Add-on for LDAP: How to troubleshoot error "command="ldap", : unable to get options from .conf"?

[jmallorquin]

Hi

We are using the Add-on for LDAP and we are getting the error:

command="ldap", : unable to get default options from .conf 

the ldap.conf

server = xxxx.xxxx.xx
port = 389
usessl = 0
binddn = uid=xxxxxxxxx,o=xxxxxxx,c=xxxx
basedn = o=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,c=xxx
password = xxxxxxxxx
ldap_filter = (objectclass=*)

We want to be able to query to openldap to create a lookup for all the users.

This configuration is the same that we use to get authentication and all works.

Hi jmallorquin,

I just uploaded the latest version of the TA, which does include a better debugging. Debugging can be enabled/disabled in the python script and the log can be found in $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk

cheers, MuS

Hi jmallorquin,

did you copy it to the /local/ directory and do you have a [default] stanza in your ldap.conf?
