Problem in using blue groups


Vibha Sinha (1643610) | asked Sep 12 '08, 9:12 a.m.
Hi

I am following the instructions to setup TeamConcert to use bluegroups for my LDAP setting, following the instructions on - https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/LDAP4Dummies

I changed the server.xml and web.xml. Was able to login into - https://localhost:9443/jazz/web

I make changes on the jazz/setup page for bluegroups ldap. The test connection works fine. However, when I click next, I get an error which says - "There was an error attempting to create the new user: undefined". Is there some setting which I am missing here ?

The teamserver.properties seems to have been updated though and I am also able to login into the jazz server using my ibm id.

However, if I call the following currentContributor service using -
https://localhost:9443/jazz/service/com.ibm.team.repository.common.internal.IContributorRestService/currentContributor

The record still says user = ADMIN

- <soapenv>
- <response>
<method>getCurrentContributor</method>
<interface>com.ibm.team.repository.common.internal.IContributorRestService</interface>
- <returnValue>
<type>COMPLEX</type>
- <value>
<stateId>_Z9AoECFWEdqvE47yzajdrw</stateId>
<immutable>true</immutable>
<modified>2008-09-09T13:49:56.790Z</modified>
<mergePredecessor>
<predecessor>
<emailAddress>ADMIN</emailAddress>
<userId>ADMIN</userId>
<name>ADMIN</name>
<archived>false</archived>
<modifiedBy>
<details>
</value>
</returnValue>
</response>
</soapenv>
</soapenv>


Is this expected behavior ?

Thanks

Hello Balaji,

When I try to change the LDAP settings from /jazz/setup, I get the following error -
"There was an error attempting to create the new user: undefined".

Whatever changes I made to the LDAP settings get saved in team.properties. However, the users which I defined in my bluegroups do not get added in contributors list.

I then manually create contributors calling the following REST service -
https://<context>/jazz/service/com.ibm.team.repository.common.internal.IContributorRestService/contributor

I am sending you my teamserver.properties and web.xml over email.

Thanks

Vibha,

I believe your id is not present in the repository. When you login using
your LDAP id, go to server:9443/jazz/setup to configure LDAP, we try to
create your id automatically in Jazz. From the exception message, it looks
like the create operation failed. Thats the reason the current contributor
is set to ADMIN and not vsinha.

Can you attach the teamserver.properties file ?
