[jira] [Commented] (DIRAPI-175) LdifReader should handle empty entries

["Emmanuel Lecharny (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-175?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13907194#comment-13907194 ] 

Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRAPI-175:
------------------------------------------

It's not a bug in the LDIF parser : your LDIF file is not correct, accordingly to the RFC.

ldif-file                = ldif-content / ldif-changes
ldif-content             = version-spec 1*(1*SEP ldif-attrval-record)
ldif-changes             = version-spec 1*(1*SEP ldif-change-record)
ldif-attrval-record      = dn-spec SEP 1*attrval-spec
ldif-change-record       = dn-spec SEP *control changerecord
attrval-spec             = AttributeDescription value-spec SEP
changerecord             = "changetype:" FILL
                           (change-add / change-delete /
                            change-modify / change-moddn)

So either it's a change-record, or a attrval-record, but you need to add a attrval-spec or a "changetype" at the begin of the line after the DN.

Check your LDIF.

Note that it makes sense to have at least the ObjectClass Attribute : how possibly your LDAP server can validate a DN which RDN is not part of the entry ? This is not a legal entry.

>
> A simple LDIF file containing 3 entries is rejected by LDIFParser:
> dn: uid=uniqueId, dc=domain
> dn: uid=uniqueId2, dc=domain
> dn: uid=uniqueId3, dc=domain
> I don't see any issue in this LDIF. Parser should return 3 entries with no attribute.
> With M11, the error is the following:
> ERROR - ERR_12058_UNKNOWN_ENTRY_TYPE Unknown entry type
> ERROR - ERR_12058_UNKNOWN_ENTRY_TYPE Unknown entry type
> ERROR - ERR_12069 Cannot parse the ldif buffer : ERR_12059_UNKNOWN_ENTRY Unknown entry
> ERROR - ERR_12069 Cannot parse the ldif buffer : ERR_12059_UNKNOWN_ENTRY Unknown entry
> If I add an attribute to each entry, I get no more error.
