Hide Forgot
I updated my rawhide machine today and found that autofs no longer likes the automount maps it gets via LDAP. The same maps work fine on all of the other systems and were working fine previous to this update. I am currently running autofs-5.0.3-8.i386; the previous version which worked was autofs-5.0.3-6.i386. I'm not sure if -7 made it out to the mirrors. I turned on some debugging and extracted some data from the logs; it seems that it doesn't like the master map: Mar 25 11:12:07 temp2 automount[2662]: syntax error in map near [ /home ] Mar 25 11:12:07 temp2 automount[2662]: syntax error while parsing map. But the map in question is just: # /home, auto.master, math.uh.edu dn: cn=/home,nisMapName=auto.master,dc=math,dc=uh,dc=edu objectClass: nisObject cn: /home nisMapName: auto.master nisMapEntry: ldap:nisMapName=auto.home,dc=math,dc=uh,dc=edu I can attach more of the log if you need it, but I'm guessing that the recent changes to the master map parser have made things a bit stricter.
Just for kicks, I rebuilt without autofs-5.0.3-map-type-in-map-name.patch and things work fine now.
Oops, didn't catch that. Try revision 9, which should be on it's way to the mirrors now.
-9 seems to work fine, thanks.
I've discovered a case where my initial patch didn't work. Could you revision 10 when you get a chance please.
(In reply to comment #4) > Could you revision 10 when you get a chance please. Ha, that would be "Could you test out revision 10". Sorry for the inconvenience. Ian
Unfortunately autofs-5.0.3-10.i386 does not work for me; I'm back to the original error output: Mar 31 10:43:31 temp2 automount[2737]: lookup_read_master: lookup(ldap): searching for "(objectclass=nisObject)" under "nisMapName=auto.master,dc=math,dc=uh,dc=edu" Mar 31 10:43:31 temp2 automount[2737]: lookup_read_master: lookup(ldap): examining entries Mar 31 10:43:31 temp2 automount[2737]: syntax error in map near [ /home ] Mar 31 10:43:31 temp2 automount[2737]: syntax error while parsing map.
*sigh*, please try revision 11.
-11 seems to work OK.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Looks like this is should be fixed in the latest update so I'm closing the bug. Please re-open if this is still a problem.
