Summary: ldap_simple_bind fails with "Can't contact LDAP
server" when using ldaps on OpenLDAP
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.54
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2

Hi,
When enabling ldaps for basic auth on a virtual host, I get these errors:
[Sat Feb 25 15:41:29.574636 2023] [authnz_ldap:debug] [pid 96357:tid
123171499845376] mod_authnz_ldap.c(548): [client 10.0.0.12:54546] AH01691:
auth_ldap authenticate: using URL
ldaps://ldap.hostname/ou=users,dc=domain,dc=org?uid?sub?(objectClass=posixAccount)
[Sat Feb 25 15:41:29.612716 2023] [authnz_ldap:info] [pid 96357:tid
123171499845376] [client 10.0.0.12:54546] AH01695: auth_ldap authenticate: user
REDACTED authentication failed; URI / [LDAP: ldap_simple_bind() failed][Can't
contact LDAP server]
This is the config snippet:
<Location />
AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthLDAPURL
ldaps://ldap.hostname/ou=users,dc=domain,dc=org?uid?sub?(objectClass=posixAccount)
#AuthLDAPRemoteUserAttribute cn
AuthLDAPInitialBindAsUser on
AuthLDAPInitialBindPattern (.+) cn=$1,ou=users,dc=domain,dc=org
Require valid-user
</Location>
When I use ldap:// scheme instead of ldaps, it works as expected.
The hostname ldap.hostname is defined in /etc/hosts and resolves to 127.0.0.1.
When I try to connect locally with ldapsearch using ldaps:// URI it works too,
be it with ldaps://ldap.hostname/ or ldaps://127.0.0.1/
$ ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldap.hostname/ -b "ou=users,dc=domain,dc=org" -D
"cn=webserver,ou=users,dc=domain,dc=org" -W "(objectClass=posixAccount)"
...
# search result
search: 3
result: 0 Success
When stracing the Apache processes, I see a few occurrences of these:
[pid 96407] connect(45, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(636),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, 16) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in
progress)
[pid 96407] poll([{fd=45, events=POLLOUT|POLLERR|POLLHUP}], 1, 10000) = 1
([{fd=45, revents=POLLOUT}])
[pid 96407] getpeername(45, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(636),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [128->16]) = 0
[pid 96407] fcntl(45, F_GETFL) = 0x802 (flags O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK)
[pid 96407] fcntl(45, F_SETFL, O_RDWR) = 0
[pid 96407] shutdown(45, SHUT_RDWR) = 0
[pid 96407] close(45) = 0
I'm using Debian version 2.4.54-1~deb11u1 of Apache2 server.
Any ideas on what I could have missed here?
Thank you!
