Summary: DES to AES password conversion fails if a backend is empty

Whiteboard:
Fixed In Version: 389-ds-base-1.3.5.2-1.el7 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Password conversion from *DES* to *AES* now works properly During the upgrade from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1 to 7.2, the encryption algorithm used by the *Reversible Password Plug-in* was changed from *DES* to *AES*. Directory Server automatically converted all passwords to the new algorithm upon upgrade. However, password conversion failed with an `error 32` if any defined back end was missing the top entry. Additionally, even if the conversion failed, _389-ds-base_ still disabled the *DES* plug-in, which caused existing passwords to fail to decode. This bug has been fixed, _389-ds-base_ now ignores errors when searching back ends for passwords to convert, and the *DES* plug-in is now only disabled after all passwords are successfully converted to *AES*.

Description mreynolds 2016-03-23 19:38:27 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/48777

At server startup the server tries to convert any DES passwords to AES.  But if a defined backend does not have any entries(err=32) when this process quits and it stops trying to convert DES passwords.  It should continue to try all the backends, even if it encounters an error.
