[Pki-devel] ProfileSubsystem configuration with LDAPConnection

With the introduction of LDAP-based profiles, the ProfileSubsystem needs access to the profile configuration. When spawning a new instance, the CMS tries to start its subsystems, but the ProfileSubsystem cannot start because it requires the LDAP connection details, which are not yet configured (this action is performed by SystemConfigService.configureDatabase). OK, so what to do? I see two options: 1) Remove the profile subsystem from the initial CS.cfg, so that it doesn't start up. Add it back into CS.cfg as a configuration step; on the next startup, it will run and be happy, because the database configuration is there. 2) Handle the absense of database configuration in ProfileSubsystem itself. That is, keep track of whether initialisation has been successfully performed, and try again "just-in-time" when it is needed. This probably violates semantics of the IProfileSubsystem API. Feedback or other ideas are appreciated. I'm going to push ahead with option (1). Both options feel like hacks but (2) seems like a worse hack ^_^ Cheers, Fraser
