Hi,
I am trying to connect by LDAP with Active Directory. I fill out the AuthLDAP form as shown in the picture, but it doesn't find the user and password.I try to log in with credentials:

Authentication: LDAP
Login: Name Surname *sAMAccountName*
Pass : ******

Please tell me what I'm doing wrong, maybe I haven't set up something else.

«CN=Name Surname» Are you sure ?
Remove the optionnal filter for start : make it the most simple.

LDAP filter is complex, but it's not related to LimeSurvey.

Name Surname - this data has been changed in the screenshot, and normally I enter the data from the Active Directory. In AD I have CN like myName mySurname myNumber. In this form in place "Optional DN of the LDAP account used to search for the end-user's DN. An anonymous bind is performed if empty." I type distinguishedName from AD.

In my opinion : the issue is here.

To use search and bind : you need a user with rights on all users's.

With AD : i think you must use "Simple bind" authentication : AD check if user can log in with current account.

There are sample www.limesurvey.org/manual/Authentication...s_AD2008_.26_2.05.2B

and I must "Create a LimeSurvey user with the same name as a AD(active directory) user account "? What does that mean? I need create user in User Contol in Lime?

2 solution :
1. all AD user can access LimeSUrvey, no need to create (create is done automatically)
2. If not (you disable the autocreate) : the same login must be created before the 1st login.

But if i check option "Automatically create user if it exists in LDAP server" in AuthLDAP form then I get such an error as in the attachment. Maybe I have a wrong connection with AD? This connection is set only in limesurvey form or somewhere in the configuration files?

Except : it muts not shown an error like this byu a clean error to user : if you can report like this "Show a clean error with bad settings in LDAP"

I dont understand u with this "Show a clean error with bad settings in LDAP", where it is?
And now I have another error

I mean : you can report an issue to show a better error.

Here it's an issue too, but why you use debug mode ?

It's seems youn have more than one user here ?
github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/62...thLDAP.php#L516-L517

Sorry, but where I can report this issue to show better error?
I use debug mode because I see an error other than just a bad username/password. In my AD I have only one user with this number/mail which I'm trying to log in to ldap. He is also domain administrator.

Ok, create users and log in works.
But very user I create is an admin and I want them to be normal users who can fill in the polls.
