[opencms-dev] LDAP-connector in OpenCMS 6.0.4

[pascal.hollenbrock at bayerbbs.com]

Hi list!

I have recently installed the Alkacon OCEE LDAP-connector on OpenCMS 6.0.4 
(running on Tomcat 5.5.9 and MySQL 4.1). The CMS is connected to a 
version3-compliant LDAP. 

If I logon with my user-data as they are stored within the LDAP a blank 
page appears, nothing more - no warning or error. Therefore I think that 
the system recognizes that I am using the correct password as saved within 
the LDAP. If I login as local OpenCMS-user my user-ID with which I 
formerly tried to log in is displayed in the group "LDAP group", i.e. the 
system seems to have recognized my tryings to log in. 

However I can choose "Synchronize user" or whatever - I won't be able to 
login with me LDAP-UserID. 
The Log gives the following error:

A further aspect is that to me it seems that the connector does not list 
the groups or users of LDAP-subtree-level but only of the highest level. 

In consequence I have the following questions: 

(1) 
Why can't I login with my LDAP-UserID? Where could be the reason for the 
blank-page after login? Could it be an error within the LDAP-configuration 
of the OpenCMS-xml-files? 
Has anyone made similar experiences? 

(2) 
How can I assure that not only one level but instead all entries of the 
LDAP-subtrees are displayed? 

Thanks in advance for your answers,
Pascal
