Thanks again.
So, as I understand it, the documentation on
https://apereo.github.io/cas/6.3.x/ is really not sufficient to install and
configure CAS and, in some cases, is misleading. Take for example,
enabling LDAP Authentication. Apereo's documented steps to enabling LDAP
are stated
here:
https://apereo.github.io/cas/6.3.x/installation/LDAP-Authentication.html.
However, this is very different than the step(s) you have given me.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apereo.cas</groupId>
<artifactId>cas-server-support-ldap</artifactId>
<version>${cas.version}</version>
</dependency>
is what I used in my 5.x pom.xml, which no longer appears to be used in
6.x. Is that right? So is this 5.x configuration under 6.x. documentation
that is no longer relevant?
Interestingly, I found the documentation under CAS 5.x to be completely
sufficient to install and configure a CAS instance and I am not sure what
happened under 6.x, which is why I am wondering if I am missing something
obvious.
Thank you, Ray, for your patience with my questions.
