Description Valentin Heidelberger univentionstaff 2018-11-30 12:17:29 CET
With UCS@school 4.3 v4 a role attribute for all UCS@school objects was added. To use this a UCR variable must be activated: ucsschool/feature/roles=yes

If this feature is activated and one tries to create a school with a school server, that already exists as a computer object, in a multi server environment the UMC throws a traceback. Despite of the error and the wizard not closing, the school is still silently created but without a school server, even though this is a required field.

The error does not appear, if the school server, does not have a computer object by the same name.

To reproduce:
- UCS@school multi server environment installed
- Join UCS slave to the domain
- ucr set ucsschool/feature/roles=yes
- Create new school via UMC "Schulen" module
- Specify name of slave as school server

Comment 1 Valentin Heidelberger univentionstaff 2018-11-30 12:26:50 CET
The script migrate_ucsschool_roles that was introduced with bug 45379 succeeds in adding the ucsschoolRole attribute to existing school server slaves:

ucsschoolRole: dc_slave_edu_secondary:school:s1

This can be used for a workaround that I tested successfully:
- temporarily unset ucsschool/feature/roles
- create the school with the school server
- set the UCRV to yes again
- use the migration script to add the attribute:
/usr/share/ucs-school-import/scripts/migrate_ucsschool_roles --schools <school OU> --servers-school 

to actually apply the changes:
/usr/share/ucs-school-import/scripts/migrate_ucsschool_roles --schools <school OU> --servers-school --modify
Comment 2 Valentin Heidelberger univentionstaff 2018-11-30 17:10:55 CET
I have a few customers who'll need this feature soon, which is why I increased the user pain.

Also the workaround from the last comment, seemingly requires the user to log out and in again to the UMC. Just setting the variable without that still causes a traceback and wrong school creation in my test env.
Comment 3 Ole Schwiegert univentionstaff 2018-12-11 09:12:41 CET
This problem originates from an undiscovered mistake I made a while ago when creating the new create_ou script:

if ucr.is_true('ucsschool/feature/roles') and dc:
  dc['ucsschool_roles'] = [create_ucsschool_role_string(role_dc_slave_edu,self.name)]
  dc.modify()

has to be

if ucr.is_true('ucsschool/feature/roles') and dc:
  dc.ucsschool_roles = [create_ucsschool_role_string(role_dc_slave_edu,self.name)]
  dc.modify(lo)

After fixing this though, a new error occured that I could not figure out on first glance:

KeyError: 'school'


It seems that for the role feature it is somehow required for the DC udm object to posess the school property which is not present yet. The SchoolDCSlave object has the school set, but upon modification it seems to be accessed before it was saved into the underlying udm object.

You'll have to do the same as was done in groups.py for ComputerRoom:

Comment 6 Jürn Brodersen univentionstaff 2018-12-12 11:59:28 CET
What I tested:
Created a school with an existing dc object using create_ou:
  No error, role is set -> OK

YAML -> OK
