[Xerte] Re: LDAP [Scanned]

[Ron Mitchell]

I've also just replaced the current index.php with one from an older install
so now with old login_library and older index.php ldap is working and
including the first name and last name

as usual would be good to know if these issues have/are affecting anyone
else using the latest 1.6?

Hi Pat
I'm struggling to find the solution here but a few comments/thoughts...

1. What this does seem to verify is that there's nothing wrong with the LDAP
settings as it logs in fine using OLDlogin_library.php  apart from the first
name and last name issue. Also just to clarify that file is in the latest
zip download as well as the repository

2. Yes the part working login library just returns true whereas the latest
version returns return $result_array; 

3. get_user_details also seems completely different between the two versions

4. I don't really want to be using older files but I can't work out what
else to check/change in the latest files given that it doesn't seem to be an
ldap connection problem.

5. Is anyone else successfully using the latest 1.6 version of XOT with
LDAP?

Cheers
Ron

Errr I think I upgraded the flux capicitors and set the tardis to organic.

diff the files?

The first and last name come from another function called get user 
details which does the same thing with the LDAP as the login.

Maybe that was the difference - does your old valid login just return 
true / false?

I think new login returns an array?
