Incorrect time limit unit
-------------------------

Key: DIRSERVER-623
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-623
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Type: Bug

Versions: 1.0-RC3
Reporter: Endi S. Dewata


The time limit in the search request is incorrectly treated as milliseconds.
 According to RFC 2251 the time limit should be in seconds. The following ex
ample is done using OpenLDAP's command line tool:

ldapsearch -h localhost -p 10389 -D uid=admin,ou=system -w secret -b "dc=exa
mple,dc=com" -l 100

The -l 100 parameter indicates that the time limit is set to 100 seconds. Ho
wever, the search operation stops in less than a second with error message "
Time limit exceeded". Some other LDAP client (e.g. Softerra) might specify a
 time limit by default, so
it will affect the results.

This could be the cause of the problem: in SearchHandler.java:82, the time l
imit is being passed directly from SearchRequest to SearchControls. Accordin
g to the documents in the code, the time limit in SearchRequest is in second
s, but the time limit in Se
archControls is in milliseconds, so it should have been multiplied by 1000.
