Adding entries with RDNs enclosed in quotes may lead to entries with illegal DNs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DIRSERVER-696
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-696
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0-RC4
Environment: * ApacheDS 1.0 RC4 SNAPSHOT
* Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-b03)
* Windows XP Professional SP2
Reporter: Stefan Zoerner
Using ApacheDS 1.0 RC4 SNAPSHOT with server.xml unchanged.
If I try to add something like this
dn: ou="Scissors 8<",dc=example,dc=com
ou: "Scissors 8<"
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: top
an entry is created like that (quotes missing)
dn: ou=Scissors 8<,dc=example,dc=com
ou: Scissors 8<
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: top
This causes a lot of trouble in some tools I use (LDAP Administrator, for
instance). I checked the behaviour of IBM Tivoli Directory Server 6.0 and Sun
Java System Directory Server 5.2. They behave different, but both create
entries with valid DNs:
Sun:
dn: ou="Scissors 8<",dc=example,dc=com
ou: "Scissors 8<"
ou: Scissors 8<
objectClass: organizationalUnit
objectClass: top
IBM:
dn: ou=Scissors 8\<,dc=example,dc=com
ou: "Scissors 8<"
ou: Scissors 8<
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: top
I add an LDIF file with this entry and comparable entries, which cause the same
error.
