Bug #4855
closed
GroupManager stops working with LDAP after (something?), /usr/sbin/pw exiting w/error
0%
Description
I'm not sure I can reproduce this issue, but the system is still up.
I'd renamed / created/ removed / created some groups, hitting the max 16 char limit. (Fun, with LDAP). Then I noticed my users weren't showing up in the expected groups (any groups) on test.
php-fpm[59177]: /system_groupmanager.php: The command '/usr/sbin/pw groupmod pfSense Admins -g 2002 -M '' 2>&1' returned exit code '1', the output was 'pw: entry inconsistent pw: gr_copy(): Invalid argument'
pfSense 2.2.3, 64 bit (as tagged).
I'm fairly unix-and-friends saavy; I can SSH in and provide extra info if desired. (But this is a production machine; I can clone its live state, though, it's a VMWare VM).

OK, so this would seem to be caused by the space in groupname - that appears to be handled by input validation now [1] and is only allowed for remote groups which are not put to /etc/group. Can be closed.

P.S. Changing anything here requires a reboot to take effect. (No comment.) - https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/7013

That does appear to be what it was. If it can still be reproduced somehow on 2.4 we can dig in more.
