Adam, Since PLA only asks for authentication creditials once (from a user), it needs to be able to "cache/store" them for subsequent queries (or know where to get them). setLogin() will store the details, so when they are needed again getLogin() will return them. When auth_type is 'cookie', these details are stored in a cookie, when 'session', its stored in a session, etc...
Normally getLogin() and getPassword() will return the stored DN and password, so that PLA can "re-authenticate" to the LDAP server for subsequent queries (on a subsequent get/post request). (Even when users login with an attribute value (eg: email), PLA will query the LDAP server first to get the DN, and remember that DN, if the password is valid). Now, you should be able to do all your logic in startSASL(), since it should be called again for a get/post. You should also make sure that the logic in connect() gets to the startSASL() call to enable the ldap_connect() to occur (and the subsequent ldap_sasl_bind()). You might be failing at the test of $bind['id'] (in connect() line 146) - ie: its NULL - try making it '' to get you through that part. If you can give me some pointers on how to setup a SASL environment for a RHEL/CentOS environment (and its quick for me to do), i'll be able to have a look at the work you've done. ...deon On 18/06/11 02:41, Adam Allred wrote: > But, any subsequent action that requires another LDAP query causes an > infinite redirect, and the debug output indicates that the > successfully bound connection is not located in the cache, and it > tries to build a new connection with an invalid DN of 'user'. > > It seems like the application has a dependence on a bind_dn existing, > and if it doesn't then it starts to behave erratically.
