Can't contact LDAP server

@jengelh said in Can't contact LDAP server:

So why is kopano trying to resolve the name of the LDAP server via IPv6 lookups?

First, that’s glibc, second, because the content of data transmissions and castrating a system’s ability to offer AF_INET6 sockets are two separate things. It helps to know what ipv6.disable does, and more importantly, doesn’t do.

Thank you for clarification, i think i fixed all my DNS issues playing around with systemd-resolve but i am still facing issues with kopano-server authentication issues after upgrading to 10.0.6.356:

I am on Kopano Core Version core-10.0.6.406.e263d46-Debian_10-amd64 and experience the same ldap issue since the upgrade with the ldap service running on Univention UCS.

Interesting enough, under https://download.kopano.io/community/core%3A/ I find only the 10.0.6.406 Version since 13.08.2020. I thought these artefacts were built daily? Anyway, when do you expect version 428+ with the ldap fix to be available?

Should you require more information to debug the issue, I’m happy to assist.

Does anyone know when this, or a later, version will be available on https://download.kopano.io/community/core%3A/ ? There has been no update on the nightly builds since 13.08.2020. Or can anyone point me to the correct repo to compile it myself?

The sources for the Groupware Core part are located at https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KC/repos/kopanocore/browse

The last I checked the missing nightly releases were looked into, but currently the focus is on finalizing the upcoming release for customers, so the nightly downloads are not the highest priority.

Good news, everyone.

I just upgraded to core-10.0.6.496 and so far, the ldap connection errors seems to be gone.

alexthetiger68

Well, the error messages have changed slightly, but at least the clients (Outlook via Activesync w/o KOE, Mail on iOS) do not seem to complain anymore.

Previously the clients would show a popup stating that the username/password was wrong, which I just had to <cancel> multiple times till it went away and synching of Kopano server to the clients resumed.

The new error message:
2020-10-08T06:39:27.011248: [error ] Previous message logged 76 times
