I went to do my usual process. Clone our org’s existing XWiki Prod server, do an upgrade, verify things work, then if it’s good upgrade Production.
I am going from 15.10.13 to 16.10.5
In testing LDAP login, that doesn’t work. It’s acting like it doesn’t even know to try to use LDAP.
I think I checked everything multiple times and things should be good config-wise. For the LDAP Authenticator extension, it shows as there. I did uninstall and reinstall it twice. I can click into it and it has all the settings and such.
But when I wanted to turn up logging, in the 16.10 environment there is nothing under logging when I search for ldap. Versus on the 15.10 Prod box, there are multiple ldap results in a search but the one I care about is org.xwiki.contrib.ldap. Either way, none of the ldap stuff under Logging in Prod is there in the 16.10 environment.
Maybe that’s the problem? LDAP isn’t really there? Or only half there enough that the extension page exists but not the necessary stuff behind it?
Ok, well quick note before I go looking further. I looked in Extensions > Updater and there was an update from 9.15.6 to 9.15.7. Though why that wasn’t installed on one of the two times I did an uninstall / reinstall I dunno.
LDAP still doesn’t work but now I can at least see it in the Logging options and turn logging up. Hopefully I find a clue in that
