'Session' object has no attribute '_model_changes'

Hi,

I’ve created a second privacyidea system based on the ubuntu 16.04 LTS
packages. (First one is running using ubuntu 14.04 LTS).

Everything seems to be fine. I can log in using the administrative account,
configure realms and resolvers and so on. Like in the other system
mentioned above, I’ve created an editable SQL Resolver using a new MySQL
database table.

Trying to add a new user using this resolver fails with an error message:
‘Session’ object has no attribute ‘_model_changes’ … logs at this time
contains:

Hello Stephan,

in this line, the error occurs:

File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-
packages/privacyidea/lib/resolvers/SQLIdResolver.py”, line 709, in add

Even when creating a user the code should run the loadConfig method -
otherwise it would not know the user database.
And then it should set the _model_changes.

fdfdda01867d7856f/privacyidea/lib/resolvers/SQLIdResolver.py#L590

Well, you could try a quick hack and add the line

self.session._model_changes = {}

In the method add_user before line 709 - before the commit fails.

fdfdda01867d7856f/privacyidea/lib/resolvers/SQLIdResolver.py#L709

In the long run there is one difference:

14.04 and 16.04 which come with a different sqlalchemy stack.

So you fail on 16.04. Can you please tell which sqlalchemy drivers you
are using for the token database and the user database.
The best would be to provider the anonymized SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI
and the anonymized config of the sqlresolver.

Kind regards

Hello Cornelius,

Hi Stephan,

which database are you running?

MySQL (5.7 included with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS).

In which database are your users located? In the same as the token
database? (I have no real/good experiences with that).

It’s the same MySQL Instance but different databases and different
users. Each having only access rights to it’s own database schema.

I’ve used a similar setup with the previous version.

Which webserver did you use to run privacyIDEA. Apache2 or Nginx.

Nginx.

Look at the processes/sessions.

In the log file the second column
[2016-12-05 13:38:53,336][2139]
is the threadID 2139.
You may check, if this is a rather new thread id of if the thread
was used earlier.

Thread seems to be in use only for the same database.

Hi Stephan,

I am getting other session issues with Apache. Have not tried with
nginx, yet.

If you like to, you can check a development version of privacyIDEA.
The sqlresolver has not changed, but the sql audit module has.
The SQLAudit module might interfere with the resolver…
If you are ok with that, you can install privacyidea 2.17dev2 from

ppa:privacyidea/privacyidea-dev
(waiting to be built)

and see, if the problem still remains.

Kind regards

Hi Stephan,

as far as the driver is concerned I am using mysql and sometimes
pymysql.
E.g. pymysql is a pure python implementation. When installing in a pip
environment you can avoid having gcc and libmysql-dev around, which you
would be needed when installing the mysql driver via pip.

You said

Doesn’t help. Still fails when trying to add a new server.

I guess you mean when you try to add a user?

Kind regards

Hello Cornelius,

Hi Stephan,

which database are you running?

MySQL (5.7 included with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS).

In which database are your users located? In the same as the token
database? (I have no real/good experiences with that).

It’s the same MySQL Instance but different databases and different users.
Each having only access rights to it’s own database schema.

I’ve used a similar setup with the previous version.

Which webserver did you use to run privacyIDEA. Apache2 or Nginx.

Nginx.

Look at the processes/sessions.

In the log file the second column
[2016-12-05 13:38:53,336][2139]
is the threadID 2139.
You may check, if this is a rather new thread id of if the thread was used
earlier.

Thread seems to be in use only for the same database.
