Hi,

I have been struggling for weeks to get LDAP to work in Zeppelin now.  
Unfortunately for me, I cannot use websockets unless also using LDAP for 
authentication.  So if I use the anonymous user, I just get a blank home page.  
Zeppelin leaves no configuration option to disable web sockets.  My company has 
their own cert authority, which I have added to my trust store.

When I try logging in to Zeppelin using my LDAP, I get 
“SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to 
requested target”.  I have attached the full stack trace.  Note that I am using 
ldaps over 636.  Basically it’s like saying that my trust store does not 
identify my LDAP server as a trusted web server.  I am certain that my JKS file 
is configured right, I have had a co-worker double check it for me.

To troubleshoot, we did:
Export JAVA_OPTS=’-Djavax.net.debug=all’

Now we are seeing all of the SSL verbose logs in the zeppelin--…..out file.

I was surprised to see this:
…
keyStore is :
keyStore type is : jks
keyStore provider is :
init keystore
init keymanager of type SunX509
trustStore is: /application/jdk1.8.0_101/jre/lib/security/cacerts
trustStore type is : jks
trustStore provider is :
init truststore
…

So it looks like the application is not truly using the trust store I have 
configured. I have this in my zeppelin-site.xml:

    <property>
        <name>zeppelin.ssl.truststore.path</name>
        <value>/application/zeppelin/conf/zeppelin-truststore.jks</value>
        <description>Path to truststore relative to Zeppelin configuration 
directory. Defaults to the keystore path</description>
    </property>

It seems to me like the key and trust store are not getting used to connect to 
the LDAP server.

Other factors:

·         I am using a corporate proxy

·         I have dockerized Zeppelin

Unrelated comments:

·         Every time I want to test a change in Zeppelin, the NPMInstaller 
wastes a minute of my life trying to download some files.  It fails every time, 
and it prints a stack trace in my logs every time.  I would like to disable it, 
but I looked through your code, there is no way to do it.  Your code also does 
not provide any opportunity to configure a proxy, so there is no chance this 
would work for me.  I am even thinking of making a pull request to fix this, 
it’s quite annoying.  I don’t know why the authors assume that other people are 
ok with this pattern.

·         I am also getting an exception in the logs stating: No operation 
matching request path 
"/api/login;JSESSIONID=92e79cbe-9113-473d-b76a-165666c3f221" is found.  Is this 
a bug in Zeppelin?


Does anybody know why this is not working?  Or how I can fix it?
