Description Michel Smidt 2016-09-30 13:51:35 CEST

The method guess_ad_domain_language() in /branches/ucs-4.1/ucs-4.1-3/services/univention-ad-connector/umc/python/adconnector/__init__.py set english ('en') as the AD language fall back. If the adsearch leads to an error or the output can't be parsed 'en' will be set for connector/ad/mapping/group/language.

Under some circumstance (e.g. in combination with bug #36354) it leads to an incorrect mapping for Domain Users/Domänen Benutzer in an german 'de' Active-Directory.

Bug #36354 is fixed, the connector now looks for the binddn in AD. With a correct binddn univention-adsearch should work and guess_ad_domain_language too (the initial problem was an incorrect binddn, which broke univention-adsearch and therefor guess_ad_domain_language).

I think there is nothing more that can be done here.
