Problem: LDAP connection between Wordpress not working

UCS - Univention Corporate Server
,
#1

Hello!

I’ve got a problem with the LDAP connection between Wordpress and my LDAP base on UCS. I installed wordpress over the Univention Back End and copied it to a subfolder withing /var/www. The website reachable on www.schuelerinnenbuero.de is working fine. Then I realized that creating new users with any of the groups like Domain Admins,wordpress-editors,wordpress-authorswordpress-contributors,wordpress-subscribers have no effect on the wordpress wp-admin user registry. So obviously the LDAP connection doesn’t work as is is supposed to be.

My LDAP URI looks like:
ldap://cn=wordp-02639370,cn=memberserver,cn=computers,dc=schuelerinnenbuero,dc=intranet:[password]@ucs-5062.schuelerinnenbuero.intranet:7389/dc=schuelerinnenbuero,dc=intranet

I am also using nextcloud and kopano and the LDAP synchronisation works fine.

I honestly don’t now how to debug it properly so don’t blame me for not providing Logs.

Looking forward to your help! :slight_smile:

EDIT

I activated LdapDebugging on Wordpress and got following log within the wordpress folder

Ok at least it was no problem. I just had to log in to my wordpress site with new created accounts and then the LDAP Object gets authorized and is shown in wordpress.
