Installation and Upgrades / Re: eBox installation in combination with existing LDAP Server

Hi sixstone,

thank you for your hint to enable debugging and where to do it. The debugging output told me the problem:

\n$VAR1 = bless( {
                 '-stacktrace' => 'Can\'t create ldapi connection at /usr/share/perl5/EBox/Ldap.pm line 127

                 '-package' => 'EBox::Ldap'
               }, 'EBox::Exceptions::Internal' );

Now it is just working fine. I have had to adjust the settings for the constant LDAPI in the file ldap.pm.

The original line was:
use constant LDAPI         => "ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fslapd%2fldapi";

The correct one for my installation is:
use constant LDAPI         => "ldap://<IP-Adress>:389";

I know that this connection is just unsecure, but for the first tests it is absolutely ok.

It would be nice, if there would be a possibility to change the ldap-server within the ebox gui in the future.

Greetings

Installation and Upgrades / eBox installation in combination with existing LDAP Server

« on: April 16, 2009, 06:50:17 pm »

Hello,

I am trying to set up an eBox-Mailserver in combination with an existing LDAP-Server. The ebox version is 1.0 on top of a ubuntu 8.04 LTS.

I have several servers running in my network for different tasks:

server	description	ebox
pdc	openLDAP-server for authentication	no
egw	Groupware-server with the egroupware installation 1.6.0 with existing ldap connection	yes
egw-db	database-server for egroupware	no
mail	mail-server for egroupware with postfix, courier, fetchmail	yes

The servers pdc, egw and egw-db are already running. Now I have just started with the mail-server and try to setup the userandgroups-module with the existing ldap-server. I have already tried to change the values in the sourcecode and yes, I know that these changes will be overwritten by an update:

File ldap.pm:
use constant DN            => "dc=domain";
use constant LDAP          => "ldap://ip-adress of mail";

File UsersandGroups.pm:
use constant USERSDN        => 'ou=users';
use constant GROUPSDN       => 'ou=groups';

I have changed the password in /var/lib/ebox/conf/ebox-ldap.passwd to the correct one.

When I try to edit a user the result is:

An internal error has ocurred. This is most probably a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs.
An internal error related to a template has occurred. This is a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs.

When I try to edit groups the result is:

An internal error has ocurred. This is most probably a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs.

Further information:

• There is no firewall or something else running, which can block the connection. With phpldapadmin I can connect to the ldap-server on the pdc and to the ldap running on the mail server.
• The slapd.conf files are identical except the schema includes for egroupware.

What else do I have to change to get this running?

It is not very charming, to set up several ldap-servers and to create the same useraccount on several servers. If there is no way to get this working as I tried to, I will have to setup an ldap-server on the mail server and a slurpd environment on each other server. But this is not the way I like it, because the pdc should do the authentication.

For further assistence I will be thankful.

best regards
Daniel
