Description Sergey S. Starikoff 2009-03-02 08:41:07 UTC

After upgrade our LDAP server from OpenLDAP 2.3.43 on FreeBSD 6.2 to OpenLDAP2.4.14 on FreeBSD 7.1, my e-mail client Thunderbird (mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird Installed versions:  2.0.0.19) fails to read from Adressbook on LDAP-server (authorization is required).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup nearly standard openldap24-server on FreeBSD 7.1
2. Build Thunderbird with LDAP-support on Gentoo.
3. Create some users accounts in ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
4. Create some adressbook entries in ou=Adressbook,dc=mydomain,dc=com
5. Ensure, that everythink is OK by executing:
$ ldapsearch -x -h ldap.mydomain.com -D "uid=user,ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com" -W -b "ou=Adressbook,dc=mydomain,dc=com"
6. Add LDAP directory in Thunderbird and try to make replication.
Actual Results:  
Replication error.

Expected Results:  
Success search and some adressbook entries, as it was, when I've used OpenLDAP 2.3

When LDAP server is started with loglevel 256 success search in slapd.log look like:

Mar  2 11:24:04 mx4 slapd[975]: conn=0 fd=10 ACCEPT from IP=192.168.1.16:50524 (IP=192.168.1.1:389)

Mar  2 11:24:05 mx4 slapd[975]: conn=0 op=2 UNBIND
Mar  2 11:24:05 mx4 slapd[975]: conn=0 fd=10 closed

And when I'm trying to make replication from Thunderbird I get:

Mar  2 11:24:43 mx4 slapd[975]: conn=1 fd=10 ACCEPT from IP=192.168.1.16:50590 (IP=192.168.1.1:389)

Mar  2 11:24:43 mx4 slapd[975]: conn=1 op=2 UNBIND

Comment 1 Sergey S. Starikoff 2009-03-03 06:28:47 UTC

Thunderburd fails to authorise only when replication is requested.
Simple search works normailly.
It's fixed in 3.x branch.

OK. Let's wait the Thunderbird 3.0 release :)
