Description of problem: When the CN attribute is missing the group, JOn is unable to pick up the groups. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): JON 2.4.0 How reproducible: Create a LDAP group that doesn't contain CN attributes, and run the LDAPTestSettings.jar You will see null at the groupFilter. ------------------------------- STEP-3:TESTING: This ldap filter (objectclass=groupOfNames) will be used to locate ALL available LDAP groups ------------------------------- ------------------------------- STEP-3:FAIL: There was an error searching with the groupFilter supplied: objectclass=groupOfNames' null ------------------------------- Actual results: Null pointer returned. Expected results: It should be able to return a list of groups. Additional info: There is a workaround, try to modify the 'group filter' entry to have LDAP exclusion logic to hide those groups from the RHQ LDAP search. Ex. &(objectclass=groupOfNames)(!cn='') The only problem with this approach is that this is a large amount of groups.
Here is the case for more details: 00382109 Can we get it fixed in 2.4.1?
