ScrewTurn Wiki Active Directory Support

Question

Environment

• ScrewTurn Wiki (most recent stable build)
• Windows 7 x64
• IIS 7

The wiki is currently installed on my development box while we provision a server.

Configuration

GroupMap=ABC GROUP:Administrators

It is in fact two words like it looks.

So I installed ScrewTurn Wiki as well as the commonly accepted Active Directory Provider for it. And last week everything was working really well. When new users that existed in the domain group hit the site a new STW user was created and setup in the right group. Further, when I hit the site it logged me in with my AD credentials.

However, when I hit the site today it's not logging me in with my AD credentials.

To add insult to injury, my peers are logging in just fine with their AD credentials.

I looked at the plug-in through the administration console it says Error in the Update Status column. Could that be causing my issue?

Could it be that it's running on my development box? That doesn't make sense because it was working last week - but it's worth asking.

Answer 1

Hopefully if anybody runs across this - this will help. The issue is that STW creates an actual user. I know that kind of goes without saying - but in my case I was logging in and out as admin as well to administer some other things on my box.

Because of that it wasn't caching the logged in user as my AD user. When I logged in with my AD user name and password through the login screen it leveraged the AD authentication and logged me in as expected. But I did in fact have to login manually.
