Support changing active status (activating/deactivating) for users in OpenLDAP directories

    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Unresolved
    • Priority: Medium
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: 2.0.7, 2.4, 2.8.3, 2.8.4, 2.10.1
    • Component/s: Directory - LDAP, User Management
    • Environment:

      Crowd with LDAP as backend, LDAP administration by Collax Businness Server

    • 29
    • Severity 3 - Minor
    • 7

      When we change in Collax a user to "inactive", this state is not reflected in the crowd database.
      The proposed workaround is to remove the user from ldap and re-create the user on crowd. The result is two directories of users in one company. Administration, search, migration will become error-prone and is not acceptable for us. After using crowd with LDAP for about 2 yours, we get to our licence-limit of 100, where the active users are about 70 users.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. install Crowd
      2. Create new Directory connecting to OpenLDAP using Connector
      3. try to disable any user sync from OpenLDAP by unchecking the Active checkbox

      Expected Behaviour:
      User will be disactivated

      Actual Behaviour:
      Crowd indicate update is sucessful, but the user remain active

      Environment:
      Crowd connected to OpenLDAP

      Notes
      This is not reproducible when Crowd is connecting to Microsoft AD
