Bug Description
Mahara 1.8, Moodle 2.5
Hi Everyone,
This is really a Mahoodle bug, maybe.
Scenario someone logs into Mahara via LDAP, an account is created if the user is authenticated.
Same user logs into Moodle later on, then SSO's to Mahara - another account is created with a "1" after the student ID.
This only happens for some people, the other important thing to note is that the authentication fallback order is:
LDAP
XMLRPC
Internal
The bug seems to be that Mahara isn't checking if a user has an existing account regardless of which authentication methods was used to create the account.
Thanks for your time.
Shane.
To post a comment you must log in.
There are also instances of duplicate accounts from LDAP: eg
NAME u77777771 <email address hidden> LearnOnline UC LDAP
NAME U7777777 <email address hidden> LearnOnline UC LDAP
So maybe you don't need a mahoodle env to test this one.... (???)
