190445 - ldap addressbook only works correctly in debug mode

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Directory :: LDAP XPCOM SDK, defect)

Description

[Jim Campbell]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20030123
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20030123

I compile Mozilla 1.3a with following options:
unsetenv CC
unsetenv CCC
unsetenv CFLAGS
unsetenv CPPFLAGS
unsetenv LDFLAGS
unsetenv LD_RUN_PATH
setenv CC cc
setenv CCC CC
./configure --prefix=/opt/MOzilla \
#       --libdir=/opt/MOzilla/lib/mozilla \
#       --includedir=/opt/MOzilla/include/mozilla \
#       --sysconfdir=/etc/opt/MOzilla \
#       --localstatedir=/var/opt/MOzilla \
        --with-glib-prefix=/opt/GNUgnome \
        --with-libIDL-prefix=/opt/GNUgnome \
        --with-gtk-prefix=/opt/GNUgnome \
        --disable-gtktest \
#       --enable-default-mozilla-five-home=/opt/MOzilla \
        --enable-ldap \
        --enable-ldap-experimental \
        --enable-js-ultrasparc \
        --disable-tests \
        --disable-debug \
#        --disable-logging \
        --enable-crypto \
        --enable-strip 

ldap addressbook always returns zero matches when search on OpenLDAP 2.1.11
even though tracing through shows valid entries are returned.
If I configure/compile with:
unsetenv CC
unsetenv CCC
unsetenv CFLAGS
unsetenv CPPFLAGS
unsetenv LDFLAGS
unsetenv LD_RUN_PATH
setenv CC cc
setenv CCC CC
./configure --prefix=/opt/MOzilla \
#       --libdir=/opt/MOzilla/lib/mozilla \
#       --includedir=/opt/MOzilla/include/mozilla \
#       --sysconfdir=/etc/opt/MOzilla \
#       --localstatedir=/var/opt/MOzilla \
        --with-glib-prefix=/opt/GNUgnome \
        --with-libIDL-prefix=/opt/GNUgnome \
        --with-gtk-prefix=/opt/GNUgnome \
        --disable-gtktest \
#       --enable-default-mozilla-five-home=/opt/MOzilla \
        --enable-ldap \
        --enable-ldap-experimental \
        --enable-js-ultrasparc \
        --disable-tests \
        --disable-debug \
        --disable-logging \
        --enable-crypto \
        --enable-strip 

to enable logging it works fine.
It is still a little flaky in that if it thinks ldap connection is already
established it bombs out.
(###!!! ASSERTION: nsLDAPConnection::Init() Connection was already initialized

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. compile/configure without debugging
2. set up ldap addressbook to directory with user email entries
3. search on anything! and get 0 matches found
4. compile/configure with debugging
5. set up ldap addressbook to directory with user email entries
6. search on anything! and get valid matches




This seems to work ok with Netscape 7 as provided by Sun.
I had the same results when trying Mozilla 1.2.1 and 1.0.2
as for Mozilla 1.3a. with the above compile/configure options.
Strangely I also cannot get the ldap URL ie ldap://<ldaphost>:389/ to
work either it just hangs using 98% cpu!! even on valid host which
may be similar to 79509.

Jim, this seems a bug on some very old code (Mozilla 1.3a). I've never heard of anyone having problems with this, and I think we can just close it. Jim, if you're still having problems with the latest sources, please enquire on mozilla.dev.tech.ldap (on the news.mozilla.org server) or raise a fresh bug.
