Thanks for the reply Thomas,
"If you use the correct LDAP authenticator
(xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl)
and even if you use the old one AFAIK there is no way to configure
LDAP in order to not create the user in XWiki, otherwise XWiki would
not be able to manager rights, groups etc."
This means no matter what if my LDAP Authentication is working then XWiki should be
storing users in its database.
My log file is clean. This is the only thing that I have in my log file
2008-06-27 10:26:31,761 [http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome] [btpool0-7]
INFO .AbstractXWikiMigrationManager - No storage migration required since current
version is [7351]
My users are authenticating without a problem. I mean I can confirm that its
authenticating against LDAP but I can't find any users.
xwiki-enterprise-web-1.4.1.war is the file that I downloaded. So I reckon the version is
1.4.1.
When the users log in they only see a page which says
"You are not allowed to view this document or perform this action."
When I log in as superadmin then I can create Wiki pages. Am I missing something here?
BTW where does XWiki stores user information, I searched all my database but wasn't
able to find any table which may store user information.
Thanks,
Avinash

Hello All,
I have installed XWiki in our environment using jetty and MS SQL Server.
I have successfully configured authentication using LDAP but I don't see any users
when I click on Users and Groups under Administration.
I guess this is because XWiki just uses LDAP to authenticate but doesn't stores the
users anywhere.
I checked on mailing lists and found that few discussions where people have suggested to
add following line in xwiki.cfg
xwiki.authentication.createuser=ldap
and XWiki will start storing users in his database.
Did you looked at
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication ?
All possible options are listed here (and I confirm that
xwiki.authentication.createuser=ldap does not mean anything or at
least now).
If you use the correct LDAP authenticator
(xwiki.authentication.authclass=com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl)
and even if you use the old one AFAIK there is no way to configure
LDAP in order to not create the user in XWiki, otherwise XWiki would
not be able to manager rights, groups etc. What XE/Platform version do
you use ? Do you have any error/warning in the log ?
But the above didn't work for me. I also found a
snippet which might import the users but don't know how to run it.
I am a .Net guy and I have very limited knowledge of java.
I would like to create groups of LDAP user and give different permissions to different
groups. How can I achieve this?
Thanks,
Avinash
