BINDING A LDAP TO SIMPLESAMLPHP

[Dani Merida]

Hi to all:

I am new here and I have some problems with simplesamlphp

I have installed in a virtual machine and I have a LDAP installed and
tested in another VM.

I have modified "authsources.php" and "config.php" as the manual says,
but when I access to the login page with a valid user and the LDAP
doesn't return anything, only a blank page in this URL:

http://my-openidp/simplesaml/module.php/core/loginuserpass.php?

LDAP needs an aditional configuration in order to give back
information or I have to setup any more things in simplesamlphp? Any
suggests?

It is possible that you are missing the LDAP lirary for PHP or
something like that.

I suggest that you look at the error log of your web server - errors
that cause blank pages are usually logged there.

I have looked at Apache logs, but there is nothing wrong.
What is the PHP library in simplesaml?

If you're on Debian/Ubuntu check for the following:

dpkg -l | grep php5-ldap

to check if the PHP ldap libs have been installed. If not, then simply:

sudo apt-get install php5-ldap

to add it to your installation. Restart Apache with sudo
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart and you should be up and running ...

Thanks Soren, I didn't have installed the library for PHP.
But now, I have a new problem: I get this trace error in the browser
when I try to authenticate:

SimpleSAML_Error_Error: UNHANDLEDEXCEPTION

This error appears when the user/password is correct and when it's not.

Thanks in advance
Dani

Well, then TLS probably isn't supported or (correctly) configured in
your DSA?
As always, test all connections with ldapsearch first and only once
you have everything running transfer the working config to
SimpleSAMLphp. Until then it has nothing to do with SimpleSAMLphp, as
it's an ordinary LDAP client here.
