When using the LDAPAuthStorePlugin in combination with the AccountManagerPlugin and LdapPlugin, trac throws the following when logging in:

[Ryan J Ollos]

Do you have the following in your trac.ini?:

[ldap]
enable = true

Replying to rjollos:

Do you have the following in your trac.ini?:

[ldap]
enable = true

My bad, it wasn't enabled. In any case, is it possible to add a warning or message saying that the LdapAuthStore is being used when not enabled?

[Ryan J Ollos]

I'm unsure of why the enable option is needed. If you don't wish to use the component, either disable it in the admin panel or remove LdapAuthStore from [account-manager] password_store, right?

igoltz: what do you think about just removing the option?

[igoltz]

LdapAuthStore needs the LdapPlugin and also use it's ini section [ldap] with own extensions. I don't know much of the LdapPlugin, but guess this entry is needed [ldap] enable = true

[Ryan J Ollos]

I didn't notice that the enable option is associated with the LdapPlugin rather than the LdapAuthStorePlugin.

When [ldap] enable is not true, if the aim is to force disable the LdapAuthStorePlugin, a better approach could be to remove the Component from the registry.

[igoltz]

LdapAuthStorePlugin needs rewriting to get rid of LdapPlugin
