Warning in Logs: Could not find the attribute
Symptoms
When connected to a LDAP server, Fisheye fails to fetch some of the LDAP attributes and reports the following warning in the fisheye-debug-<date>.log file:
Exception
2012-12-06 12:01:30,117 WARN [btpool0-3394 ] fisheye LDAPAuth-extract - Could not find the attribute '' in LDAPCause
One of the LDAP attributes is missing from Fisheye configuration. In this example it was the displyName Attribute, as per the <FISHEYE_INST>/config.xml:
<ldap auto-add="true" url="<LDAP URL>"
base-dn="cn=users, dc=example, dc=atlassian, dc=com" filter="(uid=${USERNAME})
" uid-attr="uid" positive-cache-ttl="5 minutes" displayname-attr=""
resync="true" resyncPeriod="1 hour"/>
notice the displayname-attr="" is blank.
Resolution
Update this element:
<ldap auto-add="true" url="<LDAP URL>"
base-dn="cn=users, dc=example, dc=atlassian, dc=com" filter="(uid=${USERNAME})
" uid-attr="uid" positive-cache-ttl="5 minutes" displayname-attr=""
resync="true" resyncPeriod="1 hour"/>
as follows:
<ldap auto-add="true" url="<LDAP URL>"
base-dn="cn=users, dc=example, dc=atlassian, dc=com" filter="(uid=${USERNAME})
" uid-attr="uid" positive-cache-ttl="5 minutes" displayname-attr="displayName"
resync="true" resyncPeriod="1 hour"/>
