Ldap works when using cn but not with uid

Ok, here's the problem:If i set up my ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid=%s,ou=employee,o=company,c=country and enter th userid to login,the user is never found, but if I configure it to use th cn instead of uid, ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=cn=%s,ou=employee,o=company,c=countryand log in

Hi

Simple bind can only use the full DN of the user.
The form with uid is not the DN.

Hi Mastertoto,
It is working fine for me in my machine.
i'm suing alfresco labs 3.0 stable with openldap 2.2.29
Can u provide ur environment so dat i can look into that.
caheck ur configurations ones again both in sync file and authentication file
ldap-authentication.properties, and ldap-synchronisation.properties
ldap.synchronisation.userIdAttributeName=uid put it in sync file.

Regards,
Alfreso user
