Hi,
I am struggling to set up LDAP in a clean install of SuiteCRM 8.10.1. I want to authenticate users against Active Directory. Ideally against a specific group or groups, but that’s not the problem at hand.
I can query the Active Directory server using ldapsearch on the server command line, so I have the right bind and search information, but I can’t even see SuiteCRM trying to connect via LDAP in any of the logs I know about. I have, in the past, had both SugarCRM 6 and SuiteCRM 7 talking very happily to LDAP, but I never managed to get anywhere upgrading my old SuiteCRM7 install, hence the clean attempt.
So my .env.local config file looks like this (redacted, of course):
=============================
LDAP Setup for ABC
AUTH_TYPE=ldap
LDAP CONFIG
LDAP_HOST=host.abc.local
LDAP_PORT=389
LDAP_ENCRYPTION=none
LDAP_PROTOCOL_VERSION=3
LDAP_REFERRALS=false
LDAP_DN_STRING=‘dc=abc,dc=local’
LDAP_QUERY_STRING=‘sAMAccountName={username}’
LDAP_SEARCH_DN=‘cn=CRMAUTH,cn=Users,dc=abc,dc=local’
LDAP_SEARCH_PASSWORD=‘PASSWORD’
EXTRA BITS
LDAP_CONNECTION_OPTION_DEBUG_LEVEL=7
===============================
As far as I can tell from the docs ( LDAP configuration reference :: SuiteCRM Documentation ) , .env.local is the only place I need to set anything, and I have run the Quick Repair and Rebuild every time I make a change.
So are there more logs somewhere that would or should show LDAP connections? Am I missing a part of the config, or is it just wrong. But even if it were wrong, why can I not see any ldap messages in the logs?
Any help gratefully accepted.
