Knox sso for ambari and ranger does not work

[#1]

hi all:

i config the knox sso for ambari use this doc,https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.5.0/bk_security/content/setting_up_knox_sso_for..., but when i submit the login page, then the page redirect to the ambari login page,and the redirect back again.

here is the amabri-server.log:

User(null), RemoteIp(192.168.XX.XX), Operation(User login), Roles( ), Status(Failed), Reason(Authentication required).

and knox gateway.log:

ed310ab8-e377-4781-adfb-27f94d472e90|audit|KNOXSSO||||access|uri|/gateway/knoxsso/api/v1/websso?originalUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fbigdata%3A8080%2F%23%2Flogin?redirected=true|success|Response status: 401

[#2]

Can you provide KnoxSSO topology from Knox configuration? Also try to authenticate using an User in Knox, as you are getting 401.

this is my knox sso topology， and my knox and ambari-server is not in the same machine.

[#4]

the ambari and knox sso use the same user, and knox use ldap

[#5]

I have meet the same problem,but I don`t know how to setup my own domain.

May you have solved this problem,If you have some suggest will be will kind for me.

Thanks!

[#6]

I think the problem is your hostname which does not have FQDN. e.g. somehost.abc.com , Try putting /etc/hosts entries with FQDN for your "bigdata[0-9]" hosts. KnoxSSO requires host TLD to set cookies for that domain.

[#9]

yes,thank you,the knox host and ambari host should be the same domain suffix. i've solve this.
