    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      If you are missing the "membershipAttribute" in confluence/WEB-INF/classes/atlassian-user.xml when you run the in build paddle tool, you get the following error:

      java.lang.NullPointerException
	at javax.naming.directory.BasicAttributes.get(BasicAttributes.java:144)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.search.GroupResultConverter.getAttributeValues(GroupResultConverter.java:45)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.search.GroupResultConverter.convert(GroupResultConverter.java:36)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.search.DefaultSearcher.search(DefaultSearcher.java:43)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.task.ListGroupsTask.doSearch(ListGroupsTask.java:47)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.task.ListGroupsTask.withConnection(ListGroupsTask.java:33)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.task.DefaultTaskRunner.runTask(DefaultTaskRunner.java:36)
	at com.atlassian.paddle.Paddle.testConnectivity(Paddle.java:131)

      Also if you do not have the brackets around objectclass eg

      			<userSearchFilter>objectClass=inetorgperson</userSearchFilter>

      the paddle will not report any errors, however when trying to log in with a LDAP user, confluence will throw a NPE, see http://confluence.atlassian.com/x/twOCCQ.
