alfresco ldap integration issue-help?

smkhawaja — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 12:27:01 GMT

Hi guys,I am using alfresco-community-war-3.2r2 with tomcat6 on Centos5.4. Alfresco is working fine as war file on tomcat but when I try to integrate it with our existing ldap server its not working. I need to ask two things?1. I cant find any alfresco.log fine. Should it be created by default ?2. M

You're using the security authentication as "simple"

ldap.authentication.java.naming.security.authentication=simple

and the authentication user Name Format as "%s"

ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=%s

look this comment present in config file

# How to map the user id entered by the user to taht passed through to LDAP
# - simple
#    - this must be a DN and would be something like
#      uid=%s,ou=People,dc=company,dc=com
# - digest
#    - usually pass through what is entered
#      %s

look this example to an LDAP ou=alfresco,dc=intranet

smkhawaja,

in first post you write

I read from few forums and again I created a soft link of /opt/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/subsystems in /opt/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems

# ll /opt/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alfresco alfresco 64 Feb 22 11:05 /opt/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems -> /opt/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/subsystems

when you do it, the configuration file will be present just in WEB-INF. It's not a good idea. So, if you redeploy it, you loose your configs.

below i'm write singles steps to you try to config alfresco with LDAP.

1) create the folder directory hierarchy

<ALFRESCO_HOME>/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems/Authentication/ldap/ldap1

          when ldap1 is just a name. you can change it.

2) create the file ldap-authentication.properties inside ldap1

3) open the alfresco-global.properties configuration file and locate the line

#authentication.chain=alfrescoNtlm1:alfrescoNtlm‍

4) uncomment and change it to

authentication.chain=ldap1:ldap,alfrescoNtlm1:alfrescoNtlm‍

Note that the ldap1:ldap is authentication folder : authentication type, so it provide many configurations from many LDAPs doing chain. In this configuration alfresco will try to authenticate in ldap if it is not possible the authentication will be done in alfrescoNtlm (default alfresco users)

try it and give us your feed back.

Bundle of thanks for your reply.

I followed the steps as you mentioned. I can see in catalina.out that [/opt/alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems/Authentication/ldap/ldap1/ldap-authentication.properties]
is being read at the time of tomcat start. but there are couple of errors now and I am still unable to authenticate users.

The itlatic+bold area in log i know the modules are missing, for the time being can I comment them not to be load at startup?
Secondly the Auth and Syn errors are very cleared in log.

Any idea how to solve this issue?
Many thanks.

Re: alfresco ldap integration issue-help?

gsdenys — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 14:48:58 GMT

So,

Verify the LDAP log while during alfresco initiation and when you try to authenticate, maybe alfresco is doing any search. If alfresco did the research but did not return result, then the error is in the string of search. if it's right you can try use a terminal to verify if the better way to return resoult from an ldap search. To do it you can use the ldapsearch command

If none resount are registered in ldap log, then verify if your machine have access to ldap server.

any doubt ask

Thanks gsdenys,

Doesn't this show that authentication was ok?

16:14:33,893 ERROR [org.alfresco.fileserver] (This may be due to firewall settings or incorrect <broadcast> setting)

is there any application log like alfresco.log where i can get a proper error? Do you think the problem is with "ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid\=%s,ou\=alfresco,dc\=companyname,dc\=local"

I have tried with this
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid\=%s@companyname.local

All I am digging if this is the point? As its mentioned failed to get local domain/group name, using default workgroup ….

16:14:33,893 ERROR [org.alfresco.fileserver] Failed to get local domain/workgroup name, using default of WORKGROUP
16:14:33,893 ERROR [org.alfresco.fileserver] (This may be due to firewall settings or incorrect <broadcast> setting)

Can we do this in parts? like first authentication, once this goes fine then synchronization? what do you say?

I have seen no issue with connecting to port 389 to the ldap server
opt]# telnet 192.168.8.10 389
Trying 192.168.8.10…
Connected to svr-file-04.dare.local (192.168.8.10).

Re: alfresco ldap integration issue-help?

smkhawaja — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 17:48:19 GMT

Hi gsdenys,

I am able to connect from that server to ldap server with the following command

# ldapsearch -x -b "dc=companyname,dc=local" -D "cn=SVC_ALF,ou=alfresco,dc=companyname,dc=local" -h 192.168.8.10 -p 389 -W > test.txt
Enter LDAP Password:

I double checked it from LDAP server - user was authenticated.

Does this make any sense?

Please let me know if we can dig it out and fix it

Thanks again.

Soh

it's error is not part of LDAP, but CIFIS error, you can disable CIFIS inserting the line


  cifs.enabled=false
‍‍‍

in your alfresco-global.properties]

or config it in <tomcat_home>/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/subsystems/fileServers/default/file-servers.properties, again, you'll be setting inside webapps, so try to copy the directory hierarchy into <ALFRESCO_HOME>/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/ as done in LDAP config.

about ldapsearch command, don't worry, I just wonder if your LDAP was correct.

What should i do next to make it working?

Re: alfresco ldap integration issue-help?

smkhawaja — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 12:08:43 GMT

Lets take in this way to troubleshoot where exactly the issue is ??

I have disabled the following in "/opt/alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems/Authentication/ldap/ldap1/ldap-authentication.properties" file
ldap.synchronization.active=false

For me I think when tomcat restart it loads the same file and get the Authentication complete messages.

11:47:13,020 INFO [alfresco.config.JndiPropertiesFactoryBean] Loading properties file from file [/opt/alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems/Authentication/ldap/ldap1/ldap-authentication.properties]

When I stop tomcat I see the following messages in log

12:02:19,160 INFO [management.subsystems.ChildApplicationContextFactory] Stopping 'Authentication' subsystem, ID: [Authentication, managed, ldap1]
12:02:19,160 INFO [management.subsystems.ChildApplicationContextFactory] Stopped 'Authentication' subsystem, ID: [Authentication, managed, ldap1]

Is there a way I can get debug log like when i enter user-name/password in alfresco home page what happens exactly? Can we configure a log like that? I have seen many comments on alfresco.log but in my system I can't find alfresco.log. Any help with this?

Any idea to solve this issue will highly be appreciated.

Re: alfresco ldap integration issue-help?

smkhawaja — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 12:30:38 GMT

After reading different question/answers on alfresco forums so far I have tried the following options but no luck 😞

#ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid\=%s
#ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid\=%s@companyname.local
#ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=uid\=%s,ou\=alfresco,dc\=companyname,dc\=local
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=CN=tlr\%s,ou\=alfresco,dc\=companyname,dc\=local

Any help??

Re: alfresco ldap integration issue-help?

smkhawaja — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 15:49:16 GMT

I have fixed it with

ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=CN=%s,ou=alfresco,dc=dare,dc=local

Thanks to all
