Description Mikael 2006-04-26 14:31:43 UTC 
Description of problem:

With the uniqueness plugin activated, creating a new entry violating the created
constraint generates a generic message.
It would be more user-friendly to give the name of the concerned attribute.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Activate the uniqueness plugin for an attribute.
Create a new entry reusing the value of an existing entry.
Read the error message


Actual results:

Problem

An error occurred while contacting the LDAP server.
(Constraint violation - Another entry with the same attribute value already exists)

The server was unable to fulfill your request, because the request violates a
constraint. 

Expected results:

Problem

An error occurred while contacting the LDAP server.
(Constraint violation - Another entry with the same value for attribute
"name_of_attribute" already exists)

The server was unable to fulfill your request, because the request violates a
constraint on attribute "name_of_attribute".
