I found what is the problem: It's not your configuration, by default XWiki store the DN in the user's profile (with the "ldap_dn=dn" in xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping property) to speed up the DN search. The problem is that it will always use the first DN used for a user even the user moved in LDAP server.
So what you can do to fix it:
- for existing users in XWiki: edit the user's profile page using object editor and change the value of the property ldap_dn (LDAP DN). Set the new DN or just blank it to let XWiki update it. - if you plan to move LDAP users regularely: remove the "ldap_dn=dn" from xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping property to avoid LDAP user DN storage.
This looks like an important XWiki limitation isn't it?
I guess moving users in LDAP is a pretty common thing and we should probably not request admins to edit related XWiki users objects. That doesn't sound right.
It's not a limitation, just configuration. As I said, If you don't have "ldap_dn=dn" in xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping the DN is never stored so you don't have the problem. But maybe the default value of wiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping has to be changed.
WDYT?
