Putting a harmless command on the server
C:\temp>c:\programme\php\php.exe c:\www\ai2t-de\egroupware\admin\admin-cli.php
–exit-codes egw_administrator,hisPassword
has two effects:
- The command is rejected even if egw_administrator,hisPassword are 100% correct.
“Wrong admin-account or -password”
- Afterwards online authentication of ALL users (not only egw_administrator) get
rejected by an error
"… redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete."
Its 1.6 on windows Server 2003 on Apache 2.2.15 (Collabnet) and PHP 5.
…/egroupware/… is forced to https (443) and the authentication is http (hence
Apache accounts).
The assumption of EGroupware not knowing the password (due to http authentication) and
re-entering the password to the EGW-user “egw_administrator” was no remedy.
Probably I did something wrong in my (first) attempt to use the administrative CLI.
But anyway, in my opinion effect 2 is a bug.
