[Solved] LDAP works, but don't

[etcho]

Hello there.

I'm trying to configure LDAP authentication on my faq. After editing the ldap config file, I am able to know that it works, but I don't pass through authentication.

Explaining, I have an account on my LDAP server and another account on the faq with the same username. If I try enter with my username and my faq password, it works. If I enter a wrong password (different of my ldap's and faq's password), I got a wrong username or password message. But if I enter the username and the correct LDAP password, I got a 500 error code, with the chrome's default error screen. When testing with prefix (server\user), same thing happens.

I assume that the LDAP authentication is working, because I only get an error when I enter the right LDAP credentials, so the application is able to check if my password is correct or not, showing the right message for wrong password when needed.

Any ideas?

Hi,

could you please enable the debug mode in src/Bootstrap.php and try it again?

I'm currently on 3.1.0-beta, but it had the same behavior before I installed the beta version.
