Maria Odea Ching created MRM-1709:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Default redback admin does not work anymore when using
LDAP in the new UI
Key: MRM-1709
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1709
Project: Archiva
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Users/Security
Affects Versions: 1.4-M3
Reporter: Maria Odea Ching
Previously, the config @redback.default.admin@ in security.properties file is
used upon initial startup on a clean installation of Archiva with LDAP.
In the new UI, you'd be prompted to create an admin account even if the
property has been set to an existing LDAP user. But when you create an admin
account, it doesn't get persisted since it is configured to use LDAP so you
won't be able to do anything at all.
Workaround for this problem is to:
# Start Archiva without LDAP configured
# Create an admin account then create another account whose username exists in
LDAP (ex. oching) then assign that account with the System Admin role.
# Shutdown Archiva then configure it to use LDAP
# Start Archiva
# Login as the second user you created (in our case, as oching). You should be
able to do admin tasks.
