Why has the syntax changed? A number of the syntaxes changed to match the current RFCs. The destinationIndicator task is specified as a Printable String in RFC 4519. > How can I solve this issue?

If you can not follow the syntax rules of the attributes, you may need to disable syntax checking. This is not desirable, but you may not have any other choice if you can't change your values to follow the rules. If you wish to turn syntax checking off, set "nsslapd-syntaxcheck: off" in "cn=config". > Something similar happens with the attribute nsViewFilter, altough > this attribute has not changed its syntax across these two versions. > Ths script reports that this filter violates the syntax: > > (ou=*ou=AABBB,ou=Recursos,o=XXXX,dc=YYY,dc=ZZ) > > But I think this filter is valid. Why is the tool reporting that error? Older versions of 389 (or Fedora DS) did not have syntax checking at all. The nsViewFilter attribute uses the IA5 String syntax, which should allow all of these characters. Some more details on this error and the steps you took to hit it would be useful. > Also, if I try to import an exported database that contains those > values, the server fails because of the syntax errors. Yes, syntax checking is run during import. If you had old values that are now illegal, you will get these errors if syntax checking is enabled. > Regards and thanks in advance. > -- > 389 users mailing list > 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
