I can't seem to get Bulk importing working.

I can’t get it working either. It tells me my bulkimport.php can’t be found, although it is where it is supposed to be.

I don’t have a problem with bulkimport.php not being found, what does your error log say?

I also get issue with bulk import

tuneo, if it helps I finally figured out why I was unable to get a successful import. My base_dn string was out of order. I had no idea that the order was important.

my string is CN=Users,DC=<mydomain>,DC=edu, having the group anywhere else in the string caused my import to fail saying it couldn’t find the group.

And the actual user group is default domain users;id:513 in the bulk import tool.

I got the same issue as tuneo did.

It seems that ADI did not store password for bulk importer. I tried to inject password directly into the code and that changed situation into this.

But new users are still not imported. It’s so sad ?? What am I doing wrong?

Whoa! I made this think work. Only by using “id:513” in “Import members of security groups”.

I got:
Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead in //wp-content/plugins/active-directory-integration/ad_ldap/adLDAP.php on line 2581

for every imported user. But still I got a list of users imported.

Still have no idea what to do with password ??

And I imported the whole Domain Users group which is not neсessary at all ??

BTW. By changing id (for example to 514) I can get users from almost all other groups. “Almost” means that I still can’t reach desired groups (for example with id:1123)

mokelock, you shouldn’t need a password in the bulk import tool you can leave it blank. You just need a username that has read access to everyone you’re attempting to import.

As for your Deprecated alert, it’s not an error it’s just been deprecated in PHP 5.5.X. That’s something for the author to change.

I’m unsure about your user group that gave me the most difficulties, I had to add users to the base_dn and only then did it finally import.

Jason, I can’t get the idea: how can I access AD without a password? What kind of user should it be?

Honestly I have no idea, I didn’t set up my own user account in the Active Directory. It’s not really my department I was only tasked with connecting this wordpress installation to the AD. My user is a member of the domain admins group though.

Mokelock, you don’t need a password – you only put a password in the box if you want to CHANGE the password for the admin account.

Dear Jason and Mokelock,
One thing I can thinking about, is that I ever made it work before with old environment shown below
-Apache 2.2.8
-PHP 5.2.6
-MySQL 5.0.51b
Then I do upgrade my site to use
-Apache 2.4
-PHP 5.4.31
-MySQL 5.5.39
And without changing any configuration then the issue occur, and I can not import new AD user to WordPress

ssergutaboselaw, are you trying to say that I can get userlist from my AD without any passwords? All I have to specify is user? No authorization’s required? It’s nonsense!
I’m trying to say that I can’t access my AD until I wrote password directly in the plugin’s code. So it seems that the password is not stored anywhere.

Dear Mokelock and all,
I have try direct inject password to the code as Mokelock did and it work as he said. Bulkimport.php

//$ad_password = $this->_decrypt($this->_bulkimport_pwd);
$ad_password = ‘my_password_here’;

Then I focus on php _decrypt function which is may not work or _bulkimport_pwd parameter issue.

I guess that it must be some charector hidden in the password then I using trim to clear it off.

$ad_password = $this->_decrypt($this->_bulkimport_pwd);
$ad_password = trim($ad_password);

Then come back to work!
