Philip, This does not work with 4.63
Here is a trace with the following command line on Solaris with Exim
compiled against Solaris Lib LDAP
(I am using Solaris 9 with a recent recommended patch list as of August
2006).
# ./bin/exim -d+all -C configure.exim.list -bt
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 2>ldap.stderr
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cannot be resolved at this time:
condition check lookup defer
The output of stderr is attached below. You will see that it returns
return codes 94 and 115 which a grep of /usr/include/ldap.c
Gives
# grep '94' /usr/include/ldap.h
#define LDAP_NO_RESULTS_RETURNED 0x5e /* 94 - LDAPv3 */
# grep '115' /usr/include/ldap.h
#define LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE 0x73 /* 115 */
And a search for LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE and LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE
gives
# grep LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE /usr/include/ldap.h
#define LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE 0x73 /* 115 */
# grep LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT /usr/include/ldap.h
#define LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT 0x65 /* 101 */
The problem seems to be in src/lookups/ldap.c
Here the case of having a LDAP lib which deals with references
(lines 804 to 819) is caught in one place:
/* A return code that isn't -1 doesn't necessarily mean there were no
problems
with the search. The message must be an LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT or
LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE or else it's something we can't handle. Some
versions
of LDAP do not define LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE (LDAP v1 is one, it
seems). So
we don't provide that functionality when we can't. :-) */
if (rc != LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT
#ifdef LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE
&& rc != LDAP_RES_SEARCH_REFERENCE
#endif
)
{
*errmsg = string_sprintf("ldap_result returned unexpected code %d",
rc);
goto RETURN_ERROR;
}
But at no point latter in the code is the reference dealt with and we
end up parsing the (null) results and then getting blown out at (lines
867-891):
if (rc != LDAP_SUCCESS && rc != LDAP_SIZELIMIT_EXCEEDED)
{
*errmsg = string_sprintf("LDAP search failed - error %d: %s%s%s%s%s",
rc,
(error1 != NULL)? error1 : US"",
(error2 != NULL && error2[0] != 0)? US"/" : US"",
(error2 != NULL)? error2 : US"",
(matched != NULL && matched[0] != 0)? US"/" : US"",
(matched != NULL)? matched : US"");
#if defined LDAP_NAME_ERROR
if (LDAP_NAME_ERROR(rc))
#elif defined NAME_ERROR /* OPENLDAP1 calls it this */
if (NAME_ERROR(rc))
#else
if (rc == LDAP_NO_SUCH_OBJECT)
#endif
{
DEBUG(D_lookup) debug_printf("lookup failure forced\n");
error_yield = FAIL;
}
goto RETURN_ERROR;
}
