LDAP authentication keeps breaking. [message #897659] Tue, 24 July 2012 20:50 Go to next message

I setup Hudson 2.2.1 and everything seems to be working, except I keep getting errors with the LDAP manager authentication. I get it working for a while then it stops working for no apparent reason. When I change the config to allow anonymous login it shows invalid username or password when connecting to the LDAP server. I re-enter the login information and it accepts it and it works for a while. To get it working for a while I had the password in plain text in the config.xml file, then suddenly with nothing changing Hudson stopped working.

I am running Hudson in a virtual machine that is running CentOS 6.2 and the LDAP server is Ubuntu based (actually it is Turnkey Linux) running OpenLDAP. I have verified each time that hudson stopped working that no configuration has changed.

Has anyone run into this problem before? Any idea what is causing this or how to fix it?

I believe you must allow anonymous users the Read permissions, otherwise they will be unable to see anything.

This has nothing to do with permissions. I have to have anonymous enabled right now because the LDAP is not working properly. I have to keep re-typing the password for the LDAP manager because something keeps happening that is causing it to send the wrong password, then the authentication breaks. I should be able to just setup the LDAP authentication and keep using that but I cannot because it keeps breaking.

Jeff could you file a bug. I'll take a look at it for Hudson 3.0.0 RC!
