Are you sure you can connect to your LDAP using your credentials?
I suggest to install some ldap client on your xwiki machine (e.g.
ldap-utils) and try to connect to LDAP with entered in xwiki.cfg values.
Taking your config try something like that:
authentication.ldap=1
authentication.ldap.server=blr-ec-dc01.wipro.com
authentication.ldap.port=389
authentication.ldap.check_level=1
authentication.ldap.base_DN=dc=wipro,dc=com
authentication.ldap.bind_DN=uid=wipro\<< my user
id>>,ou=USERS,dc=wipro,dc=com
authentication.ldap.bind_pass=<<my password>>
authentication.ldap.UID_attr=Mrudula Madiraju
authentication.ldap.fields_mapping=name=Mrudula
Madiraju,last_name=sn,first_name=givenName,fullname=displayName,mail=mail,ldap_dn=dn
ldapsearch -h blr-ec-dc01.wipro.com -p 389 \
-D 'uid=wipro\<< my user id>>,ou=USERS,dc=wipro,dc=com'
-b 'dc=wipro,dc=com' \
-x -W \
'(<UID_attr>=<xwiki loginname>)'
As you can see I've used in search filter '<UID_attr>', becaues I
suppose that you don't have a field named 'Mrudula Madiraju' in you
LDAP ;-). If your ldap was Active Directory you would have
authentication.ldap.UID_attr=sAMAccountName
in xwiki.cfg, and search field
(sAMAccountName=<xwiki_loginname>)
in your ldapsearch test.
