== Addendum of a20141106.2 == * Case Number: a20141106.2 * Claimants: Marcus M, Benny B * Respondents: CAcert * Complaint: Dispute to analyse strange behaviour on domain dispute * Ticket Number: [[Ticket:334592|s20141106.37]], reference: [[s20141102.58]] <> === Introduction === A fair amount of research and testing went into this case. It was decided that to gather the test scenario's and findings into an addendum would be much more appropriate and practical than 'polluting' the case log with them. === Bug Tracker === Bug Tracker currently reports 4 bugs as being related to strange behavior in both automated email and domain disputes, 3 of which are actually related and 1 of which is unrelated: * [[https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1310|Bug Tracker: ID 1310: The check about email during email dispute works incorrect]] *[[https://github.com/INOPIAE/CAcert/commit/3a5f13b14f21ce3e0ff8107c31c563a9de8c3fb0|fix made availabe by Marcus]] * [[https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1311|Bug Tracker: ID 1311: The check about email during email dispute works incorrect]] * [[https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1384|Bug Tracker: ID 1384: Problems to add a domain to an account that was assigned prior to a deleted account]] *[[https://github.com/INOPIAE/CAcert/commit/c3db1edee7bfa02b84b916120f61a4b02cfa87d9|fix made availabe by Marcus]] * [[https://bugs.cacert.org/view.php?id=1415|Bug Tracker: ID 1415: treat deleted emails like free emails in email disputes functionality]] The fixes for Bug 1310 and Bug 1384 have both been submitted in 2014. The fix submitted for Bug 1310 is the more complete of the two and addresses both the email dispute and domain dispute issue. The fix for Bug 1384 despite its Bug description only addresses the email dispute issue. The fix for Bug 1310 made it to the testerver-stable branch in 2014. It is still pending a final review and has never been merged into the release branche. Bug 1415 was submitted recently and is a duplicate of Bug 1310/Bug 1384. Bug 1311 when reviewing the steps-to-reproduce appears to be entirely unrelated to the reported strange behavior and points to the ''Heartbleed'' issue instead. Bug 1311 probably had its summary description cloned from Bug 1310 and probably was never updated afterwards. === Test Scenarios === The test scenario's are all based on 3 test accounts that, unless noted otherwise, are assumed to be have a pristine history at the start of each test. The following test scenario's have been run against the test database (testserver-stable): 1. Disputing a deleted domain in a locked account 2. Disputing a non-deleted domain in a locked account 3. Disputing a deleted secondary email in a locked account 4. Disputing a non-deleted secondary email in a locked account 5. Attempt to link a specific domain to 2 accounts The tests show that non-deleted domains and emails in locked accounts behave consistently across production (i.e. the release git branche) and test (the testserver-stable git branche). There is a minor difference however in how both branches handle deleted domains and deleted emails in locked accounts. Step 1.8 in Test 1 describes a situation that ultimately caused Claimaints to report the strange behavior. Test 5 was added to explicitly verify whether 'playing around' with adding domains might result in domains being linked to more than 1 user. No evidence has been found that that is possible. ==== 1.

Performing step 1.06 uses the dialogues as intended and doesn't generate those alerts. The situation described in step 1.08 however (where a locked account links to the deleted instance of a domain and an active account locks to the active instance of that domain) in production currently can only be resolved by testacc02 actively deleting the domain and testacc03 subsequently adding it. Otherwise the dispute dialogue will exit on finding the locked account links to the deleted instance of the domain. ==== 2.
