Assignee: Alex Karasulu
> NamingException messages are thrown away by MessageHandlers
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSERVER-619
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-619
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ldap
> Affects Versions: 1.0-RC3
> Environment: N/A
> Reporter: Norbert Reilly
> Assigned To: Alex Karasulu
> Attachments: handler_exception_msgs_at_397393.patch

>
> The LDAP MessageHandlers (e.g.
> org.apache.directory.server.ldap.support.AddHandler) throw away the messages
> attached to caught NamingExceptions before rethrowing their own newly created
> exceptions:
> catch ( NamingException e )
> {
> String msg = "failed to add entry " + req.getEntry();
> if ( log.isDebugEnabled() )
> {
> msg += ":\n" + ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace( e );
> }
> where I would like to see
> catch ( NamingException e )
> {
> String msg = "failed to add entry " + req.getEntry() + ": " +
> e.getMessage();
> instead. Without this fix all meaningful details about the problem are thrown
> away and can not be displayed in the LDAP client meaning that server log
> files have to be inspected immediately.
> In addition, this seems like a simple oversight as even in the debugging case
> only the server stacktrace is merged into the exception message and hence
> sent to the client where the original NamingException message is much more
> valuable for debugging then the stacktrace alone.
