https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199923 Bug Description: When add or import an entry which dn contains '\\', subtree search does not return the entry even though the entry satisfies the search criteria. ------- Additional Comments From nhosoi@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-10-30 16:47 EST ------- Created an attachment (id=139778) --> (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=139778&action=view) sample ldif step to reproduce: 1) stop slapd 2) import the sample ldif file 3) run subtree search with the filter "(ou=*)" and the attribute list "dn" expected result: search result dn: ou=Accounting, dc=example,dc=com actual result: search result dn: ou=Accounting, dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/, dc=example,dc=com dn: uid=TVradmin0, ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/, dc=entry,dc=com ------- Additional Comments From nhosoi@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-10-30 19:24 EST ------- Created an attachment (id=139786) --> (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=139786&action=view) cvs diffs (ldapserver) Files: ldap/servers/slapd/back-ldbm/backentry.c ldap/servers/slapd/back-ldbm/import-threads.c \ ldap/servers/slapd/back-ldbm/ldbm_add.c \ ldap/servers/slapd/back-ldbm/proto-back-ldbm.h Bug description: The directory server internally normalizes the dn and uses the normalized dn tocompare. In some cases, the server was normalizing the dn more than once. Normally, the normalized string is identical to the renormalized dn. { i.e.,
normalized_dn == normalize(normalize_dn) } The problem is, if the dn contains '\\' (not just the escape character, but it contains some real backslash characters: dn: ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/, dc=example,dc=com), the string istransformed to the one which is not considered to be the same as the original. (the normalization is done in the function substr_dn_normalize in slapd/dn.c;
if you are interested in, the function has a detailed comment). Changes: Avoid re-normalizing an already normalized dn. It should be better from the performance point of view, as well. Note: When running ldapsearch having such attribute values containing '"' in it, we should use single quote to quote the string. Otherwise, the command line interface consumes the backslash before '"' and mismatched string is passed to the server and returns "no such object". $ dapsearch -p <port> -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <pw> -b 'ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/, dc=example,dc=com' '(ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/)' version: 1 dn: ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/, dc=example,dc=com objectClass: organizationalUnit objectClass: top ou: \#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/ ou: #,+"\>:=<<>;/ $ ldapsearch -p <port> -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <pw> -b "ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/, dc=example,dc=com" "(ou=\#\,\+\"\\\>:\=\<\<\>\;/)" ldap_search: No such object
