Description Aurélien 2011-11-14 13:27:19 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

When a LDAP entry is updated (with kaddressbook) modifications are not propagated to the LDAP server. Moreover if a new contact is added to a LDAP resource (with kaddressbook) the contact is not added to the LDAP server.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update a contact contained in a LDAP resource with kaddressbook
2. Check the consistency of your LDAP server with another tool and compare the contact entry
3. Mismatch..

or
1. Add a contact to a LDAP resource
2. Try to find the new contact on your LDAP server with another tool
3. The new contact doesn't exist

Actual Results:  
The contact entry is not updated or the new contact is not present

Expected Results:  
The contact entry have to be updated and the new contact added to the LDAP server.

I always seen this bug.. It never worked since kaddressbook uses akonadi!

Looks like an old but I am still seeing this, anyone any ideas if this is likely to get fixed ever?

Comment 2 tony den haan 2014-06-25 14:02:08 UTC

same here, failing silently

Comment 3 Steven Coutts 2014-11-19 16:19:35 UTC

And here we are over a year later, still same bug

Comment 4 Rolf Eike Beer 2015-03-04 21:51:26 UTC

Maybe this is related to bug 334985?

Comment 5 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 20:52:38 UTC

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kaddressbook (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Comment 6 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:43:18 UTC

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
