cas_minus_ldap.patch (0.9 kB)

Environment:
|
This was discovered using Moodle on an Ubuntu server, though I doubt the issue is related to the environment.
|
|
After configuring CAS on a fresh Moodle install and updating the mdl_user table with:
update mdl_user set auth='cas';
we get successfully redirected on login to the CAS server and back to Moodle as we would expect.
However, it then returns an error about not being able to connect to the LDAP server. We aren't using LDAP, and we didn't configure Moodle to use LDAP, so that would be a bug.
The patch that we made to work around the bug was to comment out the calls to update_user_record and create_user_record that are found in lib/moodlelib.php. It would be better if Moodle recognized that we were not using LDAP and that it wouldn't try to update or create users in that case.

Minor
Moodle CAS crashes if no LDAP is set up
We are providing all user, course and enrollments via IMS to Moodle.
We would like to use CAS, but moodle needs an ldap config (fails without it). Witjhout editing source, we cannot accomplish this.
