Problem with configuration LDAP autentication for JasperReports Server Community Project 5.5.0 Release

[raffaele.milan]

After I have copied and renamed the file sample-applicationContext-externalAuth-LDAP.xml (renamed without prefix sample), I write the external.ldapUrl property like this :

<bean id="ldapContextSource" class="com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.security.externalAuth.ldap.JSLdapContextSource">
        <constructor-arg value="ldap://hostname-ldap-db:389/o=System CC,c=It"/>

After restarting  the Jasper Server, the error Apache Tomcat 404 occurs, are ther any problem with my base DN (o=System CC,c=I)?

The users properties by query ldap are : ou=users,o=System CC,c=It

Thank you for your help in advance

Hy All,

In the catalina.out I've found this error:

2014-09-02 09:17:14,931 ERROR ContextLoader,localhost-startStop-1:307 - Context initialization failed

I had the same problem. I found the solution in this post: https://communities.coverity.com/thread/1947 .

You must replace the blanks in the DN of the URL of the ldap-server in the bean "ldapContextSource" in your applicationContext-externalAuth-LDAP.xml. So it looks like this: 

 <bean id="ldapContextSource" class="com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.security.externalAuth.ldap.JSLdapContextSource">

        <constructor-arg value="ldap://<server>:389/dc=<example>,dc=de"/>

        <property name="userDn" value="cn=<user>,ou=<usergroup>,dc=<example>,dc=de"/>

        <property name="password" value="<password>"/>

    </bean>

 

I hope this helps you.

Hi,

      I had the same problem,But I configured it.There's a simple solution.change the bean class to default class.

change 

 <bean id="ldapContextSource" class="com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.security.externalAuth.ldap.JSLdapContextSource">

to

<bean id="ldapContextSource" class="org.springframework.security.ldap.DefaultSpringSecurityContextSource">

Tell me If you need more assistance.
