        Hi!

        I have the same problem. What is MDM? What to do to get Z-Push working again?

        Regards

          I wonder why you think it is the same problem if you’re asking what MDM is. What exactly is not working?

            Z-Push in general is working but i do sometimes receive the same error message as the author posted:

            Aug  3 08:51:52 hostname kopano-server[19047]: Authentication by plugin failed for user "USER": LDAP auth for user "USER": Can't contact LDAP server

            Maybe that’s a follow up from the error with the ldap server, but i cannot get why the ldap server is sometimes not reachable for the kopano-server.

            Regards
            Richard

              Hi @darootler,

              I moved your posts because your issue has nothing to do with Kopano WebApp plugins even if the error message in Z-Push log is the same.

              Manfred

                I investigated this issue further and found out the ldap server is resetting the ldap connection from time to time, this seems to be a default behavior. In my opinion this needs to be addressed by kopano-server, or is there a config option to avoid or queue incoming logins from kopano-server as long as the ldap connection is restored?

                Regards
                Richard

                  Error logs on version 10.0.6.13:

                  Aug  3 07:59:43 hostname kopano-server[2418]: LDAP search error: Can't contact LDAP server. Will unbind, reconnect and retry.
                  

                  Error logs on version 10.0.6.356:

                  Aug  3 08:51:52 hostname kopano-server[19047]: Authentication by plugin failed for user "USERNAME": LDAP auth for user "USERNAME": Can't contact LDAP server
                  

                  Seems to me that there was a change between the versions. Anyone who can point me in the right direction?

                  Regards

                    If you havent dont yet, use TLS (STARTTLS) or LDAPS.

                      use TLS (STARTTLS) or LDAPS.

                      no, that should no longer be necessary with 356.

                      Edit: apart from that I am not able to observe this behaviour on my local system. When the ldap server goes away kopano-server will reconnect once its back.

                        I am already using LDAPS. Maybe i found a DNS issue on my side (option edns0) from stub-resolv.conf causing the following error:

                        Aug  3 09:47:12 hostname systemd-resolved[537]: Server returned error NXDOMAIN, mitigating potential DNS violation DVE-2018-0001, retrying transaction with reduced feature level UDP.
                        

                        Maybe that’s the reason why kopano-server sometimes has to reconnect to the ldap server, i’ll report back.

                        Regards

                                Aug  4 14:28:04 hostname kopano-server[1301]: LDAP search error: Can't contact LDAP server. Will unbind, reconnect and retry.
                                Aug  4 14:28:05 hostname kopano-server[1301]: Authentication by plugin failed for user "USERNAME": LDAP auth for user "USERNAME": Can't contact LDAP server
                                
                                

                                So for me it seems that the ldap server is closing the connection due to timeout and then kopano-server is reconnecting to ldap. If during this time an authentication is happening i am getting these errors. I was nat facing this issue in version 13, so there must a be change on kopano side.

                                @fbartels

                                Any ideas? I cannot believe that i am the only one facing this issue.

                                Regards
                                Richard

                                  ldap_auth_fail reveals my problem i think.

                                    That should not really matter, since afair for the login a bind is issued and this happens on a new connection anyways. Ah that seems to have changed with the linked commit.

                                      Well, i just reviewed the logs again and every time the ldap server resets the connection and an authentication is made i am getting this error. False username/password isn’t the case because the credentials are stored and not entered manually. I am sure that has something to do with the changes mentioned above, could you be so kind and contact Jan Engelhardt for a quick review of my findings?

                                      Otherwise i have to downgrade kopano, and that’s hard like hell with all the dependencies.

                                      Regards

                                        My DNS server cannot answer the AAAA request because i am not using IPv6. On the kopano server i have disabled IPv6 on grub level. So why is kopano trying to resolve the name of the LDAP server via IPv6 lookups?

                                        Maybe that’s the cause of this issue.

                                        Regards

                                          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:
