> Extended operation causes client to hang
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIREVE-256
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIREVE-256
> Project: Directory Server
> Type: Bug
> Components: protocol
> Versions: 0.9.3, 0.9.2
> Reporter: Stefan Zoerner
> Assignee: Alex Karasulu
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: UnknownExtendedOperationTest.java, patch_DIREVE-256.txt
>
> If a client calls an arbitrary extended operation, the server (namely the ExtendedHandler) throws a NotImplementedException. After this, the call of the client blocks, and the client hangs.
> I suggest to change the handler to simply send an error code 2 (LDAP_PROTOCOL_ERROR) with message "Unrecognized extended operation" back to the client. This is the expected behavior if an extended operation is not supported by the server.
> Attached you find a test case, which demands an always unknown extended operation (OID=1.1) and checks the result. Error code 2 leads to a CommunicationException in JNDI. I have tested this with several LDAP server implementations, behavior was always a

s expected.
> I have also attached a patch, which changes the ExtendedHandler to behave like described above. Not a big thing, but it leads to compliant behavior for extended ops, even if we do not have any in place yet.
