Import LDAP users task test fails

keerthi_g — Wed, 25 Sep 2019 18:40:54 GMT

Hello everyone,

We are trying to create an import task for LDAP users on NPrinting November 2018 version.

Once the task is created and saved, test now operation fails with the below error

Testing import of filters and recipients for task with id eb378872-59d9-417d-9dcb-fd8ef03fcfc3.
Importing data from source 1
Importing recipients and groups from ldap server ldap://XXXXXXX as cn=directory manager
ERROR: The search request cannot be processed because it contains a critical control with OID 1.2.840.113556.1.4.319 that is not supported by the Directory Server for this type of operation ---> The server does not support the control. The control is critical.

LDAP server we are trying to send the request to supports pagination of results.

I have tried to fetch the logs at "DEBUG" level on the scheduler and got the below information

I have restarted the server and all the NPrinting services with no luck.

We are able to successfully connect and import users from the same LDAP directory server on QlikSense.

Please let us know if anyone has experienced this on their environment and the possible solution for this issue.

Any help is highly appreciated!!!

Thanks,

Hi,

Are you trying to sync from active directory ?

From the screenshot you sent I believe some attributes are incorrect (ex: group membership CN)

I have tested an import from an internal Lab server and it has been working with the following attributes - see attachment.

In the Test I have run, I was trying to import only users member of an active directory group called "NPrinting_all_users"

Users stored in : ldap://domain.local/OU=Employees,DC=domain,DC=local

NPrinting groups stored in : OU=QlikNPrinting,OU=Qlik,OU=Business_intelligence,DC=domain,DC=local

Distinguished name of "NPrinting_all_users" : CN=NPrinting_all_users,OU=QlikNPrinting,OU=Qlik,OU=Business_intelligence,DC=domain,DC=local

For the sync to work I have set NPrinting as follows:

Connection path : ldap://domain.local/OU=Employees,DC=domain,DC=local

Username & password : An account with sufficient permissions on AD.

Alternative group path: OU=QlikNPrinting,OU=Qlik,OU=Business_intelligence,DC=domain,DC=local

Additionnal user filters : memberof=CN=NPrinting_all_users,OU=QlikNPrinting,OU=Qlik,OU=Business_intelligence,DC=domain,DC=local

In order to understand which attributes to use, I recommand:

1) Use a third party LDAP browser like LDAP admin to check from your NPrinting server the attributes of your environment

http://www.ldapadmin.org/

2) Test your filters from an LDAP browser tool, or active directory directly if you have access (find in custom search > advanced tab)

3) If you are still unable to set this up, contact your IT department responsible of your LDAP

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Alexis

Hi Alexis,

Thank you for your response.

We made a change to the connection path ldap://domain.local/OU=Employees,DC=domain,DC=local as per your suggestion and have kept our group=cn.

This solved our issue and we were able to successfully import users from LDAP.

Thanks for the solution!!!

Regards,

Keerthi
