From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 Description of problem: After upgrading to the openldap-2.0.27-2.7.3, my web500gw web-to-ldap gateway broke. Some investigation suggests that the call to ldap_getfirstfilter() fails here: /* try all filters til we have success */ for (fi = ldap_getfirstfilter(r->r_access->a_filtd, filtertype, search_filter); fi != NULL; fi = ldap_getnextfilter(r->r_access->a_filtd)) { A printf("got here") shows that we get to the line before, but we never get either into the body of the for-loop, nor do we get to the code after the end of the loop. The main web500gw process catches a child signal at this point, and HTML output stops. I'll try and find time to play with this a bit more, but right now I've had to rollback to openldap-2.0.23-4, with all its attendent security problems :-( Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Don't have a simple test case yet. Additional info:
ldap_getfirstfilter() and friends are obsoleted anyway (and are removed completely in OpenLDAP 2.1.x). So there's no point in worrying about this anymore. I've fixed my immediate problem by statically linking web500gw against OpenLDAP 2.0.23. You can resolve this as WONTFIX or whatever is most appropriate.
