Hello everybody!

I try to configure Active Directory authentication on our local instance.  So far, I got the authentication to work using direct binding.  I have these options in the auth_conf.xml :

            <allow-register>No</allow-register>

            <auto-register>Yes</auto-register>

            <server>ldap:/REDACTED /</server>

            <bind-user>{username}@REDACTED</bind-user>

            <bind-password>{password}</bind-password>

            <continue-on-failure>False</continue-on-failure>

            <auto-register-username>{sAMAccountName}</auto-register-username>

            <login-use-username>True</login-use-username>

            <auto-register-email>{mail}</auto-register-email>

Paster.log:

galaxy.auth.providers.ldap_ad DEBUG 2015-09-03 11:26:20,158 LDAP authenticate: whoami is u:REDACTED\GagnonY

galaxy.auth.providers.ldap_ad DEBUG 2015-09-03 11:26:20,159 LDAP authentication successful

However, the authentication module does not seem to be able to fetch information from LDAP to auto register

With these settings, I get the debug message in galaxy when I try to log in :

  return str(d[k]).format(**params)

KeyError: 'mail'

So for some reason, the module cannot fetch the mail field from AD.  If I try to bypass this by putting a harcoded email, same issue occurs with sAMAccountName field.  Did anybody encounter this before? 

Thanks in advance for the help.
