Seems to be some AppServerTrustedAuthServiceImpl specfic thing. When
looking at the code it looks like by default it does not even create
the user at all, just set it as context user. As far as I can see in
the code to actually create the user (and then for it to be
automatically added to the default group(s)) this authenticator seems
to expect the undocumented xwiki.authentication.createuser parameter
in xwiki.cfg to be set to "empty" as in
xwiki.authentication.createuser=empty

So its not working for me.
I've made sure the external user has the XWiki.XWikiAllGroup role and its
still not working. The user does not get the necessary rights and I get the
"Error. You are not allowed to view this document or perform this action"
error message.
Also, that user is not added to the XWiki users.
Are there any example sof how to get this working?

So it looks like the AppServerTrustedAuthServiceImpl class is calling
createUser():
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/dd5152e8ff39e6358c20becb4c9925…
But that should mean that my externally authenticated user should be
being
added and should get the XWiki.XWikiAllGroup.
But that doesn't seem to be happening in my case as I'm being although
I'm
authenticated I'm denied access.
It's easy to check in the administration who is part of XWikiAllGroup.
Have I misunderstood the situation?

Note that an authenticator is supposed to use
com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki#createUser API which automatically add the user in
the minimum groups.
