Special path sequences (%a1, etc) not working - 2005/08/22 23:59 I've read the docs and pop up help info to try and figure out this problem to no avail.

Our user home directories live in singel letter subdirectories so userid abc would have a home dir of aabc

OK - So according to the docs, I just need to put %a1 in the path field to auto gen the right home directory. But every time I do that I get:

Error in path string: -1

I even tried:

%strstr(cn,1)

Got Error in patch string: -7

I'm doing what the docs say but this absolutely won't work. I may have to create a 2000 line csv file just to do the paths right.

What am I missing?

Re:Special path sequences (%a1, etc) not working - 2005/08/23 00:18 Weird

%a1, %a2, etc
%substr
%strstr
%endstr

All result in errors

%value works fine

??????

I'm totally confused. I was able to pull all sorts of attribute values in with %value, but none of the others work.

Strange

Re:Special path sequences (%a1, etc) not working - 2005/08/23 02:00 I tried Homes 3.04.02 and %a1 worked fine. So it seems the path extra string functions are borken badly in 3.04.05 MassUser

Re:Special path sequences (%a1, etc) not working - 2005/09/02 09:55 Found the problem fixed it in v3.04.06

%a1 does work again

The syntacx for %strstr is %strstr(attribute,start,length) so %strstr(cn,1,1) is equivalent to %a1.

You can also use %leftstr(cn,1).

You can't combine %a1..%a5 within the other functions.
