Cannot login to Phabricator (LDAP error)

I have never been able to login to Phabricator at all (and thus cannot report this problem there). I always get the following LDAP error:

Unhandled Exception ("Exception")
LDAP record query returned more than one result. The query must uniquely identify a record.

at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/auth/login/ldap:self/ after trying the login form from any URL that generates one (e.g. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/).

I get other auth-related problems on various WMF sites. E.g., here, right now, I see that I am logged in as SMcCandlish up top, but I also have a blue warning banner above this post reading "You are not logged in. To receive attribution with your name instead of your IP address, you can log in or create an account", and a green submit button reading "Add topic anonymously".

Same issue as T126890... The other auth problems sound unrelated.

@Andrew Bogott: I probably shouldn't mess around with LDAP accounts like this myself. Could you please figure out the correct way to resolve this?

@Krenair, Andrew Bogott: I'm still getting this problem. It's impeding things for me, since I have actual "business" on Phabricator, which has been held up ever since WMF moved everything from Toolserver and Bugzilla to Phabricator. I have no objection to my account being reset in a way that clobbers my passwords system-wide and makes me generate a new SUL password. I would not like to have my account clean-slated in a way that destroys any stats or history, though.

Anyone, anyone? Beuller, Beuller? I've asked in several more places for help with this, including the Steward username-related request page over at Meta, and everyone keeps sending me back here.  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  12:46, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

PS: I have no trouble logging into Labs, Tools, etc., just phabricator.wikimedia.org.  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  13:13, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

PPS: Since the Labs, Tools and Phabricator account is not connected to SUL, I actually don't care if my Labs/Tools/Phabricator account is totally nuked, as long as it won't perturb the SUL account I use for Wikipedia, etc. If it turns out that I somehow have two accounts in this system, the intent is for the account I use to be SMcCandlish in Mediawiki-space, and smccandlish at the shell level. If there's some bogus account like "Smccandlish" around, it can be destroyed.  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  13:17, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
