[Koha] Shibboleth authenticationa and autocreation

[Björn Nylén]

Hi!

Thanks för your reply. It seems my problem with autocreate is that the config isn't properly read. The <autocreate> tag seems undefined when checking if it is set.

I'll have to look into some more.

Hi,

I've only used it matching userid, but reading the code, I assume you
can use any unique borrower field to match.

Patron auto-creation works for me, using the same kind of configuration
you have, but I had to replace

%borrower = AddMember_Auto( %borrower );

with

%borrower = C4::Members::AddMember_Auto( %borrower );

in the _autocreate function in C4/Auth_with_shibboleth.pm on one of my
koha instances, for what it's worth.

You should activate debug (at least in C4/Auth_with_shibboleth.pm) in
order to see what's happening.
