11098 - LDAP error on close

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Directory Graveyard :: PerLDAP, defect, P3)

From: [e-mail] (Max Bloch)

I am seeing an LDAP error on closing a connection. The message is "Bad parameter
to an LDAP routine" and it
definitely is happening somewhere inside PerLDAP "close" (there is no error
condition immediately prior to
the close). It does not appear to have any damaging consequences, though.

More from Max:



Here's what I found:

(a) perform several operations on the $entry and check for error condition after
each one:
          $ldap->printError() if $ldap->getErrorCode();
      No errors

(b) $ldap->update( $entry );
      check for errors:
          $ldap->printError() if $ldap->getErrorCode();
      No errors

(c) $ldap->close;
     $ldap->printError() if $ldap->getErrorCode();
     Result is:
     "Bad parameter to an LDAP routine"

For now, this will not work (the LD connection handle is gone after the close).
We've changed the error handling so at least you won't get a funky error
message. We'll add some functionality for the v2.0 version, probably caching the
last error code in the Conn:: object.
