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). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Alexey Tikhonov 2020-11-22 15:50:18 UTC

ldap_install_tls() should return meaningful error code that would allow to figure out a reason of the fail, especially network IO fail due to EITR.

This is required for bz 1839972 - please check details and rationale there.

Comment 1 Simon Pichugin 2021-02-19 12:48:33 UTC

I've created an OpenLDAP issue with my findings:
https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9474

Comment 2 Simon Pichugin 2021-03-16 12:44:18 UTC

The upstream bug was closed as WONTFIX with the following message:

"OpenLDAP supports multiple TLS implementations where this behavior can differ depending on implementation, so a man page patch is not appropriate. Thank you though!"

Hence closing this BZ as WONTFIX because it's too time-consuming and risky to proceed without Upstream support.

We'll need to find another way to help bz 1839972.
