Problems configuring Archiva LDAP integration

[Ben Keppler <be...@q-matic.com>]

To whom it may concern:

I am attempting to get archiva working with ldap.  My configuration files are
attached.
 <<security.properties>>  <<application.xml>> 
I have worked through problems getting the base.dn and bind.dn and now seem
to be connected to LDAP.  The only problem is that when I boot up and attempt
to connect to Archiva, it always redirects me to the "Create Admin User"
page.  There it lists the correct Username as specified by the
redback.default.admin property.  However, there is nothing in the "Full Name"
and "Email Address" fields and the fields are not editable.  That is, it
appears to be only listing the information rather than allowing an edit of
the information.  If I hit the "Create Admin" button, it complains that "Full
Name is required." and "Email Address is required."  but still gives you no
option to edit them and clearly isn't picking them up out of the appropriate
LDAP attributes.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Hi,

Couple of things you could check

- Make sure the admin id you specify existing in the LDAP registry
- Make sure the LDAP attribute mapping are correct (i.e 
ldap.config.mapper.attribute.* properties specified in the 
security.properties). Especially make sure 
ldap.config.mapper.attribute.user.id property is mapped to the LDAP key 
attribute. Also make sure the value of this key attribute is specified as 
the admin id. 

BTW, I couldn't find your securities.properties attached in the message.
