Can't authenticate with ldap (cannot bind), but test button works (w/ solution)

[rrauenza]

I've seen a lot of problems posted with ldap binding, and an occasional one where the test button works but the login doesn't.

I've solved it at least for me ... it comes down to basically hitting UPDATE for the ldap server config...



but never actually hitting the UPDATE for the whole config area:





I wonder how many people fall into this trap? I finally figured it out when I noticed the database table still had the older password.

My workflow was that I had a incognito window up to test logins, and I had my admin window up to modify the settings. I hit update, then test, and it worked. Then I'd pop over to the incognito window and it didn't work.

This isn't the only place this kind of double update workflow exists in Zabbix, but it slipped my mind.

Anyway, I've posted this to hopefully help others when they are googling for this problem.

I have not been able to get the test to complete successfully.

I keep getting Cannot Bind error



I believe that 389 is giving me some issues so tried ldaps and ge the same issue
