Hi Thomas, thanx for this. I thought it would be about a real ldap problem, since it still didn''t work here with our AD. Now it is working, as I found out, I had to also change : xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN=benutzer\\{0} to xwiki.authentication.ldap.bind_DN=cn={0},ou=benutzer,dc=ruv,dc=de Cheers Sebastian On Fri, Jan 16, 2009 at 1:59 PM, Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi

there is a bug in debug log printing in 1.7 which is fixed in 1.7.1. So to fix this you can disable LDAP debug log or upgrade to 1.7.1 (which is always recommended).

Cheers and many thanx for suggestions in advance... Sebastian

PS: the users to be authenticated are all able to bind to the AD, so I figured the ldap configuration to be right so. Nethertheless this NullPointerException comes up. I'm using XWiki 1.7 war in Apache Tomcat 6.0.18 at the moment, as I think switching to Jboss later, once this whole stuff works shouldn't be too hard. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
