LDAP-authentification doesn't work in 1.7...

When I'm trying to use LDAP-authentification with moodle 1.7, I get:

"This SQL relies on obsolete tables! Your code must be fixed by a developer."

after trying to log in an LDAP-User. Is this a tribute to beta-status and is it going to be fixed? LDAP is great...

regards,

Maik

patch is already in CVS. - LDAP works, just the course creator has an issue.

see MDL-6928

Thanks. After deleting course creators everything is fine again.

Hi Maik,

what do you mean with "after deleting course creators everything works fine"?

We are using LDAP authentification but course creators are not identified correctly. Looking at the LDAP Server log file does not give an error.

It seem's to me that the code at line 2385 - ... in moodlelib.php is still not correct.

The original code is:

if (function_exists('auth_iscreator')) {
$sitecontext = get_context_instance(CONTEXT_SYSTEM);
if ($creatorroles = get_roles_with_capability('moodle/legacy:coursecreator', CAP_ALLOW)) {
$creatorrole = array_shift($creatorroles); // We can only use one, let's use the first one
// Check if the user is a creator
if (auth_iscreator($username)) { // Following calls will not create duplicates
if ($useriscreator) {
role_assign($creatorrole->id, $user->id, 0, $sitecontext->id, 0, 0, 0, 'ldap');
} else {
role_unassign($creatorrole->id, $user->id, 0, $sitecontext->id);
}
}
}
}

However, the variable $useriscreator is not defined.

If I change the code to the following LDAP authentification and course creators work fine:

if (function_exists('auth_iscreator')) {
$sitecontext = get_context_instance(CONTEXT_SYSTEM);
if ($creatorroles = get_roles_with_capability('moodle/legacy:coursecreator', CAP_ALLOW)) {
$creatorrole = array_shift($creatorroles); // We can only use one, let's use the first one
// Check if the user is a creator
$useriscreator = auth_iscreator($username); // Following calls will not create duplicates
if ($useriscreator) {
role_assign($creatorrole->id, $user->id, 0, $sitecontext->id, 0, 0, 0, 'ldap');
} else {
role_unassign($creatorrole->id, $user->id, 0, $sitecontext->id);
}
}
}

Sorry, I don't get the code formatted in a better readable way sad
