Ldap connection is good but I am still not able to login (ABAP-stack)

[Former Member]

I have made all of the connections with transaction ldap and it reports back that I have a good connection but I am still not able to login using my ldap id and password to nw2004s (ABAP). I have restarted the server. What step am I missing? Do I have to map the attributes if I am only using Active Directory as a read server?

thanks

Already ran those commands (on Windows). I can connect to Active Directory fine with the Connection Test but I am unable to login to the system with an LDAP Id or see any LDAP users.

Hi Paul

if you have os level access please check any ldap process is activ you can check using ps -ef |grep ldap (if server running on unix).If not restart that from run directry with the commands..(you can kill the process which is runing before restart)

to start the connector

su - <sid>adm

cd /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run

./ldap_rfc -a LDAP_<SID>_# -x sapgwXX -g <hostname> &

e.g. ./ldap_rfc –a LDAP_SID_1 sapgw01 –g bdhp4158 &

As <sid>adm, check for LDAP connector running

Also check from t code LDAP from sap.

Do check there are no hung connection to gatway in SMGW.Also check ldap sink job from SM37 is successfully running.Hope this info would be very handy.

Regards..
