Moodle LDAP not working :(

[FN-GM]

Hi,

 

I setup Moodle with LDAP last week and it worked perfect

 

Today when a student tries to login it doesn't let them in it just says invalid username or password. But it works perfect on the test accounts and they are exactaly the same as the Student accounts.

 

The only difference is the username format

 

Test account 07test

Student Account t072johns

 

Does anyone have any tips please?

 

Thanks

are both accounts in the same ou?

have you set the account to use ldap (prehaps its been used previously with the internal inrolement)

Its a brand new moodle site, both accounts are in the same OU

Penny Dropped!

 

I restored an old course from the Old Moodle isntall and i created all the old users. These users had the same usernames as the LDAP users. I deleted all the accounts.

 

What can i do to reset it so it picks up the old deleted accounts with the username but on LDAP?

 

Thanks

PS: the old server didnt use LDAP

Does anyone reckon the LDAP Sync Script could help?

 

Thanks

not sure what to do from here, if the accounts still existed i would have set them to use ldap individually. ( or by twiddling with sql) .

 

could be that the accounts are still somewhere even if theyre not in the db.

I upgraded moodle so that would invole a new set of files. The only ones left i can tink of is in the moodle data directory.
