LDAP : javax.naming.NamingException

[vishwas]

Hi,

I am using Spring Security (3.0.5) to connect to an LDAP server (ApacheDS).

XML configuration for connecting to the Ldap server

<http use-expressions="true">
		<intercept-url pattern="/" access="permitAll" />
		<intercept-url pattern="/**" access="isAuthenticated()" />
		<form-login />
		<logout />
</http>

<ldap-server id="ldapServer" url="ldap://localhost:10389/" 	
manager-dn="uid=admin,ou=system" manager-password="secret" />

<authentication-manager>
  <ldap-authentication-provider server-ref="ldapServer"
	user-search-base="ou=people,o=sevenSeas" 
        user-search-filter="uid={0}" />
</authentication-manager>

When trying to login by specifying a valid username and password (wbush & password, refer image for ldap browser view), I get the following error

Reason: Uncategorized exception occured during LDAP processing; nested exception is javax.naming.NamingException: [LDAP: error code 80 - OTHER: failed for SearchRequest baseDn : '' filter : '(2.5.4.50=2.5.4.3=william bush,2.5.4.11=people,2.5.4.10=sevenseas:[9223372036854775807])' scope : whole subtree typesOnly : false Size Limit : no limit Time Limit : no limit Deref Aliases : deref Always attributes : 'cn', 'objectclass', 'javaserializeddata', 'javaclassname', 'javafactory', 'javacodebase', 'javareferenceaddress', 'javaclassnames', 'javaremotelocation' : -1]; remaining name ''

I do not get any useful logs, relevent log snippet is as follows

Apr 7, 2011 8:16:25 PM org.springframework.ldap.core.LdapTemplate assureReturnObjFlagSet
INFO: The returnObjFlag of supplied SearchControls is not set but a ContextMapper is used - setting flag to true

Normal working java program which does what I require (login to ldap server as admin and then check for a registered user based on username)

@Test
	public void ldapAuthenticationIsSuccessful() throws Exception {
		Hashtable<String, String> env = new Hashtable<String, String>();
		env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "simple");
		env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "uid=admin,ou=system");
		env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://localhost:10389/");
		env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "secret");
		env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
				"com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");

		InitialLdapContext ctx = new InitialLdapContext(env, null);

		NamingEnumeration results = null;

		SearchControls controls = new SearchControls();
		controls.setSearchScope(SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE);
		results = ctx.search("ou=people,o=sevenSeas", "(uid=wbush)", controls);

		while (results.hasMore()) {
			SearchResult searchResult = (SearchResult) results.next();
			Attributes attributes = searchResult.getAttributes();
			Attribute attr = attributes.get("cn");
			String cn = (String) attr.get();
			System.out.println(cn);
		}
	}

A view of my ldap server looks like this,


I have doubly verifies that the supplied ldap server credentials and the username and password of the user being searched for a correct (I have tried searching for the same user with an ldap browser and it works)

Any Idea what I am missing?

Thanks,
Vishwas

Please post the contextual debug log, stack trace (if any) and the equivalent java code which works (see this FAQ).
