Hi, the server does support the server-side sorting. However if the server considers that the sorting task is too expensive it sends you an error. When you sort on a certain attribute be sure * to have an index on it with the corresponding matching rule (http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/index-sort-order.html) and * be sure that the number of sorted entries does not exceeed nsslapd-idlistscanlimit (http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/Managing_Indexes.html), otherwise the search will be considered unindexed and as a consequence too expensive Other than that the sorting works perfectly... 2010/1/29 Derek Alexander <d.alexander at lse.ac.uk>: > Hi, > > Was trying to do a search against the directory, with results sorted on the createTimestamp > attribute using JNDI. > > Got this back: > > javax.naming.OperationNotSupportedException: [LDAP: error code 12 - Sort Response Control]; > remaining name '...' > > Any idea of the reason for this? > > I was under the impression that server-side sorting was supported. > > Cheers, > Derek > > > Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://www.lse.ac.uk/collections/planningAndCorporatePolicy/legalandComplianceTeam/legal/disclaimer.htm > -- > 389 users mailing list > 389-users at lists.fedoraproject.org > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users >
