[jira] [Created] (DIRSERVER-2344) Unable to change password for uid=admin, ou=system after new install of Directory Studio

David E. Filip created DIRSERVER-2344:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Unable to change password for uid=admin, ou=system after new install of Directory Studio
                 Key: DIRSERVER-2344
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2344
             Project: Directory ApacheDS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M16
         Environment: Directory Studio running on a Mac (10.13.6) with OpenJDK 11
            Reporter: David E. Filip


From Directory Studio, trying to change the initial password of the uid=admin, ou=system user fails using the Password Editor.  The error is:

 
code 16 - noSuchAttribute] NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE: failed for MessageType : MODIFY_REQUEST
Message ID : 26
    Modify Request
        Object : 'uid=admin,ou=system'

            Modification[1]
                Operation :  add
                Modification : userPassword: 0x62 0x72 0x61 0x7A 0x69 0x6C 0x38 0x35

EQUALITY octetStringMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40
USAGE userApplications )
However, I am able to successfully change the password using Extended Operations => Password Modify ...

Also, after I have updated the password once with Password Modify, the Password Editor then works as expected.

I have experienced this trying to change the original 'secret' password both on an ApacheDS server created within Studio (Version: 2.0.0.v20210213-M16), and using Studio connected to a remote ApacheDS server with the latest build (AM26-2021-04-05).
