reconcile-lldap-resolver-live.sh had never completed a run. Four defects,
found by running it on 2026-08-27:
1. request() set Content-Type: application/json on every call, including
bodyless GETs. Werkzeug 3.x rejects those in front of privacyIDEA, so
every GET returned an HTML 400 while POSTs succeeded — the resolver
write landed and the lookup immediately after it did not.
bootstrap-realm.sh already fixed this in pi_api and said why; this
script was written later and did not inherit it.
2. GET /user/ returns result.value as a list of user objects, not a dict
carrying "users". With the 400 fixed, the lookup finally reached the
parse and raised AttributeError past the except clause, so the run
died as a traceback instead of a receipt. Both shapes now accepted,
and the except clause catches parse errors so a failed run still
names the phase it died in.
3. A resolver write replaces the whole object, so TIMEOUT,
CACHE_TIMEOUT and SIZELIMIT were dropped by every --apply. A resolver
with them unset still resolves users, but the WebUI refuses to save
or test it — so the script silently un-repaired a resolver an
operator had fixed by hand. Now sent, defaulting to the verified
5/120/500 and overridable per run. Same omission fixed in
bootstrap-realm.sh, which created the resolver that way originally.
4. The predecessor prompt could not be left empty, so an operator who
had lost the exposed credential had to type a placeholder — which
also fails the bind and was recorded as a PASSING denial proof.
--predecessor-unavailable skips the bind and records NOT-PROVEN.
--note carries operator context into the receipt line itself, so the
claim and its caveat travel together.
