Description Miguel Martin 2019-03-14 13:18:17 UTC

Description of problem:

When AAA connects to the LDAP server to find the principal name or the groups the user belongs to and authenticates itself using Kerberos/GSSAPI there is no way to enable the debug mode. 

The only option is to edit the 'ovirt-engine.xml.in' file but there is no way to make extensions tool to work.

It would be great to have the possibility of enabling the debug mode in a simple way.

Please hold on, I figured out how to enable this using configuration variables only

Comment 2 Miguel Martin 2019-04-01 12:08:36 UTC

Ok, the configuration variables apply to the extensions tool only, not the engine, so I think this patch would be needed.

Comment 4 Pavel Novotny 2020-04-24 12:39:11 UTC

Verified in ovirt-engine-4.4.0-0.33.master.el8ev.
