Ok finally getting somewhere now, no PHP errors are logged btw…. but….

It came to my attention that when i disabled Anonymous Authentication there was immediately no logging from the plugin added to the logs when i hit F5 on the website and the error 500 it produces states exactly:

500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

The resource that its probably been looking for all the time (and probably needs write access to it) is the log file. But since “Authenticated Users” has no write access to the log file in the plugindir it just ends up with this error.

TL;DR:
– When logging is enabled within this plugin you need to give “Authenticated Users” write/modify access to the logdir.
or
– Just dont enable logging at all.

Basicly it all should have worked before when i just let the plugin logging disabled. Please fix this in the next release or mention it somewhere.

Will implement the plugin on our production site soon since its now working correctly.

FYI, steps to reproduce:

– Installed WP 5.4.4 (that one should be supported by NADI) on a new DB;
– Installed NADI;
– Configured NADI;
– Disabled Anonymous Authentication in IIS, enabled Windows Authentication (Negotiate over NTLM)

Results in … Server Error 500 …

Theres definately something wrong in the plugin.

I also tried to rewrite the REMOTE_USER with Helicon Manager and when dumping the $_SERVER i can clearly see the rewrite is succesfull buth NADI still gives the same error/result. Will investigate further…

Not to be picky or something but i can also confirm that miniorange gets a working SSO on my own brand-new WordPress setup out-of-the-box so it must be this plugin which handles SSO incorrectly. Hope the author can/will test this latest setup; WP 5.5.3, PHP7.4.12 installed on a clean WinServer2012 setup (IIS8.5), no other plugins or programs installed.

Ok, too bad… ive correctly inserted it into service.php at line 92 but its still not getting triggered. I’m not hitting a bug am i? Since a fellow user @sjones2701 reported a tiny similiar issue a week ago, you sure it should work? To my knowledge the wp_get_current_user function cannot dump a good result because its not authenticated and i only have one (admin) user in my wpusertable, so thats probably why its getting a error 500.

Still wondering why other plugins are correctly working with SSO, for example iisauth.php has a simple code that is retrieving the REMOTE_USER with the following php code:
$username = substr($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'], strrpos($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'], '\\') + 1);
and then insert $username into the wpusertable. Thats working perfectly in my WordPress enviroment, but i need some other features that your plugin has.

Anyway thanks for your support, i will also try to get it work by editing the plugin.

Thnx btw for the fast replies.

I’ve added the var_dump(wp_get_current_user()); to the index.php and its getting a:

500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

Also added inside the ..\service.php authenticate function but again this function apparently is not getting triggered.

Added into wordpress\index.php and variable is filled with correct REMOTE_USER that is logged on. So thats correct.
Added into plugindir\..\service.php and nothing is getting triggered, its just opening the site without sso. So the dump is not getting triggered.

Im not using any other plugins, im setting up a complete new wordpress site with only sso login plugig for testing purposes, after that is working i will implement it on our production site.

Thnx for the quick reply…

– Sorry i outputted the dump incorrectly, the “GET” was from a previous variable, the dump was created with var_dump($_SERVER)
["REQUEST_METHOD"]=> string(3) "GET" ["REMOTE_USER"]=> string(19) "DOMAIN\xxxxxxxxx"
– No proxy
– Other plugin was from miniorange on the same wordpress instance (which works but i dont like this plugin) and from another blog post i got iisauth.php from realdolmen (https://blog.maartenballiauw.be/post/2011/05/04/wordpress-auto-sign-on-with-iis7-and-a-plugin.html) which also works on the same wordpress instance but does not have many features.

-edit-
Other features on your plugin works perfectly: Sync from/to AD/Wordpress, testing authentication, ldap connections, etc… its just the REMOTE_USER variable which is not working so i can not get integrated SSO to work.

Author has helped the issue by editing the code. Thanks

Pagination issue is fixed by not using the Permalink Settings in the DWQA Settings. I tried to set “prikbord” but removed it and used the standard /topic/ permalink.

Still need help with the email required field.
