Hi,
there seems to be a problem when expanding variables containing a single '%' in value in dovecot V2.3.6
having a user defined Variable in user_attrs like
user_attrs = name=home=/maildir/%Ln, =myvar=path/%L{ldap:sAMAccountName}
and sAMAccountName conains a '%', in my example "sonder%zeichen" leads to:
lda(sonder%zeichen)<5723><ov9uCHjOGV1bFgAACDoIoQ>: Fatal: Failed to expand plugin setting myvar = 'path/sonder%zeichen': Unknown variable '%z'
same setup works with dovecot 2.2.29
Any Feedback appreciated. Thanks. Matze
You can use %% to escape a %

Hi Aki,
nope this doesnt work. if I use 'sonder%%zeichen', the ldap lookup searches for the User/Value "sonder%%zeichen" in ldap/AD. what fails, as this user doesnt exist.
and I cant escape the value in all cases anyway, as its an remote value, coming from the ldap server.
seems to me the sequence of intepreting variables and modifiers changed between 2.2 ans 2.3 now it gets the variable value from remote in the first place, and interprets the value itself for more variables or modifiers, which might not be what you want.
like in a subquery using
@mail=%{ldap:mailDN}
but I dont use subqueries. just a simple expansion
=myvar=%{ldap:mailDN}
any more ideas?
I have to investigate this a bit.
Aki
Seems to be a bug of a kind. I'll open it in our issue tracker.
Aki
thx for your effort Aki. If I can help out testing a patch, just let me know
