Trying to get LDAP "Hello World" to work
I had incredible luck getting the SQL Processor. I think I must have spent
all my karma in one shot. I'm trying to get an LDAP example going now and
I'm getting a NullPointerException. Unfortunately, I know very little about
LDAP (I'm trying to learn now) so I'm a bit lost in the lingo. The
stacktrace I'm getting follows:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.apache.cocoon.processor.ldap.LdapProcessor.process(LdapProcessor.java:11
6)
at org.apache.cocoon.Engine.handle(Engine.java:283)
at org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon.service(Cocoon.java:145)
at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:309)
at
org.apache.jserv.JServConnection.processRequest(JServConnection.java:314)
at org.apache.jserv.JServConnection.run(JServConnection.java:188)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:479)
The .xml file is very very simple (based on the example in the
documentation)...
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?cocoon-process type="ldap"?>
<?cocoon-process type="xslt"?>
<?cocoon-format type="text/xml"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="ldapExample.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<page title="LDAP Processor Example">
<ldap-defs>
<ldap-server name="usrymx04">
<initializer>com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory</initializer>
<ldap-serverurl>ldap://usrymx04.merck.com</ldap-serverurl>
</ldap-server>
</ldap-defs>
<ldap-query server="usrymx04">
sn=*madhukar*
</ldap-query>
</page>
And just to save some time, the line where the NullPointerException is
coming from is the last line (query_props.put(...)) in the following code
snippet.
NamedNodeMap query_attributes = query_element.getAttributes();
for (int j=0; j<query_attributes.getLength(); j++) {
Node query_attribute = query_attributes.item(j);
query_props.put(query_attribute.getNodeName(),query_attribute.getNodeValue()
);
}
Would anyone be able to tell off the bat what I'm doing wrong? Thanks a
billion!

Hope you have JNDI.jar installed.

In order to get ldap sample to properly, make sure jndi.jar and providerutil.jar
files are visible in wrapper.classpath. If you don't have these jar files
download them from javasoft web site.

Your karma might be lacking. Just offer a few bytes from /dev/zero
to /dev/null and jndi.jar. You might also want to chant for its
friend in arms 'providerutil.jar'.

LdapProcessor.java:116)
Hmm, that line rings a bell. Now you might want to also be nice and do
something like
searchbase="ou=mydept,o=someorg"
or something like that. Or perhaps with the L=.
