My company has decided to use an LDAP server for authentication of
internal applications and we decided to go with Apache Directory Server.
I adjusted one of our applications to use the server for authentication
via a JNDIRealm on Tomcat. As I developed and tested these changes, I
would occasionally see 'ERR_732 Cannot process a Request while binding'
but it usually only occurred right after I restarted the server, so I
didn't think much of it. The server is now in use and the issue has been
appearing sporadically for many employees. I have googled like crazy but
I cannot find any cause for this issue that applies to our application.
Here is the JNDI Realm that I am using:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context reloadable="true" >
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.LdapJdbcRealm"
debug="99"
resourceName="LDAP Auth"
connectionName="xxxx"
connectionPassword="xxxx"
connectionURL="xxxx"
alternateURL="xxxx"
driverName="xxxx"
userPattern="uid={0}, xxxx, xxxx"
dbConnectionName="xxxx"
dbConnectionPassword="xxxx"
dbConnectionURL="xxxx"
userRoleTable="xxxx"
roleNameCol="xxxx"
userTable="xxxx"
userNameCol="xxxx"/>
</Context>
And the authentication does work often so I know these settings, for the
most part, must be correct. Have any other users encountered a similar
issue? Any help would be appreciate, thanks.
