[ovirt-users] oVirt 3.6 Migrated from Legacy AD Authentication - Previously Used AD Users Can't Log In

Wed Oct 26 16:31:57 UTC 2016

I have been updating our oVirt 3.6 (3.6.7.5-1) environment in preparation for upgrading to oVirt 4.

We had been using the legacy AD connection (via engine-manage-domains), and since that’s no longer available in oVirt 4, this was a priorty. (I put this off as long as I could – I found the new method a step back in ease of use.)

So following the documentation I setup ‘ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap’, connecting to the same Active Directory forest. It seemed to work; I was able to look up users. But none of the existing AD users that we had been using in oVirt were able to log in to the admin or user portal, using the new extension. The error is “General command validation failure.”. (Whereas if you enter a wrong password, you get the expected wrong password error.)  Here’s what /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log shows for “myuser”:

I logged in with the local ‘admin’ account and added some additional users from AD. Then I found that those newly added users *could* log in just fine. It’s only a problem with users that we had previously added when the legacy
LDAP provider was used. I’ve tried removing and re-adding those existing users, but that doesn’t fix it. My hunch is that there is something left over associated with those accounts that’s breaking this. To be clear, I’ve already removed the legacy provider:

engine-manage-domains list
Legacy kerberos/ldap directory integration is obsoleted and will be removed in 4.0 version along with the engine-manage-domains utility. Please migrate to ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap provider or contact support for assistance.

Manage Domains completed successfully

Where else should I look to troubleshoot? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

Best,
Daniel
