Thank You very much it works now!
Hi Iñaki,
I'm using Moodle 2.2.2+ and I want to use a CAS server to authenticate my users. How can I configure it if I don't want to use a LDAP server? I only need the data of the response of the CAS server, the XML file. Do you know if it's possible? And if don't, do you know any module that supports this behaviour?
Thanks a lot.
Iván
Hi again.
I had a problem with my server. I tried the same in a local installation and it works. I configured CAS without LDAP simply filling the CAS configuration fields and not the LDAP ones. But I have a new problem.
- CAS server sends me an HTML with an XML embedded and the error I get is the next:
Warning: DOMDocument::loadXML(): Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0xF1 0x65 0x63 0x65 in Entity, line: 3 in /var/www/moodletest/auth/cas/CAS/CAS/domxml-php4-to-php5.php on line 72
You were not authenticated.
You may submit your request again by clicking here.
If the problem persists, you may contact the administrator of this site.
- The header of the response is this:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2012 12:39:24 GMT
Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Language: gl
Vary: Accept-Encoding
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Length: 306
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=99
Connection: Keep-Alive
- The HTML is:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<cas:serviceresponse xmlns:cas="http://www.yale.edu/tp/cas">
<cas:authenticationsuccess>
<cas:user>XXXXXX@XXX.XX</cas:user>
<cas:attributes>
<cas:employeetype>EXT</cas:employeetype>
<cas:userprincipalname>XXXXXX@XXX.XX</cas:userprincipalname>
<cas:sn>XXXXXX XXXXX</cas:sn>
<cas:employeeid>XXXXXXXXX</cas:employeeid>
<cas:cn>XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX</cas:cn>
<cas:givenname>XXXXX</cas:givenname>
<cas:tipoautenticacion>Formulario</cas:tipoautenticacion>
</cas:attributes>
</cas:authenticationsuccess>
</cas:serviceresponse>
</body>
</html>
Is this a normal response of the CAS server? Or the module is not prepared for this case?
Thanks.
Iván.
Hi,
I solved the encoding error changing a function in domxml-php4-to-php5.php. I added this:
$str=utf8_encode($str);
in "function domxml_open_mem($str,$mode=DOMXML_LOAD_PARSING,&$error=null)" before the sentence:
if (!$dom->myDOMNode->loadXML($str)) $dom=null;
So this way I encode the XML to utf-8. It works for me.
But now I have another question. I want to map an attribute of the CAS response to the "idnumber" attribute of the user I am connecting with. I had a look to the code but, I did not get the solution yet.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
