Assuming your user and password are correct, check splunkd.log on that machine for any ldap-related errors around the time of your login attempt.
Also make sure one of your ldap groups is mapped to a splunk role.

Many things could be the issue.

  • wrong user name
  • wrong password
  • LDAP/AD/etc. connection broken
  • wrong url
  • broken network
  • etc

for my current splunk enterprise I am LDAP group for the authentification. So i am able login in DS but not in the searchhead and indexer UI even though credential and environment are same.
At the same time when i am try to login into searchhead and indexer via putty to see any app details i am able to do that. Only Splunk UI is not working,showing "invalid userid and password"
