Description Sönke Schwardt-Krummrich univentionstaff 2016-12-09 15:35:57 CET
simplePolicy.create() does not return DN of created object. It returns always None. In contrast simpleLdap.create() always returns the DN of the new object.

This causes UCS@school to create incorrect messages, e.g.
"Created object None" and is IMHO problematic, since currently the DN of the new object can only be safely determined by a LDAP search.

Patch draft for create()

It has to be checked if other methods like modify() are also affected.

Because of this there is workaround code in management/univention-directory-manager-modules/modules/univention/admincli/admin.py:
   819 »   »   »   »   if not dn:
   820 »   »   »   »   »   dn = object.dn

The School Customer affected flag is set but neither a Ticket number is referenced nor a Customer ID is set. Please set a Ticket number or a Customer ID. Otherwise the School Customer affected flag will be reset.
