Re: What is the meaning of "declining to authorise" showing in error_log?

[Chee Yang Chau <cychau@xxxxxxxxx>]

If I set "AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off", then the authentication/authorisation will always fail.  I guess the httpd doesn't interact with LDAP successfully.

The clue is [debug].  It's not a message that's supposed to be relevant to
you as a user.  Why did you set LogLevel to debug if you have a problem
with a lot of low-level messages?

Does this mean the message isn't important?  The reason I turn on debug level logging is I want to make sure the authentication and authorisation is successfully perform against the LDAP service in my network.  The message "declining to authorise" seems fail to me.

My LDAP service support STARTTLS and I want to use STARTTLS for the connection.  However, I always fail to perform STARTTLS connection for the HTTPD service.  I don't know what's wrong and try to turn on debug logging.  And that lead me to see the declining message.
