Hue synch ldap users via the command line /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/lib/hue/build/env/bin/hue sync_ldap_users_and_groups

When a try this script, i have this error raise Exception('No LDAP URL was specified') on hue/apps/useradmin/src/useradmin/ldap_access.py at master · cloudera/hue · GitHub . So i decided to read the following lines :

ldap_url = ldap_config.LDAP_URL.get()
username = ldap_config.BIND_DN.get()
password = desktop.conf.get_ldap_bind_password(ldap_config)
ldap_cert = ldap_config.LDAP_CERT.get()
search_bind_authentication = ldap_config.SEARCH_BIND_AUTHENTICATION.get()

if ldap_url is None:
raise Exception('No LDAP URL was specified')

Its means that ldap_url is None, so i tried to prind ldap_config and i have :

"<class 'desktop.lib.conf.BoundContainerWithGetAttr'>(config=<desktop.lib.conf.ConfigSection object at 0x7f5b80fb0250>, bind_to={'auth': {'jwt': {}}, 'database': {}, 'query_database': {}, 'task_server': {}, 'session': {}, 'knox': {}, 'smtp': {}, 'websockets': {}, 'raz': {}, 'ozone': {}, 'kerberos': {}, 'tracing': {}, 'metrics': {}, 'slack': {}, 'analytics': {}, 'ldap': {}}, grab_key='ldap')"

How can i resolve this problem
