Hello All, I have the following config:
host samerole +myrole samenet ldap ldapserver="ldap1,ldap2,ldap3" ldapbinddn="mybinddn" ldapbindpasswd="mypass" ldapbasedn="mybase" ldapsearchattribute="myatt" Usually auth works perfectly with LDAP (starting a session from psql using an LDAP connection, authenticating with the LDAP password then exiting straight away) I see this: 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: edb-postgres child[15901]: starting with ( 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: forked new backend, pid=15901 socket=10 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: edb-postgres 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: dccn 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: ) 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: InitPostgres 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: my backend ID is 1 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: StartTransaction 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: name: unnamed; blockState: DEFAULT; state: INPROGR, xid/subid/cid: 0/1/0, nestlvl: 1, children: 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: received password packet 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: CommitTransaction 2013-06-20 15:19:53 EST DEBUG: name: unnamed; blockState: STARTED; state: INPROGR, xid/subid/cid: 0/1/0, nestlvl: 1, children: 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: shmem_exit(0): 7 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: proc_exit(0): 3 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: exit(0) 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: shmem_exit(-1): 0 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: proc_exit(-1): 0 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: reaping dead processes 2013-06-20 15:19:56 EST DEBUG: server process (PID 15901) exited with exit code 0 However around 10% of the time (although this varies) the session hangs after I type in my password till the auth timeout and I see this: 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: forked new backend, pid=15587 socket=10 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: edb-postgres child[15587]: starting with ( 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: edb-postgres 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: dccn 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: ) 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: InitPostgres 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: my backend ID is 1 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: StartTransaction 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: name: unnamed; blockState: DEFAULT; state: INPROGR, xid/subid/cid: 0/1/0, nestlvl: 1, children: 2013-06-20 15:07:46 EST DEBUG: received password packet 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: shmem_exit(1): 7 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: proc_exit(1): 3 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: exit(1) 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: shmem_exit(-1): 0 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: proc_exit(-1): 0 callbacks to make 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: reaping dead processes 2013-06-20 15:08:46 EST DEBUG: server process (PID 15587) exited with exit code 1 Anyone have any ideas? I never see this with MD5. I can multiple quickfire binds from an LDAP application and the same bind DN with no problems.
