I'm trying to configure LDAP authentication against a local LDAP server (same machine). I get the following error:
Unable to connect (can't convert Net::LDAP::LdapError into String)
I find no indication that a connection is being made neither in the redmine logs (I enabled debug logging) nor in the syslog (where slapd logs to). I also tried monitoring the packets going over the lo interface. I see traffic when I access ldap using other services, but not redmine. Here is my configuration (excluding the domain):
Name Redmine LDAP
Host localhost
Port 389 LDAPS No
Account cn=admin,dc=myrealdomain,dc=com
Password *****
Base DN ou=people,dc=myrealdomain,dc=com
On-the-fly user creation No
Attributes
Login uid
Firstname givenName
Lastname sn
Email mail
I'm using OpenLDAP server on Ubuntu 8.04.03 LTS. Here are the details on my environment:
