Description

Setup: Foreman using ldap integration.

To reporduce:
1. Create a user in ldap, with lastname containing special letters (latin1 danish letters æøå)
2. Try and login to foreman gui - Fails.

Workaround:
1. Change users names in ldap to only English letters.
2. Login to foreman.
3. Change users names in ldap to contain latin1 letters
4. Login to foreman.
5. Username now contains latin1 letters and is shown correctly in foreman gui.

Log when login fails:

Thanks for the bug report. I believe this has been fixed via #7548 for the upcoming Foreman 1.10.1 release - please give it a try when available, or try the nightlies.
