When sharing a file or folder with a Custom Group, everything works properly and the users of the Custom Groups can see the folders or files. When i am sharing a folder or file with a regular group (which is coming in from openldap) the users can not see the files or folders.
Actual behaviour
Users do not see the files
Server configuration
Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04
Web server: Apache
Database: MYSQL
PHP version: 7
ownCloud version: 10.0.4
Updated from an older ownCloud or fresh install:
Where did you install ownCloud from:
I don't think the other system settings are relevant - my assumption is that this is maybe an issue with ldap? The server connects and users can log in and also see that they are members of the specific groups - the only problem is that when you select one of these groups to share to nothing happens!
i can get that for you Monday when i'm back in the office (this set-up is a demo and only on the local network at the moment).
I changed the Group-Member association option from uniqueMember to memberUid which resulted in the correct groups being listed next to the appropriate user under Users.
So users are authenticating through ldap, groups are populating through ldap with the users, but even though the groups are showing up they don't seem to do anything.
ok - back in the office now. Please let me know what information would be helpful here. To reiterate, each user shows that they are members of the correct groups under user settings. Groups also work fine when i am using custom groups within owncloud or when i create a group manually. The issue is with groups which are coming from LDAP. The names are showing up, the users are connected to the groups, but there doesn't seem to actually be a group..
since the issue seems to be with the LDAP integration in ownCloud, I would like to see how you configured your LDAP server in the ownCloud settings. Just go to the user authentications and share your configuration.
Ok - please see below for all settings on my demo servers. Please let me know what you think when you have a chance.. This system doesn't make it easy to upload images or attachments or links so hopefully you can get all of the screen shots from the links in the pastebin below.
