Tom, is it still the case with the latest 2.0 milestone versions?

>                 Key: DIRSTUDIO-753
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-753
>             Project: Directory Studio
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: studio-connection, studio-ldapbrowser
>    Affects Versions: 1.5.3
>         Environment: Linux (RHEL 6 x86_64)
>            Reporter: Tom Poage
>            Priority: Minor
>
> RFC 4512 (sec 5.1.2) suggests that an empty value in the rootDSE operational attribute namingContexts is normal, perhaps encouraged in some deployments.
> Some LDAP servers, such as recent versions of Sun/Oracle DSEE, can display namingContexts containing an empty value.
> I can't tell offhand if this is a bug with Directory Studio or JNDI. A sampling of other JNDI applications/code tested do not throw an exception on encountering the empty value.
> E.g.
> {code}
> ldapsearch -x -LLL -H ldap://myhost.example.org -b '' -s base 'objectClass=*' namingContexts
> {code}
> {noformat)
> dn:
> namingContexts: dc=example,dc=org
> namingContexts:
> namingContexts: dc=people,dc=example,dc=org
> {noformat}
> If an Apache Directory Studio Connection is set to the default of "Get base DNs from Root DSE", an exception is thrown on the empty value.
> {noformat}
> Error while opening connection
>  - [LDAP: error code 32 - No Such Object]
>   javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: [LDAP: error code 32 - No Such Object]; remaining name ''

> A partial workaround is relatively easy: specify a Base DN in the Connection Browser Options
> Does it make sense for Directory Studio to ignore the empty value -- or at least not throw the exception -- since RootDSE is already a "standard" location?
