Weblogic LDAP configuration

From PTAGISWiki

Setting up Weblogic on bay, I found that the ptagis web app deployed properly, but won't allow any logins. The ptagis.settings file is set to skip sitescape authentication and just do ldap authentication.

I found I hadn't configured an iPlanetLDAP authenticator in the new weblogic. The place to do that is here:

mydomain> Domain Wide Security Settings> Realms> myrealm> Authentication Providers> IPlanetAuthenticator

I copied the settings from the working weblogic, but still logins are denied. The error message hidden in the html comments looks like this:

<td colspan="8">
Authentication failed! <!--[Security:090304]Authentication Failed: 
User rday javax.security.auth.login.FailedLoginException: 
[Security:090302]Authentication Failed: User rday denied--></td>

These comments are also in that page:

		<!-- skip.ldap.authentication:false -->
		<!-- skip.sef.authentication:true -->
		<!-- skip.stylereport.authentication:false -->
