Marc-- it seems pretty clear to me that the issues are with your own
code rather than JSPWiki.
That said, it might be a good thing for us to have a LDAP UserDatabase
implementation, finally. Would you be willing to donate your code as a
starting point? If so, could you please create a new issue in JIRA?
Mark it as an enhancement.

Andrew,
I found the reason why UserPreferences and Login page do not load:
there are constantly findByUid calls (all with a different uid it
seems) fired to the UserDatabase.
This seems a bug to me ?
The getWikiNames() that returns an empty array is also a problem.

Andrew,
thanks for the quick reply. I forgot to mention that I could not
find that UPGRADING document,
it's not available in the binary distribution (I found it now in the
source distribution).
I have tried a few things but nothing has changed. getWikiNames()
indeed returns null because it will only return
a wiki name for someone who is logged in because we use this custom
LDAP implementation only for this (which is not required),
this was not a problem in 2.4 but it seems to me that has this
changed now ?
- What do you mean with "UserProfile custom properties ", is this
the Map with Attributes ? What are these attributes then ? (they
seem to be optional)
- "your user database implementation does not implement finding by
unique ID": it does (but it returns null, as I said we only use
findByLoginName)
- what is "Principal[] getWikiNames()" supposed to return ? All the
wikinames in the database (as it seems to be done in the other
Userdatabase implementations)?
A few settings in the properties file that are perhaps also usefull:
- jspwiki.cookieAssertions=true
- cookie authentication is off
jspwiki.authorizer =
com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.WebContainerAuthorizer (same as in
2.4)

Marc

Onderwerp: Antw.: JSPWiki 2.8 Authentication troubles
Antwoord aan: [email protected]
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
