Just putting this out there, today I updated one of my dokuwiki site from hogfather to kaos. This particular site uses authldap for authentication.
To do so I went though the usual process of updating all my plugins, then template and finally upgrading using the upgrade plugin.
Of course doing this process generated some errors, mostly due to caching. So I cleared the cache directory to purge the entire cache and force it to rebuild.
After I was done, I refreshed the site and noticed that it suddenly became all public. And I could no longer access the administration page.
Anyway, after some investigation, I noticed that the setting useacl
was turned off. By that I mean it was no longer present in my conf/local.php file as $conf['useacl'] = 1;
Not sure but I suspect that at some point the default value must have been changed.
