Description Martin Kosek 2014-11-03 12:18:51 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1150040 +++

Description of problem:
I tried to migrate a openldap based directory to FreeIPA, while removing several objectclasses. --user-ignore-attribute didn't work.

The Problem seems to be, that the LDAPEntry Object entry_attry in migration.py isn't lowercased while the blacklist is force to lower case by the script.

the problem can be resolved by replacing
        if attr in attr_blacklist:
with:
        if attr.lower() in attr_blacklist:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.0.3 on Fedora 20


How reproducible: use migrate-ds with --user-ignore-attribute

Steps to Reproduce:
1. 
2.
3.

Actual results:

error:
Failed user:
  xxx: attribute "shadowLastChange" not allowed
  xxx: attribute "shadowLastChange" not allowed


Expected results:
user is migrated

Thanks for the bug report! I will clone it to upstream Trac. The change looks OK, would you consider sending it in form of a patch to freeipa-devel list? This way, your contribute could be recognized in FreeIPA git repository!

How to verify this?

Comment 4 Martin Kosek 2015-01-12 12:20:28 UTC
As noted in the description, you would need to setup Directory Server which returns attributes with mixed case (like OpenLDAP) and try to run migrate-ds and blacklist some mixed-case attribute.

Jan, do you know about an easier change with 389 DS how to reproduce this issue?

Comment 5 Jan Cholasta 2015-01-12 12:29:21 UTC
Maybe install IPA A, look for mixed-case attribute names in "ipa user-find --all --raw" output, run migrate-ds on IPA B from IPA A and blacklist some of the mixed-case attributes. Or you can add some custom user schema to IPA A and set a mixed-case attribute on a user before migrating.
