Hi,

Try using :

#ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid=%s,ou=staff,dc=example,dc=com
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=%s@example.com

Sorry the same problem  :roll:

[dranakan]

Are you sure about your ldap.synchronization.userSearchBase ?

Using another tool like Softerra LDAP Browser (http://www.ldapadministrator.com/download.htm) could you verify your "ou" and "dc"

[vikramsra]

thanks for the app it was my mistake my ou was to perfect for the user

[dranakan]

Good 🙂 Don't forget to put this post as Solved.

Best regards.
