Question

Hi everbody,

users are authorised to access the TWiki with the help of Apache and mod_auth_ldap.

I added these lines to the htaccess-file.

AuthType Basic
AuthAuthoritative Off
LDAP_Server ldap.server.ttt.de
LDAP_Port 389
Base_DN "OU=..."
Bind_DN "CN=..."
Bind_Pass "secret"
UID_Attr mailNickname
require filter "(memberOf=CN=...)

So, frankly speaking everything seems to work fine, everyone belonging to a specific group within the LDAP directory can login and has access to the wiki.

However, every time a page is accessed, the following lines will be added to the error log of my apache server which makes m a little nervous.

[Tue Aug 15 17:26:29 2006] [error] [client ...] (PID: 22512) mod_auth_ldap.c (1249) - Warning: bind with DN "CN=..." and password (not shown) did not succeed, referer: http://server/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome %BR%
[Tue Aug 15 17:26:29 2006] [error] [client ...] (PID: 22512) mod_auth_ldap.c (1259) - cr->ld=224511, 
referer: http://server/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome

So, is anything going into a wrong direction in general or what exactly are these error line about?

Thanks for any ideas! Alex

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

Not sure if this helps, but see related LDAP info at Tag:ldap (especially LdapAuthenticationHowTo).
