| | | Problem(Abstract) | | When IBM® WebSphere® Portal accesses the LDAP (in this case Microsoft® Active Directory), either to start the server or during configuration tasks, "LDAP: error code 49" can be encountered. | | | | Symptom | | Generally, error references SECJ0369E and SECJ0055E will be generated in the SystemOut.log. There are, however, various root causes that can be derived from the values that follow the initial description. An example is shown below.
From SystemOut.log:
[date/time] 0000000a LdapRegistryI A SECJ0419I: The user registry is currently connected to the LDAP server ldap://<hostname>:389.
[date/time] 0000000a LTPAServerObj E SECJ0369E: Authentication failed when using LTPA. The exception is [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0C090334, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data 775, vece ].
[date/time] 0000000a distContextMa E SECJ0270E: Failed to get actual credentials. The exception is javax.naming.AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0C090334, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data 775, vece ]
at com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtx.mapErrorCode(LdapCtx.java:3005)
In this case, validate-ldap is the config task that was failing, and from the ConfigTrace.log we see:
action-validate-ldap-was-admin-user:
[ldapcheck] ###########################
[ldapcheck] ldapURL : <hostname>:389
[ldapcheck] ldapUser : CN=wasadmin,OU=WebspherePortal,OU=Service Accounts,DC=select,DC=corp,DC=sem
[ldapcheck] ldapPassword : *********
[ldapcheck] ldapSslEnabled : false
[ldapcheck] javax.naming.AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0C090334, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data 775, vece ]
[ldapcheck] ERROR: 4
[ldapcheck] Invalid or insufficient authorization privileges.
Target finished: action-validate-ldap-was-admin-user
| | | |  | | | Cause | The error shown below is similar each time there is an LDAP authentication issue.
"The exception is [LDAP: error code 49 - 80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0Cxxxxxx, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data xxx, vece ]."
However, there are several values that can indicate what LDAP function is causing the issue. Here are some general references for Microsoft Active Directory:
The AD-specific error code is the one after "data" and before "vece" or "v893" in the actual error string returned to the binding process
| 525 | user not found | | 52e | invalid credentials | | 530 | not permitted to logon at this time | | 531 | not permitted to logon at this workstation | | 532 | password expired | | 533 | account disabled | | 701 | account expired | | 773 | user must reset password | | 775 | user account locked |

The DEC: values are not presented in Portal logs; however, review of LDAP activity combined with analysis of SystemOut.log and relevant configuration tasks can help narrow down the root cause. | | | | | Resolving the problem | | Use the codes above to verify the settings and users in LDAP. | | | | |
