Is it possible that the attribute is being set but is just not visible by the user admin portlet?

The field I am trying to add is called EmployeeNumber in ActiveDirectory. It is a field we are just now starting to use and is different than sAMAccountName or employeeId. I followed the instructions at the link provided, but when I go to manage users and look up a user, the new attribute still doesn't show. How do I enable the logs that you described? Are the attributes listed on the user admin screen after you look up a user managed elsewhere? Rebecca M.

Did you have an LDAP attribute source before? Are any attributes from LDAP showing up for users? The steps to follow are documented at https://wiki.jasig.org/display/UPM42/LDAP+User+Attribute+Sources. >From a quick glance I see the documentation page suggests the Active Directory >field name is sAMAccountName. I don't know if it is case sensitive but I see >you have something else. Also, it looks like you had removed the CascadingPersonAttributeDao. I suggest you retain the structure specified in the documentation; e.g. <property name="personAttributeDaos"> <list> <!-- Provides a single attribute (but only for the current logged in user): impersonating='true'|'false' --> <bean class="org.jasig.portal.persondir.ImpersonationStatusPersonAttributeDao" /> <bean class="org.jasig.services.persondir.support.CascadingPersonAttributeDao"> <property name="usernameAttributeProvider" ref="usernameAttributeProvider" /> <property name="personAttributeDaos"> <list> <ref bean="uPortalAccountUserSource" /> <ref bean="uPortalJdbcUserSource" /> </list> </property> </bean> <!-- ADDITIONAL ATTRIBUTE SOURCES GET ADDED HERE Don't add more sources to the CascadingPersonAttributeDao.personAttributeDaos list above unless you're adding "special" DAOs tasked with augmenting/transforming the attributes generated by uP-local DAOs. (CascadingPersonAttributeDao takes the results from the first-DAO, transforms them into a query, and passes that query to each subsequent DAO. I.e. subsequent DAOs in the cascade list will *not* be given a chance to process the original query. But they will if you add them directly to the MergingPersonAttributeDaoImpl.personAttributeDaos list here.) --> <!-- Add your LDAP Attribute source here. <ref bean="uPortalLdapAttributeSource"/> --> </list> </property> To troubleshoot you can try enabling debug logging for org.jasig.services.persondir.support.ldap and org.springframework.ldap to see if the LDAP query is succeeding and what is happening. I hope this helps. James Wennmacher - Unicon 480.558.2420 On 08/16/2015 03:14 PM, Fountain, Rebecca wrote: Hello all! I am trying to include a new LDAP attribute field for users.
