 * Hello.
 * I’ve inherited a site that is set up to use LDAP for authentication via Authorizer,
   but it doesn’t seem to be working. I am not seeing LDAPS requests from the site
   on my AD server. Is there any debugging or logging available from this plugin?
   Trying to diagnose the issue, but can’t seem to find what it’s doing.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@scottjl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scottjl/) there are a few places
   you can check on this.
 * First, make sure that the correct information is entered in the Authorizer plugin
   settings under the External Service tab.
 * Also, please make sure that your AD server is configured to allow requests from
   the webserver that the WordPress instance is installed on.
 * Additionally, you can add some logging statements in the plugin around [https://github.com/uhm-coe/authorizer/blob/master/src/authorizer/class-authentication.php#L168](https://github.com/uhm-coe/authorizer/blob/master/src/authorizer/class-authentication.php#L168)
   or [https://github.com/uhm-coe/authorizer/blob/master/src/authorizer/class-authentication.php#L501](https://github.com/uhm-coe/authorizer/blob/master/src/authorizer/class-authentication.php#L501)
   to get logging information.
 * Please see [https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-log.php](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-log.php)
   for more information on logging errors in PHP.
