Summary

0001744: Unable to add new rule to existing authentication source via the GUI

Description

After adding a new rule to an existing authentication source, the new rule is apparently not saved. Add the new rule and then go back into the authentication source. Rule is not there.

This occurs whether you save just the new rule, or if you also save the authentication source itself.

I am unable to find any errors in the logs indicating a problem. On the contrary, I see this :

Oct 30 15:56:12 httpd.admin(0) DEBUG: Database statements not prepared, preparing... (pf::db::db_query_execute)
Oct 30 15:56:12 httpd.admin(0) DEBUG: Preparing pf::nodecategory database queries (pf::nodecategory::nodecategory_db_prepare)

Oct 30 15:56:12 httpd.admin(0) DEBUG: Writing source file1 (pf::Authentication::Source::HtpasswdSource) (pf::authentication::writeAuthenticationConfigFile)

Which seems to indicate that the write succeeded. In this example. I'm specifically making changes to the set_role source.

Steps To Reproduce

1) Go to configuration->sources
2) Choose an existing authentication source
3) Click the "Add Rule" button
4) Enter the details for the new rule
5) Click Save

Notes
(0003470) Xen0Phage (reporter) 2013-10-31 12:39	Louis suggested restarting memcached. Restarting that appears to have resolved this problem for the time being. I'm able to add/remove rules now.

(0003471) erSitzt (reporter) 2013-11-01 10:50	Same here, restarting memcached resolved the problem temporarily.
