Description

Over xmas, I think after a CVS update I did before leaving, LDAP authentication stopped working completely.

From the error log:

[Mon Jan 07 09:51:56 2008] [error] [client 192.168.3.44] File does not exist: E:/Moodle_webserver/moodle/login/ad, referer: https://www.mymoodle.com/login/index.php

I can't find a reference to that address in index.php, although I'm still looking. This has locked out almost all users and I really need a fix!

To clarify, the error on screen is

LDAP-module cannot connect to any servers:

and the error above only appears after pressing continue and finding the page saying object not found. No settings have changed since before,when it was working (I think - maybe someone else did?), and it I've narrowed it down to a failure to bind using the username and pass in ldap_connect().

Update: My IT guys had changed the LDAP bind password, then forgot they'd done it and told me they hadn't.

The error about login/ad is still a bug though, so this needs to re-titled to 'continue button broken after failure to connect to LDAP server'

also downgrade from blocker please
