Need help debugging ldap authentication

[snesbitt]

All:

Does anyone know how to configure logging so I can debug alfresco authentication?

I have an instance of alfresco 2.1 embedded as a portlet in liferay 4.3.1 under tomcat 5.5. As an interim step toward CAS SSO, I am trying to configure LDAP authentication for alfresco with no success so far.  To debug this I really need to output what is going on, but I can't  figure out how to up the output for authentication.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Steve,
As far as I know you can tune the logging output in the log4j.properties file in the alfresco war folder WEB-INF/classes directory. You may have to copy the properties file to tomcats common directory .. ???

Alternatively, if you have the Alfresco SDK installed and are running the server fromEclipse (or some IDE) you can debug line by line in AuthenticationComponentImpl and ServerConfiguration may give more clues

Hope this helps…..
