Register the Open edX Instance with Azure Active Directory

[Nathan Hart]

Hi, 

We are running the lastest Hawthorn.

I followed the instructions here: https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/latest/configuration/tpa/tpa_integrate_open/tpa_oauth.html#configure-open-edx

Using Azure Active Directory, when i go to my LMS and click sign in with "Microsoft" it redirects me to an 500 error at: http://FQDN.com/auth/login/azuread-oauth2/?auth_entry=login&next=%2F 

I am getting this error message from: /edx/var/log/lms/edx.log

edxuser@nrgedxr02:/edx/app/edxapp$ sudo tail /edx/var/log/lms/edx.log

    return func(request, backend, *args, **kwargs)

  File "/edx/app/edxapp/venvs/edxapp/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/social_django/views.py", line 23, in auth

    return do_auth(request.backend, redirect_name=REDIRECT_FIELD_NAME)

  File "/edx/app/edxapp/venvs/edxapp/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/social_core/actions.py", line 12, in do_auth

    for field_name in backend.setting('FIELDS_STORED_IN_SESSION', []):

  File "/edx/app/edxapp/venvs/edxapp/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/social_core/backends/base.py", line 31, in setting

    return self.strategy.setting(name, default=default, backend=self)

  File "/edx/app/edxapp/edx-platform/common/djangoapps/third_party_auth/strategy.py", line 34, in setting

    raise Exception("Can't fetch setting of a disabled backend/provider.")

Exception: Can't fetch setting of a disabled backend/provider.

Any ideas or assistance would be appreciated. 

Thank you.

Hi Nathan,

Could you try ensure the slug is the same name as the backend service which in this case is 'azuread-oauth2'.

Thanks that was it, i didn't see that in the documentation! 

Thanks again,

Nathan
