Yeah the plugin needs to be properly configured before starting it. But looks like that fails too https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1947469. Once 1947469 is fixed, this should go away once the order in the docs is switched from: # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://userdir.example.com plugin pass-through-auth enable # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://userdir.example.com plugin pass-through-auth url add "ldap://authdir.example.com/o=RedHat" to: # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://userdir.example.com plugin pass-through-auth url add "ldap://authdir.example.com/o=RedHat" # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://userdir.example.com plugin pass-through-auth enable *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1947469 *** |
Description of problem: If RHDS plugins can be enabled dynamically ( "nsslapd-dynamic-plugins" is set to "on" ), then the PTA plugin cannot be enabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.3 (Ootpa) # # rpm -qa | grep 389-ds-base-1 389-ds-base-1.4.3.13-1.module+el8dsrv+8334+69a46a2e.x86_64 # How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable the dynamic behavior of the plugins: # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://localhost:10389 config replace nsslapd-dynamic-plugins=on Enter password for cn=Directory Manager on ldap://localhost:10389: Successfully replaced "nsslapd-dynamic-plugins" # # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://localhost:10389 config get nsslapd-dynamic-plugins Enter password for cn=Directory Manager on ldap://localhost:10389: nsslapd-dynamic-plugins: on # 2. Try to enable the Pass Through Authentication plugin: # dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://localhost:10389 plugin pass-through-auth enable Enter password for cn=Directory Manager on ldap://localhost:10389: Error: Server is unwilling to perform - Failed to start plugin "Pass Through Authentication". See errors log. # 3. The first step in the documentation is to enable the plugin: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/11/html/administration_guide/using_the_pass_through_authentication_plug_in But since the configuration is not complete yet, the dynamic reloading is triggering an error. From the errors log: ========================================================= [08/Apr/2021:12:59:27.459036702 +0200] - ERR - passthru-plugin - passthru_config - No pass through servers found in configuration (at least one must be listed) [08/Apr/2021:12:59:27.461409111 +0200] - ERR - passthru-plugin - passthru_bindpreop_start - Configuration failed (Bad parameter to an ldap routine) [08/Apr/2021:12:59:27.463601582 +0200] - ERR - plugin_start - Failed to start preoperation plugin Pass Through Authentication ========================================================= Actual results: Failing to enable the PTA plugin. Expected results: Enable successfully the PTA plugin. Additional info:
