SID-00457: Twiki 4.3 LDAP login ok but WikiName not created.

Status:	Unanswered	TWiki version:	4.3.1	Perl version:	5.008008
Category:	LdapContrib	Server OS:	z/Linux SLES 10 kernel 2.6.16	Last update:	2 years ago

I downloaded Twiki 4.3 and the LdapContrib. I can authenticate against the AD directory but the wikiname is not formed and the user shows as the Login Id in Twiki.

For example I login sd TSD001 and the Twiki left panel on the left shows Helo TSD001 when I was expecting Hello JohnMaski which is the wikiname.

Twiki relevant parms:

$TWiki::cfg{LoginManager} = 'TWiki::LoginManager::TemplateLogin'; $TWiki::cfg{UserMappingManager} = 'TWiki::Users::LdapUserMapping'; $TWiki::cfg{Register}{EnableNewUserRegistration} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{PasswordManager} = 'TWiki::Users::LdapPassword'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{LoginFilter} = 'objectClass=*'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{LoginAttribute} = 'sAMAccountName'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{WikiNameAttribute} = 'givenName,sn'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{NormalizeWikiNames} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{NormalizeLoginNames} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{SecondaryPasswordManager} = 'TWiki::Users::HtPasswdUser'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MemberAttribute} = 'memberUid'; $TWiki::cfg{Ldap}{MemberIndirection} = 1; $TWiki::cfg{Register}{AllowLoginName} = 1;

Part of LdapContrib debug info: - LdapContrib - called getWikiNameOfLogin(tsd001) - LdapContrib - called isGroup(tsd001) - LdapContrib - called getWikiNameOfLogin() - LdapContrib - called getWikiNameOfLogin(tsd001)

AD Directory entries:

cn: Joe Maski sn: Maski givenName: John distinguishedName: CN=Joe Maski,OU=TechSupp-MainFrame_F7,OU=Restricted Users,OU=company Users,DC=company,DC=local displayName: Joe Maski mailNickname: tsd001 name: Joe Maski sAMAccountName: tsd001 objectCategory: CN=Person,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=company,DC=local mail: tsd001@companyPLEASENOSPAM.local
