DefaultSchemaLdifExtractor relies on "java.class.path" environment variable
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DIRSERVER-1504
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1504
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.5.7
Environment: Tomcat 6.0.26, Sun JDK 1.6.0_16, Windows Vista
Reporter: Marian Schedenig
Priority: Critical
When initialising ApacheDS, DefaultSchemaLdifExtractor is invoked by to read
default LDIF files. To find these files, regular expressions are applied to all
JARs found in the class path. The class path is found by reading the
environment variable "java.class.path".
This is done in ResourceMap#getResources():
String classPath = System.getProperty( "java.class.path", "." );
String[] classPathElements = classPath.split( File.pathSeparator );
There is no guarantee that "java.class.path" contains all the JARs available to
the current class loader. For example, in Tomcat 6, the variable only contains
one single entry, Tomcat's own bootstrap.jar. Result:
DefaultSchemaLdifExtractor fails to find and extract any LDIF files, and
JarLdifSchemaLoader throws an exception when an expected schema file is not
available.
