--------------------------------------------------
Hi Lothar,
I did a few other tests on my colleague's Edirectory (a 8.8 SP6 version) and
still haven't been able to reproduce the issue (even with the inetOrgPerson
thing).
I had a look in the code and I can now explain why sometimes it would write
"NULL". That's because the received value is a "null" java object. But I still
don't understand why this object would be null since a value is showing in
Gawor LDAP Browser/Editor.
In the end, we get three different displays for attributes that all share the
same "Binary" syntax:
- the default display "Binary data (xxx bytes)", which is what is expected
since the attribute is binary.
- the "NULL" display which is due to the fact that the editor receives a "null"
java object, which is very weird.
- the "complete string" display, that displays the text contained in the
attribute, which shouldn't happen since the attribute is "Binary". That part is
really really weird.
Is there any way I could access the machine to debug the issue? (I imagine it's
complicated)
In any case, here are a few other steps you could do to help me find out what
is going on:
1°/ Could you verify in the schema browser that all the DirXML-xxxxxxx
attribute types are present and their syntax is "Binary" ?

2°/ Could you deactivate the "decorated values" ( It's in the "triangle icon"
at the top right of the editor, then uncheck "Show Decorated Values") and make
me a screenshot of then editor ?

3°/ Just in case, restore the Binary Attributes default preferences in the
corresponding preference page, "Apache Directory Studio" > "LDAP Browser" >
"Attributes" > "Binary Attributes" and see if it changes anything.

Thanks!

> Attribute values of binary syntax OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.5 are
> displayed inconsistently and partly wrong. Those attributes contain base 64
> encoded text and some of them are displayed as
> - editable (inline + dialog) text
> - "Binary Data (xxx Bytes)"
> - NULL
> See attached screenshot for an example of Apache DS vs. Gawor LDAP
> Browser/Editor displayoing the same object.
