error logging on. The attribute uniqueness plug-in should provide a little more information about what is happening.

This is what I get in error log with level 65536:

This is a Directory Server bug but it is not critical for the beta.
Proposing for deferral.

Was the bug ever opened? Was it addressed?
Please put a BZ reference here.

Please close if the DS bug is addressed.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=674430

Bug is closed upstream, we need to determine what build it is in and re-test. We will need to update the min 389-ds value in our spec file.

Bug is closed upstream, we need to determine what build it is in and re-test. We will need to update the min 389-ds value in our spec file.

According to git log, the fix (http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=389/ds.git;a=commit;h=da533838fd9e804ff5f8a10f97b8b813bbd38d43) went into what was later tagged and released as 389-ds-base-1.2.8.a2

That version is in both F14 and F15 now and we actually require it, too. So I think we can just close this ticket.

Also my testing went fine:

$ cat rename.ldif 
dn: uid=tuser1,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=idm,dc=lab,dc=bos,dc=redhat,dc=com
changetype: modrdn
newrdn: uid=tuser
deleteoldrdn: 1
$ ldapmodify -x -D 'cn=directory manager' -w password < rename.ldif
modifying rdn of entry "uid=tuser1,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=idm,dc=lab,dc=bos,dc=redhat,dc=com"
ldap_rename: No such object (32)
    additional info: Error checking for attribute uniqueness.
