Description Vivek Ponnaiyan 2003-02-27 21:47:28 UTC
Description of Problem:
1. Evolution sends out an LDAP abandon request packet right after the
search request packet regardless of your timeout setting.
2. Evolution sends out the scope to be "Base" when you set the scope 
to be "Sub" (Base is not listed in drop down box... only Sub and One are..)

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Add an LDAP server to evolution to log in anonymously... 
2. Set the scope to be "Sub"
3. Set timeout to 5 minutes.
4. Run ethereal to capture packets sent to port 389...

Actual Results:

This is the Summary of packets sent...

    Message: Id=4  Abandon Request
        Message Length: 1
        Abandon Msg Id: 3

Expected Results:

1. search request should be sent..
2. And if 5 minutes pass without a response ..only then should an abandon
request be sent.....


How often does this happen? 

Everytime.

Additional Information:
I have tested this same LDAP server using ldapsearch and the
server works fine....
Comment 1 Devashish Sharma 2006-01-25 09:43:29 UTC
A lot of changes have been done to the ldap backend.
Can you please try with the latest version of evolution and evolution-data-server.
Changing to NEEDINFO, please reopen if found to happen in the latest version.
