11,270 PointsLDAP authentication with Laravel 5
Hi,
I really need your help. I'm trying to connect my laravel 5 project with Active directory, but I'm getting error message: "BadMethodCallException in Validator.php line 2615: Method [validateName] does not exist.".
This is my steps:
I'm using ccovey/ldap-auth so I install them by typing composer require "ccovey/ldap-auth": "1.1.*"
Open config/app.php and find Illuminate\Auth\AuthServiceProvider and replace it with Ccovey\LdapAuth\LdapAuthServiceProvider
Edit auth.php file by changing driver to ldap and add 'username_field' => 'fieldname'
Creating adldap.php file (I changed real names to example, com, name and password for security purposes):
<?php
return [
'account_suffix' => "@example.com",
'domain_controllers' => array("dc1.example.com"), // An array of domains may be provided for load balancing.
'base_dn' => 'DC=example,DC=com',
'admin_username' => 'name',
'admin_password' => 'password',
'real_primary_group' => true, // Returns the primary group (an educated guess).
'use_ssl' => false, // If TLS is true this MUST be false.
'use_tls' => false, // If SSL is true this MUST be false.
'recursive_groups' => true,
];
I have connected to mssql database and have user table migration (if it's needed for authentication?)
In routes.php :
<?php
Route::post('authenticate_user', array('as'=>'auth_user',
'uses'=>'HomeController@authenticateUser'));
Route::controllers([
'auth' => 'Auth\AuthController',
'password' => 'Auth\PasswordController',
]);
WHAT I'VE MISSED? HELP! Thank you :)

22,986 PointsHow are you getting on with this one? A bad method call would suggest you're trying to call something that doesn't exist. Is the validator in your error message the Illuminate Validator or an additional service?
