When reporting an error, please be sure to include version information for MediaWiki and all relevant extensions as well as configuration information. Also, please turn on debug logging as described at Manual:How to debug#Logging and include the relevant portions of the debug log.

i have windows server 2016, MediaWiki 1.41.1, PHP 8.3.4, mysql 8.3.0, PluggableAuth 7.1.0, OpenID Connect 8.0.1

when i attempt to log in, i get the redirect to the microsoft page, enter my creds, confirm via authenticator app on my phone and am presented with the following error:

Message: AADSTS50011: The redirect URI 'https://raawiki.acme.org/RAAWIKI/index.php?title=Special:PluggableAuthLogin' specified in the request does not match the redirect URIs configured for the application '6856ee73-9078-420f-a7af-b2da67a686dc'. Make sure the redirect URI sent in the request matches one added to your application in the Azure portal. Navigate to https://aka.ms/redirectUriMismatchError to learn more about how to fix this.

the URI in AZURE AD has been set to https://raawiki.acme.org/RAAWIKI/index.php/Special:PluggableAuthLogin

all i'm trying to do at this point is test the log in.

my pluggableauth log shows...

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! that helped tremendously!!!

For others that will come here searching for answers if you also have a similar set up as me:

For IIS, if you dont already have it, install PHP Manager and URL Rewrite for IIS Manager. They are incredibly helpful

Your web.config file in your wiki project root folder will work with URL Rewrite, so it'll be easier to configure that file.

mine, for example, was :

<rule name="Short Wiki URLs" stopProcessing="true">

<match url="^acme/index\.php/(.+)$" />

<action type="Rewrite" url="acme/index.php?title={R:1}" />

</rule>

the following were added to my LocalSettings:

$wgArticlePath = "/acme/index.php/$1";

$wgUsePathInfo = true;

HOPE THAT HELPS OTHERS AS IT DID ME!

switched from using ldap to azure/entra and oidc

i've hit a wall trying to set up authentication using LDAP and am curious which is easier to set up and maintain between the two

i have MediaWiki 1.41.0, PHP 8.3.3 on Windows Server 2016 ( i know, its old), with IIS 10

just curious what peoples thoughts are, thanks for any feedback

is https://composer.wikimedia.org down right now?

SELinux was preventing httpd from communicating with the Azure endpoint on port 443, producing a curl error in the openid-connect-php client.

I'm trying to set up Azure Entra ID login. Right now instead of sending me to Azure I get "Fatal error authenticating user." I double-checked my providerURL and it seems to be correct. Any idea where I'm going wrong? I keep getting <abusefilter-warning-linkspam> when posting this, so I had to strip out some information.

Curl error 7 is "could not connect to host". Why are there <nowiki> tags in your provider URL?

Sorry, didn't realize those tags were in there. They're not in the actual LocalSettings.php. I confirmed that provider URL matches the OpenID Connect metadata document URL from the Azure portal, minus /.well-known/openid-configuration

I would check to see if you can successfully execute `curl https://login.microsoftonline.com/930d382e-dc17-46c9-a847-e0eb41cc16f7/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration` from the command line on your wiki server. It seems to be accessible for me, so if you cannot, it would be an issue on your server or its environment.

I am able to access that from the command line. Here's a more complete copy of my logs: https://gist.github.com/escarlson/b53d2d8ba98a1be5d5d2da8fe582e374

I would guess that the issue has to do with your PHP curl installation. The error is generated at https://github.com/jumbojett/OpenID-Connect-PHP/blob/v0.9.10/src/OpenIDConnectClient.php#L1495 as a result of the call to `curl_exec` at https://github.com/jumbojett/OpenID-Connect-PHP/blob/v0.9.10/src/OpenIDConnectClient.php#L1488. I do not believe the issue is in the code, since that bit is heavily exercised.

Discovered it was being blocked by SELinux. setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1 fixed it.

I had a couple questions regarding usernames:

First, I've been using $wgOpenIDConnect_UseRealNameAsUserName set to 'true' for a wiki and am wondering if the 'real name' that is provided by the issuer changes in the future, will the username in MediaWiki be updated to reflect that change?

And I'm considering changing to use the 'email name' for the username instead, but simply setting $wgOpenIDConnect_UseEmailNameAsUserName to 'true' instead of the 'real name' option doesn't seem to update the username on subsequent logins. Is there a way to do that? Thanks!

The username config variables are only used when the account is initially created. The username will not change automatically when the real name changes or if you switch to a different username source. You would have to use another extension (e.g. Extension:UserMerge) to manually rename the accounts.

I have a problem using this with PluggableAuth.

This is in my LocalSettings.php:

wfLoadExtension( 'PluggableAuth' );

wfLoadExtension( 'OpenIDConnect' );

$wgPluggableAuth_Config[] = [

    'plugin' => 'OpenIDConnect',

    'data' => [

        'providerURL' => 'URL....',

        'clientID' => client....',

        'clientsecret' => 'secret....',

        'scope' => [ 'openid', 'roster-core.readonly' ],

        'responseType' => 'code'

    ]

];

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['autocreateaccount'] = true;

$wgPluggableAuth_EnableAutoLogin = false;

$wgPluggableAuth_EnableFastLogout = true;

$wgDebugLogFile = "debug-{$wgDBname}.log";

$wgDebugLogGroups['PluggableAuth'] = "pluggableauth.log";

$wgDebugLogGroups['OpenIDConnect'] = "openidconnect.log";

$wgDebugLogGroups['http'] = 'http.log';

My Wiki only shows fatal error but in the pluggableauth.log i find the following:

2023-12-31 12:02:48 v2202311158332242983 WU8900: In execute() 2023-12-31 12:02:48 v2202311158332242983 WU8900: Getting PluggableAuth instance 2023-12-31 12:02:48 v2202311158332242983 WU8900: Could not get authentication plugin instance. 2023-12-31 12:02:49 v2202311158332242983 WU8900: ERROR: return to URL is null or empty

which indicates for me, that the error must come from PluggableAuthFactory.php line 190:

if ( $name !== null && isset( $this->pluggableAuthConfig[$name] ) ) {...}

$this->logger->debug( 'Could not get authentication plugin instance.' );

return null;

So it seems to me, that it does not detect the Config correctly, but i don't know that is wrong. I ran the php update and composer update....

Can someone provide some help for me?

Is this extension when used with google safe from the attack mentioned at https://trufflesecurity.com/blog/google-oauth-is-broken-sort-of/ ?

It does not do anything past what the Google identity provider provides, so out of the box it would be vulnerable. However, PluggableAuth can be extended with an authorization plugin that could do a local check to ensure that the account is valid for use.

@Cindy.cicalese Hi, from -> this diff can we please reformulate the loop in the sentence "preferred_username — ... defaults to 'preferred_username' ..." ? Thanks. --Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 10:46, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

I tried to elaborate a bit on it. It isn't really a loop. The default value for 'preferred_username' really is the string 'preferred_username', which is the name of an attribute that contains the preferred username. I'm not sure if the additional words make that any clearer.

Can i get the steps required to setup openidconnect with mediawiki .

Also my mediawiki user database currently has only default users , how can i automate user creation or login ?
