[Xerte] Undefined variable: session_id

[Dan Attwood]

I've tried as you suggested but I'm still getting the same issues.

clicking on users and I just get a blank page.

I hoped to be able to bodge it by inserting users directly in the database
but there is no password field

I've also tried the LDAP route but i'm stuggling with that as well. do you
know if there is a write up installing with LDAP anywhere.
