Which LDAP authenticator are you using ?
LDAPAuthServiceImpl or
XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl ? Since XWiki 1.6 XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl is
the default LDAP authenticator and have some differences in
configurations.
I'm a bit confused. When I used 1.1-m1, there was only the old
implementation (LDAPAuthServiceImpl?). When I got 1.6, the xwiki.cfg
contained this by default:
#-# new LDAP authentication service
#xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl
That is the new implementation, as I understand it, but it was commented
out. So, I assumed it was using the old one by default. Is this not the
case?
Regardless, I'd like to use the new one. So, in light of that, I've
uncommented that line now so that I am using XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl.
By the way there is a bug in LDAP 1.6. It's
already fixed and it will
be included in 1.6.1. In the meantime you can use last snapshot of
xwiki-core jar (download it at
http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/xwiki-core/1.6-SNAP…)
or use the old authenticator (which is the one you
used before I think
as the new LDAP authenticator only exists since XWiki 1.3).
What is the bug? I searched JIRA breifly, but nothign jumped out at me.
