Topic on Extension talk:PluggableAuth

I have had LDAP configured and working for many years, using older versions of the plugins where the config was in the LocalSettings.php file. I'm finding this is now broken with the current MediaWiki update and am trying to update the extensions for PluggableAuth and the LDAPStack. I actually tried this once before and gave up, but that appears no longer to be an option.

I am working from the manual and have created the JSON file, which I believe is correct. At this point I am getting an error when loading the site that indicates the following:

[42210a3c72f542b606307239] / TypeError: PluggableAuthHooks::doBeforeInitialize(): Argument #6 ($mw) must be of type MediaWiki, MediaWiki\Actions\ActionEntryPoint given, called in c:\pathto\mediawiki\includes\HookContainer\HookContainer.php on line 159

Backtrace:

#5 c:\pathto\mediawiki\index.php(58): MediaWiki\MediaWikiEntryPoint->run()

As you can infer, I am on Windows and IIS. Happy to provide any other info about the config if needed. Would genuinely appreciate any help.

Hello,

In my case I got this same error message & stack just after upgrade MediaWiki from 1.41.2 to 1.42.1 (there are few minutes).

I downloaded latest version of PluggableAuth: Extension:PluggableAuth for my current MediaWiki version (1.42).

Remove previous extension install dir. : $MW_HOME/extensions/PluggableAuth

And extract archive in this extension directory: $MW_HOME/extensions/

And now it is work again perfectly.

I hope this solution can you help you.

Regards,

Thank you very much for replying. I am also updating to 1.42.1. I was downloading updates from MediaWiki plugin page and I was able to determine that there was a different version on the linked page for direct downloads. After downloading from there and getting version 7.1.0, the error went away and I was able to login.
