I suddenly experienced problems when trying to enable LDAP
authentication in RT3. After a long debugging session, the the problem
seems to be that $self->Name is not properly expanded in the search
query build process.
We changed the relevant code to do the following[1] unpleasant thing,
which fixes things for us over here. To be honest, we don’t know what’s
going on here, but the pack/unpack seems to fix our problem (User_Local
got stuck and never returned from the search).
Regards,
Harald
