Hi Guys, Call me a twit, if I missed something, obvious ;-)
I installed a standalone 1.1.0 syncope distro - was very impressed. Started to link it up to my own ldap service (after downloading an ldap connector and installing it as described in the doc).
Made quick progress in learning some of the details of how to set-up ldap resources/connectors, got a bit stuck with how to get roles propagated through to the ldap server (doc is not on this, at least for opendj requirements). Followed the advice from this users group to follow my nose instead of asking questions too soon.
Noticed that there was a apache ldap resource example already. Used this as a comparison model (resource) to get IDM role propagation to my ldap server (resource/connector working - didn't succeed yet, but worked out that a syncope define IDM role gets propagated at the time of the "save" of a (new) user to your remote resource ldap, after you assign that role to the user (still have to work to do to work out what ldap attributes to set up in the connector and how to enable that the get propagated to the ldap to create a group of the same "name" as the role in the backend ou=groups,o=isp for example, cn=propagatednewrole,ou=groups,o=isp).
***So to cut this long story short*** I decided the restart my tomcat and whoosh all my resource and connector work was lost! I'm guessing 1) I have not done something right to save it or 2) this is a side effect of a demo distro that stores data in H2 ram memory without syncing it to some sort of persistent storage? Can you please help me with this as I'm re-doing all my work of the last 3 days now from scratch :-( and would not like to have it disappear if I clear my volatile memory.
rgds, Nik
