Hi Alex,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I have already tried that, and it fails to pass in my configuration object = because as I stated earlier, the "DefaultContextPartitionNexus.a= ddContextPartition() creates a new MutableContextPartitionConfiguration&quo= t; rather than using the configuration that was instantiated based on the p= roperties file.

I have also tried altering one of the JUnit test cases and adding the configuration to a Hashtable and passing that to a JNDI context intitialization . . . no joy there either.

Here is the offending code, IMHO, which shows that the config that is passed in is not the one that is ultimately passed to 'partition.init()':
<snippet>
    public synchronized void addContextPartition( ContextPar= titionConfiguration config ) throws NamingException
    {
        ContextPartition partition =3D c= onfig.getContextPartition();

        // Turn on default indices
        MutableContextPartitionConfigura= tion mcfg =3D
            new Muta= bleContextPartitionConfiguration();
        mcfg.setName( config.getName() )= ;
        mcfg.setSuffix( config.getSuffix= () );
        mcfg.setContextEntry( config.get= ContextEntry() );
        mcfg.setContextPartition( partit= ion );

        Set indexedAttrs =3D config.getI= ndexedAttributes();
        indexedAttrs.add( Oid.ALIAS );         indexedAttrs.add( Oid.EXISTANCE = );
        indexedAttrs.add( Oid.HIERARCHY = );
        indexedAttrs.add( Oid.NDN );
        indexedAttrs.add( Oid.ONEALIAS )= ;
        indexedAttrs.add( Oid.SUBALIAS )= ;
        indexedAttrs.add( Oid.UPDN );         mcfg.setIndexedAttributes( index= edAttrs );

        String key =3D config.getSuffix(= );
        if( partitions.containsKey( key = ) )
        {
            throw new ConfigurationException( "Duplicate partition suffix: " = + key );
        }

        partition.init( factoryCfg, mcfg= );
        partitions.put( partition.getSuf= fix( true ).toString(), partition );

        Attribute namingContexts =3D roo= tDSE.get( NAMINGCTXS_ATTR );
        namingContexts.add( partition.ge= tSuffix( false ).toString() );
    }
</snippet>

Ok can you state your specific goal with= the custom partition so I have

Ok I see.

In the server.xml you can set the bean class for the configuration<= br>object's class to use your own configuration class.  Here's wh= ere you'd
make the change:

...

  <bean id=3D&= quot;examplePartitionConfiguration"
class=3D"org.apache.ldap.server.configu
ration.MutableDirectory= PartitionConfiguration">
    <property na= me=3D"name"><value>example</value></property>= ;
    <property name=3D"suffix"><= value>dc=3Dexample,dc=3Dcom</value></property>
    <property name=3D"indexedAttributes&quo= t;>
      <set>
  &n= bsp;     <value>dc</value>
&n= bsp;      <value>ou</value>
&n= bsp;       <value>objectClass</= value>
        <value>k= rb5PrincipalName</value>
        <value>uid</va= lue>
      </set>
  =   </property>
    <property name= =3D"contextEntry">
      <= value>
        objectClass: t= op
        objectClass: domain
        objectClass: extensible= Object
        dc: example
&n= bsp;     </value>
    = ;</property>
  </bean>

...

So if you= r configuration class is com.example.MyParititionConfig then it
would look like so:

...

  <bean id=3D"e= xamplePartitionConfiguration"
class=3D"com.example.MyPartition= Config">
    <property name=3D"name&= quot;><value>example</value></property>
    <property name=3D"suffix"><v= alue>dc=3Dexample,dc=3Dcom</value></property>
  = ;  <property name=3D"indexedAttributes">
= ;     <set>
     = ;   <value>dc</value>
        <value>ou</val= ue>
        <value>obje= ctClass</value>
        &l= t;value>krb5PrincipalName</value>
     = ;   <value>uid</value>
   &nbs= p;  </set>
    </property>
    <property name=3D"contextEntry">= ;
      <value>
   = ;     objectClass: top
    =     objectClass: domain
    &nbs= p;   objectClass: extensibleObject
   &nbs= p;    dc: example
     &nbs= p;</value>
    </property>
  </bean><= br>
...

Give that a try and let us know how it goes.

Cheer= s,
Alex
