Description Stefan Gohmann univentionstaff 2018-11-02 15:10:28 CET
If I open the samba domain object in the LDAP directory browser, I always see the following notification:

> Notification
> The following empty properties were set to default values in the form. These 
> values will be applied when saving.
> 
>     General - Password - Passwords must meet complexity requirements: true
>     General - Password - Store plaintext passwords: false

The LDAP object:

Let's better fix this correctly as soon as possible.
1 second can easily happen with slow network connections e.g. on mobile devices.

Do you know which widgets are affected?
Comment 3 Florian Best univentionstaff 2019-02-25 12:35:54 CET
See also Bug #46529, which might is only a workaround for broken widgets.
Comment 4 Jürn Brodersen univentionstaff 2019-02-25 14:08:57 CET
The following is mostly a guess:
This seems to occur with widgets that depend on widgets without a ready function (e.g. TextBox.js). Normally a widget would get its value through DetailPage.js before _getInintialValue is called. But since the dependency mechanism fills out the value, this is not guaranteed to happen

In this case all values were supplied through the first udm get call without any additional umcp calls. So this does not need to be triggered through a slow network connection. But I think it might be as well if any umcp calls are involved.


I would like to see a fix for this, too. :)
But I think this is not trivial to fix.

The get/ call when receiving objects fill in default values into the form. But the form doesn't send all data so that only the difference / changed values are send back to the backend. Therefore for default attributes which are unset no changes are detected and not saved on modify() currently.

The cause is:
