When LDAP accounts are set up, they should not require an internal Mahara password as it will be ignored since LDAP is going to be used. Report: My environment: Mahara 18.10 mobile app 1.4.1 1. Authentication plugin The institution has LDAP authentication plugin and Internal auth. 2. Add user from a user is added by admin from "Adimn menu" -> Users -> Add user The password can be anythin here, because users use LDAP password on login time. 3. Login Though the new user can login from Web interface, hi can not login by mobile app. At this time, I found server logs below. ---- AH01071: Got error 'PHP message: [WAR] 38 (snip) WebserviceException->__construct("passwordchangerequired", "The user needs to reset their password. They must ...", 403) at /path/to/mahara/module/mobileapi/json/token.php:121\nPHP message: \nPHP message: [WAR] 38 (module/mobileapi/json/token.php:118) passwordchangerequired : The user needs to reset their password. They must log in to the site through a web browser to do this.\nPHP message: Call stack (most recent first):\nPHP message: * log_message("passwordchangerequired : (snip) ---- Though the mobile app does not show error messeges, Mahara server seems to be requesting user to change password. 3. change password By admin, change authentication plugin from LDAP to Internal, and change password once. the password can be anythin. The password has to be change once. Then return authentication plugin from Internal to LDAP. 4. Login from mobile app We can login from mobile app. 5. Othre solution Admin can add user by CSV "Adimn menu" -> Users -> "Add user by CSV". At that time, Turn off the option "Force password change" option. Then users do not be required to chage password at first login, so mobile app can login.
