Thanks Bert

 

Are also you able to provide any comments or advice on the other issues I’m facing?

 

1.       When I move or delete a group in Grouper, that change is not going through to AD

2.       When PSP-NG can’t update AD, the whole process gets stuck and no other updates go through. It doesn’t skip the one it’s having a problem with.

 

As I said before, I’m not sure if this is an issue with PSP-NG or with my config so any advice would be welcome!

 

Thanks
Dave

bushyDn should already do all the escaping that is necessary. It was tested with OU commas and escapleLdapRdn was tested with group-name commas, but I'm duplicating and patching the problem with bushyDn and group-name commas/pluses.

Good afternoon

I see that Bert has released a patch for issue https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-1533

I've installed the patch but I'm still seeing the same issue (with  + and , for example).

I suspect that I need to do something with utils.escapeLdapRdn(string) in grouper-loader.properties. I've tried various things but haven't been able to work it out yet. Any advice, please?

I've attached the relevant part of grouper-loader.properties.

Thanks
Dave
