Has anyone managed to get the Custom Seraph Authenticator to work for Confluence 4.0?

[Scott Faller]

The following wiki contains information about a custom siteminder Seraph Authenticator for Confluence 2.1.3

http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DEV/SiteMinder+Custom+Seraph+Authenticator+for+Confluence

Will this work for the latest current version, Confluence 4.0?

[Joe Clark · Accepted solution]

Seraph hasn't changed very much in recent years, so custom authenticators shoud, for the most part, continue to work across Confluence versions.

The only major change in recent history was in Confluence 3.5 - since we introduced totally revamped LDAP support in this release, the user mangement API changed quite a bit. This introduced some breaking changes when it comes to adding new users or trying to modify user properties.

If you encounter any specific problems with changes in the user management API - please post them here and we can work out the details of what you need to change.

Hi Joseph, are there any API changes in Confluence 5 ? I'm trying to set up Confluence 5 with Jasig CAS client 3.3 built from sources which supports Confluence 3.5 changes, but having no luck so far.

[Joe Clark]

Hi,

There were some changes required for Confluence 4.1 compatibility. I believe that the Jasig CAS client was updated for these changes, so you should make sure that you are using the latest available version.

Can you please help us to resolve the issue ?

[Jean de Laulanié]

Hi there,

there is an updated version of that Siteminder connector here compatible with Confluence 3.5 (and the revamped LDAP part) so should work with Confluence 4 (though i haven't tested it yet).

Actually, I'd interested to know if you used that connector with a previous version of Confluence, I've used with 2.10.x but could not make it work succesfully with 3.3.x

regards,
