Sep 1, 2025September 2025: Key UI and stability work in 389-ds-base focusing on reliability, logging safety, and smoother server transitions. Key features delivered: tighter instance name validation and improved group management in 389-console, plus a safe JSON logging helper (json_add_str). Major bugs fixed: prevent deletion of referrals during online initialization on chain-on-update backends, route consumer replica warnings to stderr to avoid UI crashes, ignore deferred updates for LMDB at startup with a warning, and ensure UI reloads object classes and DB implementations when the server ID changes. Overall impact: reduced UI crashes and misconfigurations, more predictable startup behavior, and improved operational resilience, enabling faster troubleshooting and safer configuration changes. Technologies demonstrated: UI/UX improvements, robust logging utilities, LMDB-specific startup handling, centralized NULL checks, and change management across server transitions.
