    Trying to hit old LDAP server from latest version of WordPress and it can’t authenticate the password. Its never worked from the latest version of WordPress. I get error “Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wpdirauth/wpDirAuth.php on line 1279.
    Version wpDirAuth 1.7.15. How can I get more troubleshooting info?
    Thanks!

    – eDirectory Tree the version is based on the eDirectory Version
    – Ldap Version 2 and 3

    Which specific error message are you getting? Also, when you say it can’t authenticate the password, do you mean an ad-authenticated user’s password? Or the pre-bind account password?

    WordPress Login Error: Incorrect password. – on the front screen.

    “Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wpdirauth/wpDirAuth.php on line 1279 – in the back-end log errors

    if the error mentions a password, then the user account, at least as far as wordpress is concerned, isnt an ad-authenticated account. when an ad-authenticated account fails, it’ll say to check your credentials.

    what’s your set up? multisite or single? was it working before the last wordpress upgrade? what version of the plugin are you on? can you still login with a local account and verify all of the plugin settings? Also, try to edit this specific user account and see if the edit user screen allows you to generate a new password/edit the user’s password. if so, then that account isnt an ad-authenticated account.

    I figured this out. I had to enable httpd_can_connect_ldap on CentOS7. By default, this was off. THANKS!
