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 Dmitri Pal 2010-05-19 14:16:41 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #593644 +++

Description of problem:
Empty list of simple_allow_users causes sssd service to fail while start/restart.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-1.1.92-11.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure sssd with access_provider as simple.
2. Make sure you keep "simple_allow_users" parameter blank.
3. Restart sssd service.
  
Actual results:
(Fri Apr 23 17:38:18 2010) [sssd] [confdb_init_db] (0): Failed to initialize DB (21,[Element simple_allow_users has empty attribute in ldb message (cn=LDAP,cn=domain,cn=config)!]), aborting!
(Fri Apr 23 17:38:18 2010) [sssd] [load_configuration] (0): ConfDB initialization has failed [Input/output error]

Expected results:
Empty simple_allow_users list shouldn't be a failure to start, should just be a warning that no users will be granted access.

We will address this post beta 2.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-05-19 14:35:33 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Comment 4 Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2010-07-26 10:27:08 UTC
SSSD starts/restarts successfully with the following message in its logs when "simple_allow_users" parameter is blank:

[sssm_simple_access_init] (9): Allow user list is empty.


Verified in sssd-1.2.1-20.el6.x86_64.

Comment 5 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 21:39:43 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
