Summary: LDAP directory contacts cannot be modified Product: kdepimlibs Version: 4.3 Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: kldap AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs@kde.org ReportedBy: rdrat...@yahoo.co.uk Version: (using KDE 4.3.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I tested kaddressbook (4.3) as front-end to manage contacts in a LDAP directory (addressbook). The server runs openldap 2.4. kaddressbook perfectly adds and deletes contacts. But it fails to modify attribute values of a contact within the LDAP directory. After changing e. g. the facsimile number of a contact, kaddressbook shows the updated number but the new number is not saved in the LDAP directory. OpenLDAP reports following failure: 'value #0 invalid per syntax'. kaddressbook uses kdepimlibs for communication with the LDAP server. kdepimlibs use the modify->replace operation of the LDAP protocol for modification of attribute values. In case of empty attributes (especially numbers) kdepimlibs does not comply to IETF RFC 2849. After the replace <attribute name> statement kdepimlibs adds an empty line before end of operation ('-'). When parsing such a request, the LDAP server reports the above mentioned error notification and denies the complete modification request. kaddressbook does not report this problem to the user. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
