Hi Maarten, I'm dealing with the same problem right now. The GridICE EX GRIS (the one running on port 2136 of the node chosen as collector) is advertised in the SE GRIS by using a GlueServiceURI entry. The attributes that we publish are, e.g.: dn: GlueServiceURI=ldap://golias26.farm.particle.cz:2136,mds-vo-name=local,o=grid objectClass: GlueTop objectClass: GlueService objectClass: GlueSchemaVersion GlueServiceURI: ldap://golias26.farm.particle.cz:2136 GlueServiceAccessPointURL: ldap://golias26.farm.particle.cz:2136/mds-vo-name=local,o=grid GlueServiceType: gridice GlueSchemaVersionMajor: 1 GlueSchemaVersionMinor: 1 and they are generated by our info provider gridiceURI: http://infnforge.cnaf.infn.it/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/gridice/sensor/mds/gridiceURI?rev=1.2;content-type=text%2Fplain;cvsroot=gridice The new wrapper from LCG fills the missing attributes adding a GlueServiceInformationServiceURL with an empty value. As this is not allowed by the LDAP syntax associated to the attribute, the entry is not accepted by the BDII. I've just committed a new script that publish something for this attribute in order to avoid the empty default. We'll generate a new RPM of our gridice-sensor for LCG 2.4. I would anyway recommend that the wrapper should not add attributes to the LDIF output for which a value is missing.
