[Bug 155947] Re: ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot
I have the same problem on a Hardy server installation. I have updated it from Gutsy, but i count it as a Hardy install because i only used Gutsy server cd to install the base system then i have updated it to hardy straight away. In my case it was not enough to put "bind_policy soft" in ldap.conf, i had to change runlevel of slapd from S19 to S10. My system without these changes hangs at login, i can ping it but can not login. The boot process stops at "Starting kernel log daemon...". I have attached my config files. I don't have pam_ldap.conf and libnss- ldap.conf. ** Attachment added: "ldap.conf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13412116/ldap.conf -- ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Re: [Bug 155947] Re: ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot
Good criteria. But please also consider the PAM rules for logins. Some allow a graceful fall thru to pam_unix.so as a backup. This should be a default no matter what other auth system is used. There are many other pam auth systems, eg: fingerprint, usb key etc... LDAP is only one of many. So when configuring lib-auth-client take very careful note of the PAM config files and the order of the auth mechanism's.

[Bug 155947] Re: ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot
Okay, snapshot of conclusions at this point... (1) Any systems Feisty (and earlier) upgraded to Hardy (and later) would require a manual migration of /etc/libnss-ldap.conf and /etc/pam- ldap.conf if either or both of those files exist. (2) None of the 5+ Ubuntu developers who have looked at this bug has successfully reproduced the "boot hang" aspect of this bug. A boot hang involves a system which is not responsive to a network ping, not responsive to banging keys, and toggling caps-lock/num-lock does not affect the associated LEDs. (That's a crude definition, of course, but some decent guidelines.) ANYONE who is able to reproduce such a boot hang, please respond and attach (a cleansed copy) of: * /var/log/syslog (as retrieved from a subsequent rescue boot) * /etc/ldap.conf * /etc/nsswitch.conf * /etc/libnss-ldap.conf * /etc/pam-ldap.conf (3) We have been able to reproduce a "hang on login". I'd argue that this is a "functions as designed" scenario. If you require an LDAP server to login, and it's not available, logins should not succeed until the target LDAP server becomes available. In the case where you want to relax that requirement, a system can be configured to use a soft bind policy. :-Dustin ** Changed in: libnss-ldap (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

ldap-auth-client combined /etc/libnss-ldap.conf and /etc/pam-ldap.conf. If either or both of these files exist on upgrade, then the user is prompted with a message to manually migrate the files.

Interesting, okay. So perhaps the 'fix' to this bug is to ensure that the upgrade process injects this 'soft bind' policy into the configuration files.

Dustin, I had the problem in two different desktop machines running Fiesty, with LDAP client authentication working, when I upgraded them to Gutsy. The fix was to change bind policy to soft and to manually configure the proper files using various sources on the web as a guide.

@Brian- A few more questions, then... So you can reproduce this problem reliably on a Hardy Beta fresh install? And by reproduce, the machine hangs on boot (and not just on login)? Your process for reproducing this problem involves a fresh install of Hardy Beta, and then customizing the config files as follows: * /etc/ldap.conf: a hostname (not an IP or URI) * /etc/ldap.conf: "bind_policyhard" * /etc/nsswitch.conf: "group ldap files" Then you remove connectivity to the ldap server, and you reboot the Hardy Beta machine. At that point, your machine hangs on reboot? Is it responsive to anything? Ping, etc? On a subsequent reboot, can you check /var/log/syslog and paste any relevant log messages from the previous boot? -- ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Sorry I can't provide more detailed config info, but as I explained before, the machine has been wiped and reinstalled and reconfigured many times since the original problem.

Same happened to me. I think the problem lies in the reference to ldap server. With "pam_ldap.conf" my ref is a uri and works, but when I make it a straight host name ref, then it hangs.

[Bug 155947] Re: ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot
Given that Hardy defaults to roaming network mode and that any use of libnss-ldap will result in a non-bootable machine, shouldn't the importance of this bug be made critical? Sorry, I'm not trying to rant - I just want to make sure appropriate resources are made available to fix this for an LTS release :) -- ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 155947] Re: ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot
An added twist to this bug... I've been running LDAP servers on Feisty and Breezy and Hoary for a long time, without this problem. The latest couple I've set up have shown me this problem. This problem is very significant in this case because the LDAP servers themselves are unable to boot. Because slapd is started late in the boot-process by default (S41 in rc2.d), we find ourselves caught in the middle of a race condition, or rather deadlock. klogd can't boot because it is waiting for the LDAP server which will not initialize because it's waiting on klogd. My initial work-around was simply moving SLAPD to start as S13 in rcS.d, right after networking. However, reading how much of a problem this is for Gutsy, I will be considering other tactics. I recently built a significant fraction of an infrastructure on Gutsy, and have been incorporating each machine into LDAP. Since they are all static- addressed and the network is available and fast, I've not seen this problem on non-LDAP servers to date... but each LDAP server I have built lately has been a headache (since it's been just enough time since the last one that I forget to modify the boot order). Best of luck to you guys. Keep up the great work! I'm looking forward to Hardy.
