ldap seems to have broken for me in RC1

[loiosh]

okay... I realize I'm a bit of an edge case.
NEVERTHELESS:

I was running 7457 to permit me to use the usb -> serial adapter I have.

I then upgraded to RC1, which I now understand was a bad idea.
I couldn't boot, console would stop before the BTX loaders appeared.

I did a fresh install of fn8, used a blank freenas-v1.db
imported the content of:
storage_disk
storage_diskgroup
storage_mountpoint
storage_volume

tables from my "existing" install to get my data recognized.

I then added ONLY: new admin password, enabled ssh, change swap size/disk to 1g, and added ldap info via the gui.

I then tried to enable the ldap service.

I got a generically useless message: "the service could not be started"

here are logs from my nas (/var/log/messages)

now, I've not explicitly tried to use samba + ldap before (although I did add the samba schema to the ldap server after seeing the requests)

but I also don't know if that's a red herring as I don't have it enabled (yet) and this was working before rc1 as it is/was

I suppose it's possible it's looking for something in my directory that doesn't exist but I'm uncertain... I could use some help sussing out what's going on.

[loiosh]

that should read "I did a blank install of fn8.0.1 rc1

[loiosh]

Now I'm not so sure I'm an edge case.
I started with a fresh 8.0.1rc1 install, clean db.

added ONLY my ldap settings and tried to start ldap.
I get the same unhelpful "the service could not be started" message.

what follows is the connection from FN-> ldap server.

strange becomes stranger.

if I setup ldap on a clean install of beta 4, it works. if I then upgrade to rc1, it continues to work...

something's weird for sure.

[R3nn]

I seem to have exactly the same problem.
Output in debug.log when trying to enable LDAP in the GUI is:

Sep 7 10:47:32 freenas freenas[1956]: Calling: start(ldap)
Sep 7 10:47:58 freenas freenas[1956]: FreeNAS_LDAP.init: enter
Sep 7 10:47:58 freenas freenas[1956]: FreeNAS_LDAP_Base.init: enter
Sep 7 10:47:58 freenas freenas[1956]: Calling: stop(ldap)

Gonna try to go back to beta4 to see if that indeed works

[R3nn]

Confirmed LDAP functioning in BETA4.

Broken in RC1 ; also broken in the latest nightly (FreeNAS-8r7584-amd64)

[gcooper]

Please try a build that includes r7597 to see whether or not it fixes your issue.

[R3nn]

Have tried r7609 ; still no go

[loiosh]

updated to 8r7622 amd64 from beta4. first boot ldap worked fine. I successfully ssh'ed in as an ldap provided user. I went to add an rsync job and was presented with the following error log. (8r7622msg.rtf) I then stopped the ldap service and attempted to start it, at which point I was given the aforementioned "the service could not be started" message. it looks to me like someone is expecting the ssl option in the ldap settings to be 0/1 and is balking at start_tls.. but that's a guess.

[jhixson]

Fixed in r7684.

[bluenix]

Not fixed in 8.0.1-RC2 7813. LDAP will not start anymore when using start_tls.

[jhixson]

This has been fixed in r7989 in the 8.0.1 branch as well as trunk.
