Description

Hi guys,

Im experiencing a really strange bug with user_ldap in owncloud 10 on debian stretch. My problem is, that all ldap users only get a owncloud user, if they log in again after the update. Ive read in the docs, that this is meant to be like that and that it is possible to manually trigger this by calling occ user:sync -l "OCA\User_LDAP\User_Proxy". If I do that or call occ ldap:test-config I get the error that the ldap connection could not be established, although I can do it with the same config in the web interface. Am I doing something wrong? Is it possible to force adding/syncing of ldap users through the web interface, like it was in owncloud 9 automatically?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the discrepancy between the web interface and the occ entry points user:sync -l "OCA\User_LDAP\User_Proxy" and ldap:test-config with the same configuration. Trace why the CLI cannot establish the LDAP connection while the web interface can; done means the CLI commands work consistently or the limitation and supported synchronization path are documented.
