When I go to the calendar and try to invite attendee to book a resource
I am seeing some odd behavior. On the web interface some users are
having the problem where they cannot pull from ldap on certain lookups
where others are not having the issue.
For instance: Going to create a new event and inviting one of our cars
you would go to invite attendee and type "car" without the quotes
obviously. That should return all results in ldap that have "car" in the
name. All the vehicles are named carXXYYYYYZZZ@domain where XX is the 2
digit year and YYYY is the color and ZZZ is the model. We also have
users with "car" in their name which should pull when you search for
"car" but on the affected users it doesn't even do that.
Now if the affected users need to book a car they have to type "car ".
That's a space after car. And for some reason that works. This does not
affect all users, and does not affect me. I can not find any rhyme or
reason as to what causes this either. It is not an issue if you compose
an email to the user/resource in the web interface though. Looking in
the logs I cannot see anything odd either.
If you search in LDAP for "car" (e.g with ldapsearch), do you get more
entries than you see in the list to choose from?
I've found no regular sorting within the resulting list. So sometimes a
user is listed and sometimes not when the result is truncated.
Perhaps that is your problem.
Check this by narrowing your search further, e.g. with "carXX".
Kind regards,

Actually that is the problem. When searching for "car" or "car*" I get
the same number of results from the command line. But when searching for
car in the calendar some users get all the cars and any user that has
"car" in their name while others get nothing until hitting car SPACEBAR.
I can't find any rhyme or reason to what users can do it properly or
not. The only remote possibility is that the users that are having
problems we have imported their contacts in ldif format from
thunderbird/seamonkey into the web interface.
