Summary: Kaddressbook causes a "Size limit exceeded" on server
by not support ing the paging extension
Product: kaddressbook
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: ldap search
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2)
OS: Linux
It seems that my company's LDAP server has a limit smaller than the number of
employees (> 1000). While setting the limit field in the query pane is fine,
the server still sends an error if the number of results exceeds that limit.
What the actual fix should be is using the simple paging extension as described
in RFC 2696.
With the command line tool ldapsearch the following parameters work:
ldapsearch -LLL -h <server> -x -W -D <user> -b <base> "(objectClass=user)" cn
objectClass -E pr=100
prints several results and then
Press [size] Enter for the next {100|size} entries.
Which returns the next 100 entries.
With nromal limiting like this
ldapsearch -LLL -h <server> -x -W -D <user> -b <base> "(objectClass=user)" cn
objectClass -E pr=100
I get:
Size limit exceeded (4)
Together with bug 274007, this is quite annoying.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Query an LDAP server that has more entries than either the configured or
specified size limit.
Actual Results:
Kaddressbook does not create an address book due to the server error message.
Expected Results:
Kaddressbook should use the paging extension and query the huge address book
page by page, as to not exceed the size limitation.
