So far I have been unable to get LDAP authentication with A/D working.

I was wondering how many people have mojoPortal with LDAP using A/D working, and if there were any idiosyncracies I should consider.

I am sure my settings are correct because I have tried them with a couple other LDAP clients.  Using the proper hostname, which is resolvable, would not work at all.  But when I changed the hostname to the IP address of the A/D LDAP server, mojoPortal verified the password OK, and made all the proper changes.  However, I could not login with my (or any other) LDAP UserId and Password.

I am using 2.2.7.9 with SQLite.

Thanks for any help.

Joe...

Thanks so much for the quick reply, and for mojoPortal.

The problem I am struggling with is that the LDAP authentication works fine when I initially set it up.  No error messages.  And it looks like it makes all the proper settings, and ghosts out the settings it should.  It all appears to work fine when I set it up, so it looks like all my settings are correct.  But I cannot login with LDAP.  Would it be possible to get a "Test LDAP connection" ASP page that mimics the LDAP login?

Or maybe if you could post the LDAP leaf and container objects that the LDAP login is querying, and I could see if I can trace down what might be happening?  Or maybe just point me to the code.  I am not an ASP programmer, but I can figure it out if I know what file to look at.

Thanks again!

Hi Joe,

Ive been troubleshooting this issue however, after following all the steps provided on the website and in the forums. I Am still experiencing  a bottleneck......After I enter my password and click save I am greeted by the "Object reference not set to an instance of an Object" exception.

This exception is followed by the stack trace below.

Is there any assistance that you can provide for me re: this issue.
 

Hi Joe,

I followed all the steps you mentioned, however I am still greeted by the error page. Is there any information in the stack trace I provided that can help me in diagnosing my problem?
