Hi Mikhail

Good news !

I deleted current user  which used "dn: cn=", and re-created it using "dn: 
uid=", looks like it works.

So that’s an option 3 as well

Nevertheless for academic reasons I am going to give your option 2 a try and 
report back what I find

Thanks again
Regards

sanjay

You don't need to rebuild Hive, no.

I see 2 solutions for that -

1) modify your LDAP data schema so it accepts uid instead of cn attribute (and 
actually I think it should be working, as after all there can't be so obvious 
bug in Hive...), so probably whoever tested that provider was using difference 
LDAP schema that what we have

2) write your class similar to the one mentioned, and point Hive to that in the 
hive-site.xml, set hive.server2.authentication=CUSTOM,and provide a full class 
name of your class (and make sure it's on classpath, of course).

I prefer second way. Hope it should help. Let me know it it worked for you.

*General question to folks* - am I missing something or there's really a bug in 
LDAP authenticator, which doesn't allow precise configuration of binding string?

Thanks a lot Mikhail for getting back.

That means I cannot use this using beeline unless I change the code and build 
hive again ?

Thanks

Subject: Re: hiveserver2 with OpenLDAP ?

I see the same behavior and here's the reason.

LdapAuthenticationProviderImpl - that the one responsible for LDAP 
authentication in Hive. Look at this class. It has snippet (CDH 4.2.1, hive 
0.10):

 // setup the security principal
    String bindDN;
    if (baseDN != null) {
      bindDN = "uid=" + user + "," + baseDN;
    } else {
      bindDN = user;
    }

And according to Cloudera documentation, you're supposed to set baseDN param 
for OpenLDAP, but not for AD. So when this baseDN isn't present, Hive takes 
username as it is (say user1) and tries to bind to the ldap server, which works.

When you set this baseDN, it constructs the bind string as 
uid=user1,dc=wizetest,dc=com. But most likely, your open ldap expects it to be 
rather cn=user1,dc=wizetest,dc=com, uid attribute isn't being used.

I think the way to go is to provide you own LDAP authenticator, which has more 
control on how to generate LDAP bind string.

Hi guys

I tested hiveserver2 with Active directory - It works
With Open LDAP it does not

Is there any specific syntax for specifying the LDAP url or baseDN ?

<property>
  <name>hive.server2.authentication.ldap.url</name>
  
<value>ldap://myserver.corp.nextag.com:389<http://myserver.corp.nextag.com:389></value>
</property>
<property>
  <name>hive.server2.authentication.ldap.baseDN</name>
  <value>dc=wizetest,dc=com</value>
</property>

Beeline keeps giving error

jdbc:hive2://dev-thdp5:10000> !connect jdbc:hive2://dev-thdp5:10000 hiveuser1 
******** org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver
Connecting to jdbc:hive2://dev-thdp5:10000
Error: Could not establish connection to jdbc:hive2://dev-thdp5:10000: Peer 
indicated failure: Error validating the login (state=08S01,code=0)

Any clues ?

Thanks
