RE: Liferay 6.2 GA6 - LDAP userPassword Attribute not working

Hi folks!

I've been struggling with this issue for several days now. We have a MS AD up and running (LDAP) which I used as a source for liferay 6.2. I configured everything according to the few available guides out there and it seems to work EXCEPT for when I try and "test users" - the "password" filed is missing and without the users wont import from the AD to liferay.

I saw some posts regarding that if you have CAS enabled that it might not work, but this is not the case for me. Everything "optional" is off and I kept everything as basic as possible. Where is my mistake?

See the attached screenshots for more info and thanks in advance!!





 Right at the bottom of the last screenshot there is a warning which says that if the field "password" remains empty, liferay wont be able to import the users from the AD which seems legit, but I have no idea how to get the PW. Any suggestions? PLEASE!

Hi Igor,

I vaguely remember from long years ago that I am also struggled with this. As I remember it worked to me only when I configured NTLM also beside the LDAP. Have you tried that already?
