[midPoint] New ldap connector and auxiliary objectClasses

Hi,
  I was doing a delete of the resource from configuration each time before importing the resource; was not
  expecting the schema to have survived ... although I did not do that for the last test before post, else I may
  have caught one issue; thx for reminding me.
  A number of directories, including OpenDJ, IBM, etc, support schema definition using a unique string instead
  of OID (dotted notation). This makes the process easier, less prone to error, and you don't have to track
  OID numbers actively. When defining my auxiliary objectClas in this way, midpoint seems to ignore it, e.g.:
    attributeTypes: ( myCallSign-OID NAME 'myCallSign' DESC 'Call Sign' EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch ORDERING caseIgnoreOrderingMatch SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 USAGE userApplications )
    objectClasses: ( myPerson-OID NAME 'myPerson' DESC 'My Person' SUP top AUXILIARY MAY ( myCallSign ) )
  If however I use dotted notation OID, the objectClass is recognised, e.g.:
  attributeTypes: ( 2.1.1.1.1 NAME 'myCallSign' DESC 'Call Sign' EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch ORDERING caseIgnoreOrderingMatch SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 USAGE userApplications )
  objectClasses: ( 2.1.1.1.0 NAME 'myPerson' DESC 'My Person' SUP top AUXILIARY MAY ( myCallSign ) )
  In 3.1.1 with the old connector the first definition worked and I have used this syntax for several years;
  hope we do not have to regress ...
Regards,
  Anton

    Hi,
    
    do you have your new attributes (coming from ri:myPerson) in the
    resource <schema>? (Not in schema handling).
    
    To be sure, edit please your resource using Configuration -
    Repository objects and delete <schema> .. .</schema>
    element and then save and try to test connection. After this, check
    the <schema> element if it contains your ri:myPerson object
    class and its attributes...
    
    My coleagues are using this new LDAP connector (but in master) and
    there were some fixes, but I can't tell now if it was related to
    auxiliary classes.

      When having attributes defined in the schema handling, midPoint
      complains about them;
      When only the auxiliary objectClass defined, midPoint says it
      can't be found. myCallSign
      is an attribute of myPerson objectClass.

        Hi,
        could you please paste your <objectType> definition from
        schema handling?

        Hi Guys,
          
            Trying to use the new LDAP connector in 3.2; but having
          issues with my auxiliary objectClass.
          
            I have tried using:
          <auxiliaryObjectClass>ri:myPerson</auxiliaryObjectClass>
            in the account section of schema definition. This seems to
          be the method implied by the UNIX user
            sample scenario ... although not used on the account section
          per se.
          
            After resource load, which is apparently successful,
          browsing to "List resources" throws an error
            that the objectclass myPerson was not found. When looking at
          the objectClasses listed in the
            connector, it does not seem to be listed. Also enable read
          schema, seems to make not diff. Tried
            test connection; again no diff.
          
            This used to work with 3.1.1 and the previous connector.
          
            If I do a ldapsearch for schema on OpenDJ, my custom
          objectclass is returned; Apache Directory
            Studio also recognises the auxiliary objectclass. Thus, is
          this:
              - an issue with how I'm referencing
            the auxiliary objectClass?
                - a bug in the new LDAP connector?
              - Something else?
          
          Thx,
             Anton
