Establishing a multi-instance wiki environment. We successfully setup the first 
wiki and now setup another one in the same environment and that is where we are 
having issues.

Expectation is that we setup an additional wiki site that can have users log in 
directly but that does not work - when you attempt to log in with a valid user 
ID it provides no error message it just prompts you to log in again.

We setup another wiki on our instance and we are unable to get any users to 
authenticate to the site. The workaround is to create users as a Global user 
and add them to the sub-wiki site's XWikiAllGroup.

The use case is to establish another Wiki that we can add outside partner's 
users to it and segregate them from the main wiki site.

The configuration we have for the sub-wiki is as follows:

* Any global user can request to join but an admin must accept


Main Wiki is setup for LDAP - the sub-wiki is NOT. 

xwiki.cfg
#-# The following line is used to enable LDAP. See the LDAP section for more 
detail.
xwiki.cfg:322        
xwiki.authentication.authclass=org.xwiki.contrib.ldap.XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl

LDAP
Enable or not LDAP authentication for this wiki. If enabled and configured 
properly, a local user will be created whenever a LDAP user visit this wiki for 
the first time.
Yes

TRY LOCAL LOGIN
If ldap authentication fails for any reason, try XWiki DB authentication with 
the same credentials. Default is yes
Yes

Question is - did we miss a configuration step to authenticate the users for 
the sub-wiki for basic authentication? What configuration files should we look 
at and what sections of those may have a clue for how this should be configured 
and function as expected?

Thanks
