LDAP issue

[umarkhan99]

I am trying to integrate LDAP for our netbox and have followed instructions on the website.
Installed django
REMOTE_AUTH_BACKEND = 'netbox.authentication.LDAPBackend' -> configuration file
created ldap_config.py file
But unable to login "Error: Please enter a correct username and password"

I tried to enable logging by copying the following to my configuration file

LOGGING = { 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'handlers': { 'file': { 'level': 'INFO', 'class': 'logging.FileHandler', 'filename': '/var/log/netbox.log', }, }, 'loggers': { 'django': { 'handlers': ['file'], 'level': 'INFO', }, }, }

and created a /var/log/netbox.log file which doesnt populate after trying to authenticate to the site. Any help would be greatly appreciated

The logging issue might be to do with permissions. Try logging to /tmp or another directory which you create and set the ownership to match netbox.

I found an old config which I haven't used for a while:

#LOGGING = {
#    'version': 1,
#    'disable_existing_loggers': False,
#    'handlers': {
#        'file': {
#            'level': 'INFO',
#            'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
#            'filename': '/opt/netbox/log/netbox.log',
#        },
#    },
#    'loggers': {
#        'django': {
#            'handlers': ['file'],
#            'level': 'INFO',
#        },
#        'netbox': {
#            'handlers': ['file'],
#            'level': 'INFO',
#        },
#    },
#}

Still nothing....I changed permission for the log file to 777. FY I am using centos 7.9

If you have not already, try restarting the NetBox service. I'm working my way through the LDAP troubleshooting now. Also make sure the directory and file is already created. Good Luck!

Just copy this to the end or your ldap_config.py

import logging, logging.handlers
logfile = "/opt/netbox/logs/django-ldap-debug.log"
my_logger = logging.getLogger('django_auth_ldap')
my_logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
handler = logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler(
logfile, maxBytes=1024 * 500, backupCount=5)
my_logger.addHandler(handler)

Ensure the directory /opt/netbox/logs exists (it doesn't by default) and make the netbox user the owner with -> chown netbox:netbox /opt/netbox/logs

Currently I'm in the same boat, couldn't get it working but at least logging now works
