Could Not Set User Info RT-Authen-ExternalAuth (ExternalInfoPriority)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello all,

I have seen many questions and posts based on this but I have yet to
find a working solution.

“User could not be created: Could not set user info” when creating a new
internal user.

What is the supposed setting please for ExternalInfoPriority?
I have tried undef, 0, internal etc.
If I disable the plugin I can create an internal user.

Set($ExternalAuthPriority, [‘LDAP’]);
Set($ExternalInfoPriority, [‘WhatTheHellIsSupposedToGoInHere’]);
Set($ExternalServiceUsesSSLorTLS, 0);
Set($AutoCreateNonExternalUsers, 0);
Set($ExternalSettings, {
‘LDAP’ => {
‘type’ => ‘ldap’,
‘auth’ => 1,
‘info’ => 0,
‘server’ => ‘***8’,
‘user’ => ‘’,
‘pass’ => ‘’,
‘base’ => ‘dc=*,dc=,dc=,dc=’,
‘filter’ => '(objectClass=
)',
‘d_filter’ => ‘(objectClass=ThisWillNeverMatch)’,
‘tls’ => 0,
‘ssl_version’ => 3,
‘net_ldap_args’ => [version => 3],
‘group’ => 'cn=rt,ou=groups,dc=
,dc=
,dc=,dc=’,
‘group_attr’ => ‘member’,
‘attr_match_list’ => [‘Name’, ‘EmailAddress’],
‘attr_map’ => {‘Name’ => ‘uid’, ‘RealName’ => ‘cn’,
‘ExternalAuthId’ => ‘uid’, ‘Gecos’ => ‘cn’, ‘EmailAddress’ => ‘mail’}
}
}
);

“User could not be created: Could not set user info” when creating a new
internal user.

I suspect that most of the time this question comes up on the list,
you’ll see someone telling you to check $AutoCreateNonExternalUsers

What is the supposed setting please for ExternalInfoPriority?
I have tried undef, 0, internal etc.
If I disable the plugin I can create an internal user.

The documentation says

The order in which the services defined in ExternalSettings

should be used to get information about users.

So, you use the service name you defined in ExternalSettings.
