Issue #197 has been updated by Sébastien Bahloul.
It seems to have something related to http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/beyond/names/syntax.html because the backslash comes from DirContext.search method itself. ---------------------------------------- Bug #197: Problem with DN that has a # sign http://tools.lsc-project.org/issues/show/197 Author: Samuel Tran Status: New Priority: High Assigned to: Sébastien Bahloul Category: Core Target version: 1.2.0 I have installed LSC 1.2 using the snapshot lsc-core-1.2-SNAPSHOT-dist.tar.gz from 04/14/2010 on CentOS Linux 5.4. I want to synchronize two OpenLDAP Directories: the source directory is OpenLDAP 2.3.x and the destination is OpenLDAP 2.4.x. Some DNs in the source directory have a # sign, e.g: dn: cn=Elevator#2,ou=Subscribers,dc=example,dc=com objectClass: inetOrgPerson givenName: Elevator uid: Elevator#2 cn: Elevator#2 sn: #2 My LSC synchronization is as follows: lsc.syncoptions.MySyncTask = org.lsc.beans.syncoptions.PropertiesBasedSyncOptions lsc.syncoptions.MySyncTask.default.action = F When I first ran lsc, it created all the DNs in the destination directory. Then I ran it again. Even though no changes were made in the source directory, it tries to rename the DNs with a # sign. For instance it tries to rename 'cn=Elevator#2,ou=Subscribers,dc=example,dc=com'; here is the ouput of the lcs run: Apr 15 15:10:28 - WARN - WARNING: updating the RDN of the entry will cancel other modifications! Relaunch synchronization to complete update. Apr 15 15:10:28 - INFO - # Renaming entry cn=Elevator\#2,ou=TelecomAssets for MySyncTask dn: cn=Elevator\#2,ou=TelecomAssets,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modrdn newrdn: ou=TelecomAssets deleteoldrdn: 1 newsuperior: cn=Elevator\#2 Then I ran lsc for a third time, the DN was not renamed and I still got the same error message. I guess lsc is escaping the # sign with a backslash, which is causing that problem.
