[Starlingx-discuss] Invalid password for ldapadmin user during simplex installation

[Dale, Kristal]

Hi Martin,

Where did you find the link to these instructions? (https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StarlingX/Installation_Guide_Virtual_Environment/Simplex)
I wasn’t able to find a direct link from the wiki… Did you find this via search?

The latest instructions (R3) for a virtual Simplex installation are on the documentation site: https://docs.starlingx.io/deploy_install_guides/r3_release/virtual/aio_simplex.html

If there is an older set of instructions floating around, we’d like to find them and correctly deprecate them to avoid confusion in the future!

Thanks,
Kris (STX docs team)

Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] Invalid password for ldapadmin user during simplex installation

Good day all,

I’m trying to install a Simplex server following the instructions provided in https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StarlingX/Installation_Guide_Virtual_Environment/Simplex - The base system is CentOS 7.7.

I’ve got the basic Simplex VM created, up and running, it’s when I run the Ansible scripts that it fails and logs the error:

2020-01-30T16:19:48.122 Error: 2020-01-30 16:19:48 +0000 ldapadd -D cn=ldapadmin,dc=cgcs,dc=local -w f62083c68b43Ti0* -f /etc/openldap/initial_config.ldif returned 49 instead of one of [0]
2020-01-30T16:19:48.258 Error: 2020-01-30 16:19:48 +0000 /Stage[main]/Platform::Ldap::Bootstrap/Exec[populate initial ldap configuration]/returns: change from notrun to 0 failed: ldapadd -D cn=ldapadmin,dc=cgcs,dc=local -w f62083c68b43Ti0* -f /etc/openldap/initial_config.ldif returned 49 instead of one of [0]
2020-01-30T16:21:54.301 Error: 2020-01-30 16:21:54 +0000 /Stage[main]/Platform::Drbd::Etcd::Bootstrap/Platform::Drbd::Filesystem[drbd-etcd]/Drbd::Resource[drbd-etcd]/Drbd::Resource::Enable[drbd-etcd]/Drbd::Resource::Up[drbd-etcd]/Mount[/opt/etcd]: Could not evaluate: Execution of '/usr/bin/mount /opt/etcd' returned 32: mount: /dev/drbd7 is write-protected, mounting read-only

When I run the ldapadd command myself it fails with:
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

I’ve not configured any ldap password anywhere so I guess that the ldapadmin password is auto-generated, but the fact that it’s not working is cause for concern.

I’ve looked through the log file for any clues but everything prior to the above command has worked fine no errors or warnings.

I am at a loss, any pointers would be appreciated.
