Description of problem: When trying to add a custom field to the usersearch using config-mod does not specify the error. For example, i was trying to add a custom field and it said "not allowed" and "Validation Error", after some debug i matched the custom field must be in lowercase.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Freeipa 4.2.3 and 4.2.4
How reproducible: Trying adding some custom field with wrong sintax.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ipa -d config-mod --usersearch="uid,givenname,sn,cn,mail,myCustomField"
fail
2. ipa -d config-mod --usersearch="uid,givenname,sn,cn,mail,mycustomField"
ok
Actual results:
ipa: DEBUG: stderr=
ipa: DEBUG: Starting external process
ipa: DEBUG: args='keyctl' 'pupdate' '340300374'
ipa: DEBUG: Process finished, return code=0
ipa: DEBUG: stdout=
ipa: DEBUG: stderr=
ipa: DEBUG: Destroyed connection context.rpcclient_140074165811664
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'ipausersearchfields': attribute "myCustomField" not allowed
Expected results: ok (config changed)
Additional info: For the record i added the custom schema 1 month ago, and after that i restarted the ipa server several times, and i already have some users with that custom field.
Opening this bug as requested by rcrit.
