Marc - we changed the contract for UserDatabase slighttly. I thought
we documented the required changes in the UPGRADING document. However,
you can get the details from the UserDatabase javadoc.
That said, here's what the problem is likely to be:
- your user database implementation does not implement finding by
unique ID
- your UserDatabase implementation does not implement UserProfile
custom properties (a new 2.8 feature)
The empty array might also be the root cause... Let me know what you
find.

Hi,
we are currently running JSPWiki 2.4, with our own custom LDAP
login- and Userdatabase module, and we want to upgrade to 2.8.
However we have troubles with the new implemented Authorisation &
Authentication:
- navigating to the Login or Userpreferences page does not work, the
page gets not loaded, no error or warning is given, nothing to find
in the logs (even in debug mode) except for the following lines:
"INFO com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.UserManager - Attempting to load user
database class ... .LDAPUserDatabase
INFO com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.user.AbstractUserDatabase -
Initializing LDAP database ...
INFO com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.UserManager - UserDatabase initialized."
So it seems that our Userdatbase is initialized correctly.
- I tried to go to the Admin and SecurityConfig pages and these gave
me following errors:
* Admin page:
"An error occurred while getting property "wikiNames" from an
instance of class ... .LDAPUserDatabase.
Exception
javax.servlet.jsp.el.ELException
Place where detected
org.apache.commons.el.Logger.logError(), line 484"
* SecurityConfig:
"Error Message
An unknown exception java.lang.NullPointerException was caught by
Error.jsp.
Exception
java.lang.NullPointerException
Place where detected
com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.WikiPrincipal.hashCode(), line 145 "
Our implementation only returns a profile for "findByLoginName",
that was never a problem, and "getWikiNames" probably always returns
an empty array, maybe that is the problem ?

Marc Patteet
