Microsoft Active Directory Integration in Activiti 5.18

[nu2activiti]

Hello,

I have searched and read the available related articles thoroughly but no luck.

I get the error as

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'demoDataConfiguration': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.activiti.engine.ActivitiIllegalArgumentException: This query is not supported by the LDAPGroupManager

Caused by: org.activiti.engine.ActivitiIllegalArgumentException: This query is not supported by the LDAPGroupManager

‍‍‍‍‍‍

Following is what my activiti-custom-context.xml looks like

You need to comment out the demo data configuration, which creates the default users.
With an LDAP server, this is not needed.

Thanks jbarrez for taking your time out.

I tried this
<code>
# demo data properties
create.demo.users=false
</code>
which I think is equivalent to the following

<code>
<bean id="demoDataGenerator" class="org.activiti.explorer.demo.DemoDataGenerator" init-method="init">
<property name="processEngine" ref="processEngine" />

<!– Set following properties to false if certain demo data is not wanted –>
<property name="createDemoUsersAndGroups" value="false" />
</bean>
</code>

Now that error is not there but still I cannot login using my username and password.

Please help.

nu2activiti _ ,

Please if you have found a solution post it for me.

Yes, either that or simply comment out the whole demoDataGenerator.

"I cannot login using my username and password."

And you are using your LDAP user/pass correctly? Do you see anything in the logs? If your LDAP config is correct, it should allow you to use the LDAP credentials.
