Jasig CAS: migrate from 3.4.8 to 3.4.10 LDAP error


Today I tried to migrate from CAS version 3.4.8 to 3.4.10 which resulted in the following error:
[/WEB-INF/deployerConfigContext.xml]: Initialization of bean failed;
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanInitializationException: Bean state is invalid: ldapTemplate - may not be null

This error was produced by the following LDAP configuration:
<bean id="authenticationHandler"
class="org.jasig.cas.adaptors.ldap.BindLdapAuthenticationHandler">
<property name="filter" value="sAMAccountName=%u" />
<property name="searchBase" value="ou=xxx,dc=xxx,dc=xxx" />
<property name="contextSource" ref="contextSource" />
<property name="ignorePartialResultException" value="yes" />
</bean>
Despite that the error message suggests something different, there is no need to add a ldapTemplate property but duplicate the contextSource and rename it to searchContextSource
<bean id="authenticationHandler"
class="org.jasig.cas.adaptors.ldap.BindLdapAuthenticationHandler">
<property name="filter" value="sAMAccountName=%u" />
<property name="searchBase" value="ou=xxx,dc=xxx,dc=xxx" />
<property name="contextSource" ref="contextSource" />
<property name="searchContextSource" ref="contextSource" />
<property name="ignorePartialResultException" value="yes" />
</bean>
And now its working again!
