Hi community,
Can anybody enlighten me which dataminer log files i could inspect to troubleshoot LDAP connection issues? What I am interested specifically is which queries are sent to the LDAP server in the background to retrieve the users and groups from the LDAP server when adding “existing users” or “existing groups”. Knowing which queries are sent and match that with the detailed configuration in the user and group configuration sections should allow to fine tune the configuration more easily.
Thanks!
Hi Koen, you can also find some useful information pertaining to LDAP in SLDMS and particularly in SLDataMiner log file where you can see the ‘NT_REFRESH_LDAP’, where DataMiner queries groups during the refreshing of the LDAP.
I can confirm both comments
To see the queries passing by you can check the ActiveDirectory.txt file where you’ll see the hourly queries passing by to retrieve the groups
The process responsible for updating LDAP is indeed SLDataMiner, you will also find the “trigger” for those queries in that log file.
Hi Koen,
If I am not mistaken, the main log file should be ActiveDirectory.txt. This file will contain the queries sent to the LDAP server.
