Hi
> We have been using moodle for several years now and everything was working as it should with adding new users.
Go through your LDAP settings (Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > LDAP
server) comparing them to the documentation
https://docs.moodle.org/en/LDAP_authentication.
> However, now I am having an issue creating new users using LDAP Authentication against our Active Directory. I am seeing the error:
>
> Could not find user 'CN=*USER,OU=STUDENTS,OU=BUILDING,DC=DOMAIN,DC=INTERNAL'
Did you try to annonymize the error message or is it literally that? Where does this message appear: as the user tries to login or when an sync script is run in the back end? Is the CN the user who is trying to log in or is it the bind user?
What has changed between then and now: A Moodle upgrade? The AD admins tuned something?
> However, if I manually add the student myself and select LDAP authentication, everything syncs and works just fine.
What to you mean by "sync": The user can login with the password in the AD? Inspect the table 'user' in the Moodle
database, especially comparing the records with auth='ldap' and to auth='manual'.
BTW, what is the User attribute (auth_ldap | user_attribute) in the LDAP configuration?
