Description
- create a new group in LDAP
- share with this new group using the sharing API e.g.
curl -u user0:1234 http://localhost/owncloud-core/ocs/v1.php/apps/files_sharing/api/v1/shares -d "path=FOLDER&shareType=1&permissions=31&shareWith=grp6"
result -> <message>Please specify a valid group</message>
syncing users via user:sync "OCA\User_LDAP\User_Proxy" does not help
./occ ldap:update-group grp6 does not work:
Group membership attribute is critical for this command, please verify.
* localhost:389 -> memberUid
The following groups are missing in the DB and will be skipped: grp6
BUT after ./occ group:list the group is listed and can be used
- after fixing this un-skip acceptance tests in core marked with
@user_ldap-issue-268 - after fixing this un-skip acceptance tests in user_ldap marked with
@issue-268

Research direction
Reproduce the LDAP group-sharing request with the shown API call, then trace the group lookup and the ldap:update-group grp6 behavior. Use the core acceptance tests marked @user_ldap-issue-268 and the user_ldap tests marked @issue-268; done means newly created LDAP groups are accepted by the sharing API and both test groups can be uns-skipped.
