[jira] Updated: (DIRSERVER-803) Creating an alias from a child
entry to the ancestor causes an error (return code 36)
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-803?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Emmanuel Lecharny updated DIRSERVER-803:
----------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.5.0
There is no simple way to have this problem fixed for 1.0.1. Even for 1.5.0, it will be clearly a challenge : we have chosen a strategy to deal with aliases which forbid direct cycles. Do we have to change this ?

> Key: DIRSERVER-803
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-803
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.0
> Environment: * ApacheDS 1.0.0
> * Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-b03)
> * Windows XP Professional SP2
> Reporter: Stefan Zoerner
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.5.0

> Attachments: AddAliasFromDescendantTest.java

>
> It fails to import the following two entries into ApacheDS 1.0 (default server.xml).
> The second entry is an alias to the first one, and is directly located below the first entry:
> dn: ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com
> ou: Singers
> objectclass: top
> objectclass: organizationalUnit
> dn: ou=Songwriters,ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com
> ou: Songwriters
> objectclass: top
> objectclass: organizationalUnit
> objectclass: alias
> aliasedobjectname: ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com
> Here is the result I got from an ldapmodify attempt:
> $ ldapmodify -h localhost -p 10389 -D "uid=admin,ou=system" -w ****** -q -c -a -f aliasSingers.ldif
> ldap_add: Unknown error
> ldap_add: additional info: failed to add entry ou=Songwriters,ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com: [36] aliasDereferencingProblem - attempt to create alias with cycle to relative ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com not allowed from descendent alias 2.5.4.11=songwriters,2.5.4.11=singers,0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.25=example,0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.25=com
> It seems that ApacheDS does not allow to create an alias from a descendant. I tried the same with Tivoli Directory Server 6.0 and Sun Java System Directory Server 5.2, both allowed this constellation.
> Find attached a JNDI JUnit test which is able to cause the error by adding two entries programmatically.
