Message XCY05 for NATIVE authentication is (too?) complex
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-5657
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5657
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Services
Affects Versions: 10.9.0.0
Reporter: Kristian Waagan
Priority: Minor
The error message XCY05 is rather complex:
Invalid change of the derby.authentication.provider property. Once set to
NATIVE authentication, this property cannot be changed. NATIVE::LOCAL is the
only NATIVE value accepted by derby.authentication.provider. This property
cannot be set to NATIVE::LOCAL unless credentials for the database owner have
been stored in the database using the syscs_util.syscs_create_user procedure.
I'd be in favor of simplifying this error message if possible, especially
raising a more specific message for the error condition when the DBO hasn't
been added as a user.
Further, it was not clear to me that the information about
derby.authentication.provider applies when setting it as a database property
only.
Is this message trying to describe three problem scenarios?
a) Turning off NATIVE authentication is forbidden.
b) Specifying an invalid value for derby.authentication.provider when set as a
database property.
c) Missing credentials for the DBO.
