LDAP error setting up secondary site

I am getting an error when trying to create folder based secondary sites using the Administration Menu - Site Settings and using LDAP Authentication.

I get "Could not bind to the LDAP settings as entered or could not bind your credentials in the LDAP directory." All LDAP settings and password used are the same as used setting up LDAP security on main site. Actually, these settings come over when trying to setup the new site, looks like I just have to put in the password but still doesn't take.

Any ideas?

Re: LDAP error setting up secondary site

I admit I have not tried LDAP in folder based multi sites. You might try enabling related sites mode since both will use the same ldap backend.

Update your Web.config or ideally put it in user.config

<add key="UseRelatedSiteMode" value="true" />

Then it uses the same users as the first site as well.

Hope it works for you,

Joe

Re: LDAP error setting up secondary site

I can make that work for the LDAP authentication. Thanks. Can you delete a folder based sub-site once you create one?

Re: LDAP error setting up secondary site

Yes, see the FAQ page item about it and how to enable deleting sites. Its disabled by default to protect you from mistakes.

Glad to know that solution works!

Best,

Joe
