Hari Sekhon updated RANGER-217:
-------------------------------
Description:
When configuring ranger-admin to use LDAPS it seems to not be supported or
breaks with incorrect error.
In install.properties
{code}xa_ldap_url="ldaps://host.domain.com:636"{code}
While attempting to log in to ranger admin web ui,
/var/log/ranger/admin/xa_portal.log shows: {code}2015-01-13 15:54:34,522
[http-bio-6080-exec-3] INFO com.xasecure.security.listener.SpringEventListener
(SpringEventListener.java:87) - Login Unsuccessful:hari | Ip Address:x.x.x.x |
Bad Credentials
{code} I could understand if this is because my LDAPS server uses a self-signed
cert and I need to supply a trusted CA cert but I can't see any setting for
that or find any documentation around Apache Ranger LDAPS. (I use this LDAPS
server with trusted CA cert elsewhere so I know it works)
That Bad Credentials error is clearly wrong because redeploying ranger-admin
using straight LDAP allows login to succeed with the same password:
{code}xa_ldap_url="ldap://host.domain.com:389"{code}
However it's insecure to only work with plain LDAP.
Required fixes:
1. Add LDAPS support + document
2. Fix error message to be accurate to the problem
