[Koha] Need help about LDAP authentication problem

[Karam Qubsi]

Hi All ,
I tried to configure LDAP following the documentation here :
http://perldoc.koha-community.org/C4/Auth_with_ldap.html
and here :
http://bywatersolutions.com/2011/09/08/how-ldap-connections-work-in-koha-3-4/
and :
http://bywatersolutions.com/2012/07/09/koha-ldap/

My configuration in koha-conf.xml is looks like  :

<ldapserver id="ldapserver">
  <hostname>172.17.250.3</hostname>
  <base>dc=lms,dc=mediu,dc=edu,dc=my</base>
  <user>cn=admin,dc=lms,dc=mediu,dc=edu,dc=my</user>
  <pass>PASSWORD</pass>
  <replicate>1</replicate>
  <update>1</update>

 <mapping>
 <surname is="sn"></surname>
 <branchcode is="">HQ</branchcode>
 <categorycode is="">ST</categorycode>
 <address is="">Shah Alam</address>
 <city is="">Shah Alam</city>
 <userid is="uid"></userid>
 <password is="userPassword"></password>
 </mapping>
 </ldapserver>

But the LDAP authentication is not working with me (using koha 3.10.05
package installation  )

the opac-log file gives me these messages when I try to log in using ldap :

 opac-user.pl: Use of uninitialized value in string ne at

the syspref " AllowPkiAuth" set to "no" I don't know what is
 $pki_field that related to .


anyway I hope if someone can give me some ideas to follow to solve this

We are using OpenLDAP
