Vertica segfault when performing LDAP authentication

Jean-Baptiste_F

Hello, I’m trying to use LDAP Authentication on Vertica 6.1.2, installed on Debian 7.1 Wheezy (I know this is not officialy supported, but I really need to use this version because of hardware compatibility). Have enabled it through admintools with following config: ClientAuthentication = local dbadmin trust ClientAuthentication = local all ldap “ldap://LDAP_IP_ADDR/dc=MYCOMPANY,dc=com;uid=;,ou=users,ou=accounts,dc=MYCOMPANY,dc=com” Also created local account for my user but without any password, since it seems to be needed as stated here: http://vertica-forums.com/viewtopic.php?t=86 when trying to connect with command: /opt/vertica/bin/vsql -U MY_USER I get segfault for database vertica process right after providing my password. Using a local account with local password allows connection. Any help appreciated. Regards, Jean-Baptiste Favre

Try adding searchattribute=uid at the end of the ldap string.
For example:
ldap://ldap.example.com/search;basedn=dc=example,dc=com;searchattribute=uid
