Hi Markus,
when I analyze both dump, what I can say is that the PDU lengths are
different. The first one (windows) has this DN :
uid=Jeder,cn=users,dc=VERWALTUNG,dc=DOUGLASHOLDING
The second one, Cent OS, contains spaces :
uid=Jedel, cn=users, dc=VERWALMUNG, dc=DOUGLASHOLDING
This is why you have different lengths (3 bytes, as we have three spaces).
As you may use different JVMs on those two servers, the attributes
order may vary too. Which JVM are you using ?
Here are the decoded messages :
on windows :
0x30 0x81 0xAD
0x02 0x01 0x02
0x64 0x81 0xA7
0x04 0x32

One hypothesis is that you injected the last DN with spaces, which
should not be a pb at all, as spaces around ',' are to be ignored. Of
course, if you simply compare the resulting DN as strings, then you
will have a pb. You should use some of the JNDI methods to do those
comparisons (Name class)
Hope it helps

Hi list-users,
I do have problem with my content management system working with
apacheds on a windows 2003 server installation.
My content management system (coremmedia 2005) tries to identify each
user by ldap request against apacheds 1.5.x ldap server.
What I found out is, that the ldap request against an apacheds-1.5.x on
a windows 2003 server system isnt successful, while the same request
against a centos 4.3 or fedora 7 apacheds-1.5.x installation is successful.
How did I find that out? Well, I configured my CMS to connect against
apacheds-1.5.x on a windows 2003 server, where apacheds logs are in
debug mode. Then I tried to load CMS startpage, which is not successful.
Then I did the same with CMS connected against apacheds-1.5.x running on
centos 4.3 with logfiles in debug mode. Now the startpage was loaded.
I then searched thru the logfiles and found out the following:
- the search request from CMS is always the following:

But the next line in debug log which contains the Encoded PDU differs
from windows 2003 server to centos43.
The windows 2003 encoded PDU looks like this:

Putting this two PDU strings in a small program that converts that hex
strings to readable char string delivers the following:
Windows 2003 Server:
0 ° d ª 5uid=Jeder, cn=users, dc=VERWALTUNG,
dc=DOUGLASHOLDING0q0
sn1 Jeder0A objectClass12 person organizationalPerson
inetOrgPerson top0 cn1 Jeder0 uid1 Jeder
CentOs 4.3:

Jeder0
sn1 Jeder0
cn1 Jeder0A objectClass12 organizationalPerson person
inetOrgPerson top
My question is: what makes the difference? Where is the mistake? Where
is my mistake? What can I do? Is it a bug?
Any tips and hints are really appreciated. If neccessary, I can send
server.xml and logfiles from both servers, or whatever is needed.
Thanks in advance,
Markus
