APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When a node configured to use ldap authentication is migrated to
    ACE V12, the bind username and password won't get migrated and
    hence authentication will fail with "BIP2775E -  There was an
    error when attempting to authenticate user 'xxxx' with the LDAP
    server".
    

Local fix

  • Explicitly set ldapBindDN and ldapBindPassword under
    RestAdminListener after migration
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    All users of IBM App Connect Enterprise V11 and V12 who uses
    LDAP authentication.
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    MultiPlatform
    
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    When an Integration Node configured to use LDAP authentication
    is migrated from IBM Integration Bus v10 to App Connect
    Enterprise v11 or v12, the authentication fails with error :
    
    "BIP2775E -  There was an error when attempting to authenticate
    user 'xxxx' with the LDAP server".
    
    This issue occurs because the properties LDAPBINDDN and
    LDAPBINDPASSWORD do not get migrated.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Product has been modified such that the LDAPBINDDN and
    LDAPBINDPASSWORD  get migrated successfully and  no longer cause
    authentication failure.
