  • 1.  WebSphere Application Server is not Listing LDAP user group information?

    Posted Sat December 10, 2011 03:00 PM

    Hi all,
    I configured WebSphere Application Server security to use LDAP standalone server. It works because I can loggin with primary user administrative. But when I go to section Manage Users appears a message about Repositories Federates and don't list the users information.


    But, when I go to section Manage Roles to users/to groups and specify a username/group, select a role and click apply, it works because it Maps a user/group with a role.


    In other words, Communication is being established with the server ldap But I didn't list the users and groups of the repository in the section Manage Users/Groups. 


    Do you know why?


    Thanks. ;)

    WASND 6.1 + Php Ldap server.

    To manage users and groups, either federated repositories must be the current realm definition or the current realm definition configuration must match the federated repositories configuration. If you use Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), configure both the federated repositories and standalone LDAP registry configurations to use the same LDAP server.

    you cannot manage users in stand-alone ldap, from WAS console. 

    Federated Repositories :  Provides read and write capabilities for the repositories that are defined in the federated repository configuration. Supports multiple repositories in a realm within a cell.

    User Registry :  Provides read only capability for the registries. Supports one registry only in a realm within a cell.

    I’m guessing that you are trying to add User or Group roles to your system for various individuals like delayer’s, administrators etc.


    In Secuirty > Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure you will see Administrative security section at that top left. Select it and then you are able to manage USER Roles and Group Roles like you were able to before you configured your system to use a Standalone LDAP registry.

    Yes Tony, That's exactly why I asked the question hehe. I didn't try for that way. I thought it was for section User and Groups > Manage User for example.

    Thank you very much ;)
