Issue/Introduction

when using the CLI PERL API available with policy Server to fetch GetAllAttributes() linked to responses , the below error is returned 

"failed with error -9. The interface now has an additional optional argument"

Example of used functions :

 

@domains=$session->GetAllDomains();

foreach $domain(@domains) {

   print DEST "\n\nDomain " . $domain->Name() . ":";

   @responses=$domain->GetAllResponses();

   foreach $response(@responses) {
        @attributes=$response->GetAllAttributes();

      print DEST "\n  Attributes " . $response->Name();

   }

}

 

 

Environment

Release : 12.8.x

Component : SITEMINDER -POLICY SERVER

Resolution

This is not an error, but just a warning message.

the PMAPI code prints the message and continues normally.

Here is what happens: In the domain 'ENT Sametime 8.5.2' there is an response 'AzReject' with no response attributes.

The search routine searching for ResponseAttributes returns status 'NotFound' if one of the Domains has a response with no Response Attributes  meaning there are zero attributes found.

 

There is also a DEV fix (Defect DE520207) available to eliminate this warning in case it was causing an issue in client scripts
