Re: [xwiki-users] LDAP Authenticator working but "You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action."

Greets, I don’t get it. I moved my environment.permanentDirectory and got into a messed up state. I started over: I shut down tomcat I said "mysql drop database xwiki" and recreated it and re-granted app privs on xwiki.* I copy-n-pasted the LDAP settings from my previous installation, where LDAP auth was working I started tomcat, wenth thru the distribution wizard, and then installe LDAP Authenticator I stopped tomcat and restarted it Now I can log in with my AD account, but instead of the main page, I see ERROR You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action. I don't get it. I pasted the LDAP setting from a previous install, where LDAP seemed to be working fine. I tried another LDAP account and got the same results. What could I have done wrong? I think that this time the LDAP settings were there before the LDAP authenticator was installed, could that be it? Could it be that I need to open the perms on the permanent data dir? It is writable to the xwiki user, and that is who is executing tomcat.

I see this in the catalina log: 2017-04-26 12:29:26,103 [http://dwswiki10.westmarine.net:8080/xwiki/bin/loginsubmit/XWiki/XWikiLogin] ERROR o.x.c.l.XWikiLDAPConfig - Error parsing LDAP fields mapping attribute from configuration ... but as I said I didn't get the "You are not allowed..." bit last time around. And the LDAP settings were pasted from there.

I’d still recommend using the DW. Thanks -Vincent The information contained in this transmission may contain West Marine proprietary, confidential and/or privileged information.
