Can not add AD #13

Open TravisWilder opened 4 years ago

TravisWilder commented 4 years ago

Hello, adding an ad is failing. I use on the same server a Laravel installation with Adldap2 which works fine with the same settings.

ActiveDirectory SSL Port 636

Response is always: ldap_bind(): Unable to bind to server: Can't contact LDAP server Does not change if I use only one hostname or IP

looking also forward on the LdapRecord-Laravel documentation bye Travis

Hi @TravisWilder, thanks for the report!

I'll leave this open so I know to work on it, but Scout is not ready for use - you will encounter many bugs and issues. It's not even in alpha state. A GitHub release will be created when it is ready for alpha / beta.

Ok .. let me know if you need help or testing I already started something similar, but you did better - so I wanted to switch

stevebauman commented 4 years ago

Thanks for your kind words! :heart: Really appreciate it.

I'm really excited about Scout - I've been wanting to build it for a long time. It's something I've been needing for a while and there's nothing good out there that is free (in my opinion).

I'll absolutely let you know if I need some help testing :smile:

One small comment: the name .. it is overlapping with Laravel Scout May be it makes sense to find something more unique (inspector / tracker / auditor)

stevebauman commented 4 years ago

Thanks for the suggestion, though I'm set on the name. I've already purchased logo + assets for the application that have not yet been implemented.

Okay - I've thought about this a lot @TravisWilder, and I now agree with you. I've decided to create a installable composer package and rename this application to Watchdog, instead of Scout.

I wanted to have publishable configuration files, but of course as you've mentioned, the name scout is already a package from the Laravel core (along with many other packages). This would have created conflicts and would cause this application to be hard to find in search providers (Google / Bing etc.).

I'm wanting to make this thing as flexible as possible. Having it pre-built as an application caused me issues trying to extend it, so it is going to be installable into any Laravel application, which allows it to be easily updatable using composer.

I appreciate your input!
