AuthzLDAPAuthoritative and "no authoritative handler" problems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi folks,

I'm having a problem with my first attempts to migrate a 2.0 server to 2.2, specifically with the LDAP configuration I'm using.  I have a somewhat convoluted directory structure, with different permissions for different directories.  My problem can be summed up with the configuration in httpd-vhosts.conf (see below); my actual configuration has additional Directory sections, some of which have multiple "require ldap-users" and "require ldap-groups", but the two I've copied here are able to recreate the problem.

<AuthnProviderAlias ldap ldap-site>
	AuthLDAPURL ldap://*****/o=root?uid??(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)
	AuthLDAPDereferenceAliases never
</AuthnProviderAlias>

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName docsite.sgi.sk.ca
  DocumentRoot "/my/directory/htdocs"

  <Directory "/my/directory/htdocs">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
    AllowOverride None
    AuthBasicProvider ldap-site
    AuthName "Login Now Please"
    AuthType Basic
    AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off
    require valid-user
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from 10.0.0.8 10.0.1.9
    Satisfy any
  </Directory>

  <Directory "/my/directory/htdocs/Infrastructure/private">
    AuthBasicProvider ldap-site
    AuthName "Login Now Please"
    AuthType Basic
    AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on
    require ldap-group cn=mygroup,ou=container,ou=container,o=root
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from 10.0.0.8 10.0.1.9
    Satisfy any
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

The problem is that using this configuration I can sign in to the root of the site no problem, but when I try getting in to the private directory that is more restrictive apache throws errors like "access to /Infrastructure/private/index.html failed, reason: require directives present and no Authoritative handler."  My understanding of the AuthzLDAPAuthoritative directive from the documentation is that if I'm using "require valid-user" I need to set it to off, but if I'm using "require ldap-user" or "require ldap-group" I need to set it to on; I'm doing so but it doesn't seem to be working as I expected it to.  I can't find any mention on the net of anyone else experiencing this problem after they get the AuthzLDAPAuthoritative thing under control, so I'm assuming I'm missing something simple but I can't see what it is.

Any help would be appreciated!
