247524 - LDAP directories no longer work from select address window

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Address Book & Contacts, defect)

Description

[Ian Neal]

Using BuildID 2004061507 on WinXPsp1
Steps to Reproduce
1. Have an LDAP directory server setup and configure under addressing
2. Open compose window
3. Click on Address icon
4. Select LDAP server from the "Look in" drop down
5. Start to type a known entry into the "for" field

Expected Results
1. Listing of matching entries appear

Actual Results
1. Nothing is listed

If you select from the Window menu, Address Book then that works fine and so
does the compose window's autocomplete.
 
This regression happened somewhere between BuildID 2004041709 and BuildID
2004042010.

I see this too - probably the ldap v3 stuff

I think the problem is that the mSortColumn is not set...which causes some
NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, rv) to abort adding cards to the view.

I have a work-around for this, but I'd like to figure out why we're losing the
sort column when switching directories...

Attachment: workaround fix...

this fixes the problem for me...
