RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit).

Description of problem:

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

authconfig-gtk-6.1.16-1.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. system-config-gtk
2. set some parameters, such as an LDAP configuration
3. click apply
  
Actual results:

[root@briemersw sssd]# system-config-authentication 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/system-config-authentication", line 701, in <module>
    module.apply()
  File "/usr/sbin/system-config-authentication", line 650, in apply

  File "/usr/share/authconfig/authinfo.py", line 3632, in writeChanged
    ret = ret and group.saveFunction()
  File "/usr/share/authconfig/authinfo.py", line 2974, in writeSSSD
    self.sssdConfig.save_domain(domain)

    if o['type'] == type and o['name'] == name:
TypeError: 'int' object is not subscriptable


Expected results:

I cannot reproduce the problem on my freshly updated Fedora 16 VM. The traceback comes from the SSSD configuration API, reassigning.

Created attachment 532688 [details]
/etc/sssd/sssd.conf causing the error

It looks like the code that is reporting the error is designed to remove unrecognised options from the config file.   I do not know which option it is causing the problem.   Based on the idea that it works with a fresh install, I replaced this file with the fresh install file and reconfigured from scratch.

In my case (merged bug 752741) this was a pristine F16 install and no custom sssd.conf.

Cause: A bug in the SSSD configuration parser crashed the parser library when an old SSSD configuration domain was removed and a new one was saved

Consequence: Applications that use the configuration parser such as authconfig would crash

Fix: Removing old configuration domains and saving new ones was fixed on the SSSD configuration parser

Result: Tools that use the configuration parser such as authconfig work fine now

Comment 4 Kaushik Banerjee 2012-04-26 05:54:16 UTC

Deleted older domains from sssd.conf and updated ldap configuration from system-config-authentication.
