Hi
I am trying to add the value to the attribute "protocol information" which
is required in our schema but I am getting the error
Invalid syntax :protocol information: no validator for syntax
1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.42
from the earlier mailing list I have found The problem seems to be lack
of validations in the schema_init.c source code for attribure 'Protocol
Information'
{"( 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.42 DESC 'Protocol Information' )",
0, NULL, NULL, NULL},
isn't it that including values like dnPretty ,UTF8StringValidate..etc in
the code instead of NULL values may resolve the problem
this attribute protocolInformation is defined in core.schema
I personally feel that for those attributes where validation are NULL in
schema_init.c , the openLDAP should not force the validation and give this
error message as all these
attributes in which validation are not defined becomes unusable .
So any idea how to resolve this ? there is any way to modify any of the
config file in openldap to disable this validation for protocol information
?
do I have to raise bug request for the same and is this going to be fixed in
next openLDAP release.
Any help and suggestions in this direction is highly appreciated. as I am
porting the schema from Sun directory server and & I have to use this
protocol informatoin
attribute so as our LDAP application which is utilized by thousands of
people can be migrated to OpenLDAP.
I am not getting these kind of error in Tivoli/Sun and Microsoft Active
directory for editing of this attribute .
thanks and regards
Prashant
