Ranger-LDAP integration

amittewari_5 — Fri, 06 May 2016 19:01:43 GMT

The steps for Ranger configuration (cn=Manager,dc=hortonworks,dc=com etc.) vs LDAP structure (cn=ldapusers,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com etc) are not in sync at https://community.hortonworks.com/articles/16696/ranger-ldap-integration.html

Since I don't have much experience on LDAP, is their any reliable step-by-step I can use to quickly get upto speed with Ranger/LDAP integration?

LDAP users synched, however:

LDAP user not able to login using Ranger UI (Invalid credentials error-"The username or password you entered is incorrect..")
LDAP users' group not synched/empty in Ranger UI

1. Can you make sure the username and password are correct. Try login from cli just to make ensure.

2. Can you attached ranger usersync.log and xa-portal.log.

@Sagar Shimpi

username/password are correct. How to login in Ranger from cli?
Usersync.log as below. Didnt find xa-portal.log

PS- So far have HDP sandbox setup (with openldap). Not using openldap for domain login.

@Amit Tewari

From the usersync log it seems that ranger is able to sync with your ldap, below are the logs -

"LdapUserGroupBuilder [UnixUserSyncThread] - Updating user count: 1, userName: atewari,"

"LDAPUserGroupBuilder.updateSink() completed with user count: 2"

Are you able to see "atewari" use in Ranger UI?

Enable debug in ranger - "vi /usr/hdp/current/ranger-admin/ews/webapp/WEB-INF/log4j.xml"

replace info with debug in above file and restart ranger.

Check xa-portal.log and see if you are able to see any error.
