Re: WARN: Attribute does not have normalizer

Thanks for the prompt reply.

 

1.  IMHO, a level of INFO would be better for the 'normalizer' entries - would you agree?  My users are equally sensitive to both ERROR and WARN log entries.

 

2.  I think the BTreePartition WARNs could be avoided if the code that creates the system partition explicitly sets the cache size on the index attributes.

     I know this as I create a custom partition and it was generating WARN messages!  I see from the Spring configuration file that it sets the index

     attributes.  Is there a way to ensure the system partition sets the index attributes when I'm not using Spring?

 

Thanks

Hi !

So far, you haven't done anything wrong. The warnings are just here to warn about the fact that, as we don't have declared any normalizer for sme attributes, ADS will just use a kind of Identity normalizer (ie, a normalizer that don't normalize :). It's always possible to declare some normalizer into the schema files, but I'm not sure this is necessary to normalize a photo (!?), for instance.

FYI, normalizer are used to transform an attribute value in a way that allow comparizons between values. For instance, if an attribute is case insensitive, then the normalization will transform the value to a lower cased string, and every further comparizons will be done using lower cased comparizons.

I think that you just get more logs just because 1.0 is just a little bit more verbose.

I'm running DS embedded in jBoss.  I am experiencing a number of log4j warnings that I did not see in RC3.

 

The first batch or WARNs seem to relate to the Bootstrap schema loader and the second batch relate to the creation of the system partition.

 

What have I done wrong?
