Description
Seen in user_ldap 0.15.3-rc1 with core 10.8.0-beta1
- Add a new ldap server configuration,
- Set host, port, username and password
- detect base dn, and test. A number of entries is returned. OK
- Switch to tab User.
A yellow error pops up imediately:
Whatever I enter, nothing works. No users (and no groups) can be found.
I've seen that earlier with a different ldap server, but at some point it went away and since then this other server works.
Expected behaviour: error messages should give some hints what is wrong.

Research direction
Reproduce the LDAP setup and switch to the User tab using user_ldap 0.15.3-rc1 with core 10.8.0-beta1. Start by tracing the user and group lookup path that produces “could not find the desired feature”; done means the lookup works for the reported server or the error identifies the underlying problem and offers useful hints.
