---------------------------------------
Hi !
I would say : likely false positive. Now, as we build the Windows installer
using a third party library (NSIS), we can't really disregard your findings.
I think we should check with various anti-virus that this third party is not
contaminated.
Now, you have options : we produce binaries for convenience, and you still have
the option to build the project on your own, and have it running on your
machine. It's pretty trivial and as simple as :
{noformat}
$ git clone http://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/directory-server.git
$ cd directory-server
$ mvn clean install
$ cd installers
$ mvn clean install -Pbin{noformat}
Note that this will not generate a windows installer, but a binary package that
you will have to bundle yourself if you want to to be a service. You can still
launch the server using the {{apacheds.bat}} script.

> Hi Team,
> In my current enterprise's process, I have to test all the downloaded files
> within the [www.virustotal.com|http://www.virustotal.com/] site.
> I downloaded the release
> |apacheds-2.0.0-M24.exe|
> from this link :
> http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/download/download-windows.html
> (I tried several mirrors, same issue)
> and the virustotal analysis shows that 2 antivirus found a trojan or
> something similar (see attached analysis).
> Is it true ? Is it false positive ?
> I think you have to correct something on the exe, in order that it becomes
> proper for a virustotal analysis.
> Hipe this will help and sorry if this is not in the right Jira project...
> Best regards
> Karen
