Settings validation failed because of invalid LDAP attributes: uid

Dear Support

 

I got the error "Settings validation failed because of invalid LDAP attributes: uid" and do not know how can I solve (i am in step 2 "Configure Directory Mappings").

 

I use LDAP agent and have a no standart AD on a synology.

 

Shema is:

dn: CN=Chris,CN=Users,DC=xxxx,DC=xxxx

objectClass: top

objectClass: person

objectClass: organizationalPerson

objectClass: user

cn: Chris

instanceType: 4

whenCreated: 20180523160056.0Z

uSNCreated: 19205

name: Chris

objectGUID:: xxxx

codePage: 0

countryCode: 0

lastLogoff: 0

primaryGroupID: 513

objectSid:: xxxx

logonCount: 0

sAMAccountName: Chris

sAMAccountType: 805306368

userPrincipalName: xxxxxx

objectCategory: CN=Person,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=xxxx,DC=xxxx

userAccountControl: 66048

accountExpires: 0

displayName: Christian

givenName: Christian

mail: email@xxxxx

sn: xxxx

telephoneNumber:

pwdLastSet: 131740659380000000

memberOf: CN=G-Cloud,CN=Users,DC=xxxx,DC=xxx

lockoutTime: 0

lastLogonTimestamp: 132073262057138370

whenChanged: 20190711134325.0Z

uSNChanged: 286604

badPasswordTime: 132081634371825400

badPwdCount: 0

lastLogon: 132082865254854140

 

 

 

I know there is no uid (only a cn) in this shema and I think that is the issue.

But how can I solve - e.g. do a mapping in the Settings?

 

Thanks

Chris

    Hello Chris,

     

    This is Dan with Okta Support.

     

    Looking at the documentation below it would be expected for the user attribute to be left blank unless the GroupObject and GroupFilter is posixgroup then the user attribute should be set to uid.

    More information on this can be found by using the link below:

    https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Directory/Okta-Java-LDAP-Agent.htm?cshid=ldapuserattribute

    See step 5 in the LDAP Configuration section in the document above

    Should you require additional information or assistance, please don't hesitate to open a ticket with support.

     

    Best Regards,

    Dan

    I, too, am having issues configuring the directory mapping. I have the agent installed and setup successfully. However, I am receiving the same Settings validation failed because of invalid LDAP attributes: uid error when trying to test the configuration.

     

    Dan,

     

    Do you have any additional information or time to assist?

     

    Thanks!

      Hi, was this ever solved? I'm in the same situation - LDAP agent working nicely, POSTs successful results, but Directory mapping fails because of the same invalid LDAP attributes: uid error.
