Hi Max,
Yes - looks like there's a bit of a logic flow problem going on there - the
check for an empty email is being performed twice, and the first is not needed.
Try looking at
[dsapce-src]/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/authenticate/LDAPHierarchicalAuthentication.java
and find the line:
if ((ldap.ldapEmail!=null)&&(!ldap.ldapEmail.equals("")))
(about line 254) and change it to:
if (true)
Rebuild, redeploy etc. If may throw a null pointer exception, if so, add just
before the if statement:
if (ldap.ldapEmail == null) ldap.ldapEmail = "";
If this fixes the problem, we'll look at getting it corrected in the next
release.
Thanks,
