Hi,
when I search for a user in the LDAP it is displayed in the search window. If I tap the “Copy to address book” icon, an internal server error appears:
Interner Serverfehler Der Server konnte die Anfrage nicht fertig stellen. Sollte dies erneut auftreten, sende bitte die nachfolgenden technischen Einzelheiten an Deinen Server-Administrator. Weitere Details können im Server-Protokoll gefunden werden. Technische Details Entfernte Adresse: 192.168.30.67
I see the following information in the nextcloud.log:

Is it possible to map multiple telephone number to work,home,mobile,fax numbers
also for IM in nextcloud Instant messaging IRC,XMPP,....
or other fields

Hello,

in Nextcloud version 22, trying to execute:

sudo -u www-data php occ ldap_contacts:add --interactive SomeText

exits with the following fatal error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 2097152 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 446464 bytes) in /var/www/html/3rdparty/composer/autoload_real.php on line 37

Any possible solutions?

I tried to make the memory_limit in /usr/local/etc/php/php.ini-production and development higher, but that did not help.

i run the cli command and entered all needed information but then no "success" nor a "failure" message is shown.

in the nextcloud gui there is also no button behind the users to add it to an own addressbook

At least update-nextcloud-ocp.yml needs to be updated so you are informed about failures. My recent PR purged your composer.lock to allow installing the latest version, but you will miss when this breaks again, unless the action template is updated to the latest

i can see the ldap search and it works with the Admin account but when i do it with an other user then appers a website with "The user must be a Administrator "

What can i do? any ideas?

Interactive mode has a lack of information.

I can't configure any LDAP backend on Nextcloud 20.0.2:

Hello, you make a very cool extension that helps automate adding contacts in my organization. But I noticed a small number of ldap attributes in the original stake. Could you add the ability to edit this variable DEFAULT_MAPPING, and add support for different ldap schemes, because the attributes in the directory and openldap assets may differ in the default scheme
Or just add birthdays please)

Hey, having some problem with setting this up on our Owncloud solution.
getting this error when specifying a filter or if leaving it blank. I have tried using the interactive menu, adding the filter= option and leaving it blank to run as default and all return the same value. its as if the filter= option and the interactive menu arent applying the filter i provide and the default one has an error causing it to fail. Below is an extract from the logs:

I cannot make it work on Nextcloud 23.0.2 and LDAP Contacts Backend 1.2.0

As far as I know, I configured the backend's addressbook correctly.
However, loading contacts from LDAP fails, and it fails so hard that it brings down global contact search in its entirety.

I never did php, but last time I managed to insert some printing to the affected code path, and I am pretty sure the configured search returns entries. Problem seems to be around LdapEntryToVcard Here is the sanitized log.

Any help making it work in NC AIO is much appreciated.

Hello,

I am trying to configure this plugin with my Nextcloud 28 instance. The authentication is handled by Keycloak via OpenID Connect Login plugin. Keycloak federates the user database from my Active Directory server, and the LDAP user backend plugin should be connected directly to my Active Directory server, bypassing Keycloak.

I installed the plugin and configured it as follows (the LDAP server is running locally):

id: 0
addressBookDisplayName: mycompany
host: localhost
port: 389
agentDn: CN=CloudContacts,OU=MyCompany-Services,DC=int,DC=example,DC=com
agentPassword: mySecretPass
bases:
  OU=MyCompany-Users,DC=int,DC=example,DC=com
searchAttributes:
  cn
  mail
  telephoneNumber
attributeMapping:
  EMAIL: mail
  FN: cn
  TEL: telephoneNumber
tEnc: none
filter:

Now, I can see my LDAP users in the contacts' menu in the top right corner of my Nextcloud user interface. Unfortunately, when I click the "Copy to address book" option, I get the Internal server error page and in the Nextcloud log system, I can see the following error:

LdapException Could not complete search with dn "CN=My Person,OU=test,OU=MyCompany-Users,DC=int,DC=example,DC=com",
query "" and filters "*". LDAP error was [-1] Can't contact LDAP server.

Hello,

I've installed and configured the LDAP Contacts Backend. Unfortunately, there is no icon to copy the contact to the address book. How could I solve that?

Hello,
Would it be possible to follow instructions on:

...and make your app more accessible for non-English speakers please?

Thanks :-)

• LDAP connectivity settings
  • add one or more LDAP connections
  • optionally import from LDAP backend
  • per each specify base, filter, attribute mappings
  • and the addressbook display name
• A virtual addressbook
  • like the system addressbook, but browsable in the contacts app (so, perhaps might be a read-only user addressbook for this) (not desired). Read only nevertheless.
  • advantage: it feeds both contacts menu as well as auto-complete
  • implement as a DAV plugin
• A contacts menu data provider
  • offers an import actions if the contacts is only in the LDAP addressbook
  • ⚠ importing it a user addressbook makes is writeable, but it will be overwritten on updates with the sync (see further). But perhaps we can make it smart and merge only what has changed.
• Data handling
  • since contacts app loads all contacts, a live access to LDAP is not reasonable (appearance in contacts app not desired)
  • a regular background job will sync (and update) all records from LDAP
  • a sync button on the settings page can schedule a sync for the next run (e.g. also for initial sync)
  • in order to prevent information loss through carrdav clients, imported contacts are being mapped to the LDAP record (or its addressbook id) for future updates. (not desired)
  • When a contact cannot be found on LDAP anymore, it is removed from the virtual addressbook as well as the mapping. Connected imported contacts are left in the user addressbooks. (not desired)

EDIT: data handling turned out to be not necessary, as the search performance against LDAP is good

Hello,
I implement that plugin. Not very easy but very cool tool !

I face a difficulty.
In case of simple VCARD field like MAIL no issue.
In case of more complex field such as TEL or ADR, I don't see how I can't stick to VCARD format using coma as separator...

for ADR:
Using Dolibarr, my LDAP is filled up for address with multiple fields

• street
• postalcode
• L (city)

So that, it would be logical for me to have a mapping looking like:
ADR;TYPE=WORK:;;street;L;;postalcode;

Is there a workaround for that issue ?

For TEL,
it is slightly different.
You set up an aproach like "TEL:telephonenumber,mobile"
This does not help to fill TYPE.
It would be interesting to have
TEL;TYPE=CELL:mobile <-- this is working
but
TEL;TYPE=WORK,VOICE:telephonenumber <-- this is not working probably because of coma between work and voice (not 100% sure)

Would it be possible to tweak a bit your code to solve that 2 issues ?
Many thanks

Mockups

Settings overview

Collapsed overview (to be placed below the currently existing LDAP settings):

Not very spectacular. It is a list of collapsed, configured LDAP connections that should be used a contacts backend, plus the option to add one.

Full view of a backend configuration

The connection details would be collapsed by default. The thought behind them is: if an existing LDAP configuration is being used, look up the settings from there. If something else is necessary, like a different service user for permissions, this can be unlocked or unbound and we copy the stuff over that we need. The button and info text will not be shown. These fields are also necessary when we have a connection entirely separate from a user backend one.

The rest is as above.

New connection picker model

Lists the available configurations from the user backend and an option for a new connection. Straight forward.

Hi @blizzz,
As far as I've seen in the two tickets (I didn't check the code), you're only mapping the display name. I propose you should also map fist name and last name seperately. This allows you to distinguish more precisely in he following cases:

• Three names, for example:
  • Two first names, e.g. John Jacob Astor
  • Two last names, e.g. Felix Schulze Müller (yes, I know a person named like this and his two last names are seperated by a space)
  • Titles, e.g. Dr. John Doe
  • Nobility, e.g. Otto Graf von Bismarck
