Description of problem:
It is possible to delete the instance 'slapd-standalone' with remove-ds.pl tool, while specifying wrong prefix 'anyprefix-standalone'.
Version-Release number of selected component:
389-ds-base-1.3.5.10-5.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install an instance with a name 'standalone'
2. Run remove-ds.pl tool to remove it, but specify a wrong prefix instead of 'slapd'
$ remove-ds.pl -i 'anyprefix-standalone'
Actual results:
Instance anyprefix-standalone removed.
Expected results:
The following errors occurred during removal:
Error: could not find directory server configuration directory 'anyprefix-standalone'. Error: No such file or directory
Error: could not remove directory server standalone
Additional info:
/usr/sbin/remove-ds.pl contains the next line (50):
my ($slapd, $inst) = split(/-/, $instname, 2);
So it doesn't check that before '-' is 'slapd' prefix and then it just splits that part.
Hi Simon,
Since remove-ds.pl is part of 389-ds-base, updating the Product and Component...
And you are very welcome to provide a git patch since you've already figured how to fix it. ;) I'll review it and push it for you!
Thank you!!
