- removed deprecated egw_db->Halt_On_Error handling in favor of just exceptions
- added a couple of exceptions extending egw_exception_db to be able to detect different problem areas
- fixed setup to use / catch exceptions
- new egw_exception_db_setup displays link to setup below exception message, to cope with no longer allowed html in exception messages
- calling static methods static: accounts::cache_invalidate() or egw::invalidate_session_cache()
- fixed wrong number of deleted items in setup_cmd_ldap sub-comand=delete_ldap
- only use create, if we have an ldap_admin_pw set
- call an add_account hook for each created account, if specified (not by default)
installation time --> nice user experience and cleaner look (by hiding
exotic prefs by focing them to a usual value):
- settings returned from settings hook can contain values for keys
'default' or 'forced'
- if settings hook require part of api or application, which are not
available during installation time: use a method hook (instead of
an old $app/inc/hook_settings.inc.php file), and check if
$hook_param['setup'] is true
- default prefs created so far in setup/admin_account.php got removed
- common prefs in preferences_hooks::settings() got reworked to set
default and forced prefs
- calendar prefs in calendar_hooks::settings() got reworked to set
default and forced prefs
--> I will rework prefs of all our (default) applications according to a
best practice list of Stylite consultants
- new feature allowing apps to specify with index-page and icon to use
--> allows to install sitemgr-link icon without an extra application
(which was a symlink and got lost in every version upgrade)
- acl of the anon user gets now set correct
- nopasswordchange ACL for groups get no longer set
- nopasswordchange ACL for user gets only set to 1 (no 0), as in admin
- retired the modifiy script as it's no longer necessary
- removed references and translations of the old scripts
- removed ldap version 3 switch from config
- new cleaner AND documented interfaces
- old interfaces are still availible, but depricated
- LDAP backend stores now membership information in LDAP too, and does NO longer require the phpgwAccount schema
- LDAP backend deals now well with LDAP schema in which posixGroup is no structural object (eg. newer SuSE distros)
- password from users are done now binded as that user, so if you dont need/use our admin to manage accounts, you can give a root-dn which only allows to search&read accounts
