I have had this problem on a couple of Portal installs I have done recently. Until now I have always found another LDAP to use but this time I have to get it working so I am hoping its a common issue.

I have WPS 5.0, Windows 2000 sp2
New Install, I installed WAS and HTTP as part of the install (ie Full install)
Install successful with no problems

Configuring portal to use Domino LDAP, Domino version 5.0.12 , LDAP task is loaded and it looks fine through an LDAP browser.

The build file (WPSConfig secure-portal-ldap) completes successfully.
The portal is secured fine. I can log into both WAS and portal with no errors.

The problem is via the Administraton in Portal and then Access and User and Groups I cannot see any users or groups.

In the log file stdout.txt for the portal server I get a time out error

There appears to be nothing else of relevance in any other log file.
It is like the base dn for the search is wrong but I have checked it.

Has anyone struck this before ?
Or does anyone have any idea how to debug such an issue ?
Thanks in advance

You can add this line to your NOTES.INI of your Domino Server to see debug
messages on the Domino server console.
LDAPDEBUG=7

Or you can add this line to send all debug messages to a file.
DEBUG_OUTFILE="C:\LDAPLog.txt"

Restart your Domino server.

If debugging doesn't help, try removing any string that you specified for
the base DN.

So far, I was able to configure the following:
WAS5.0.2 <--> Domino LDAP 6.5 (including SSO [db.nsf <--> Servlet/JSP],
but WebSphere Portal Express V5.0 (WP Ex.5.0) is not installed)
WAS5.0 <--> Domino LDAP 6.5 (including SSO, but WP Ex.5.0 still has
problem retrieving contents for WP Ex.5.0's Admin ID after logging in).

I'm not sure if WP5.0 Ex. is going to work with Domino 6.5 yet. I might
have to downgrade Domino LDAP to Domino 6.0 or 5.x; in this case, I may run
into the same problem you are having.

Good luck,
LTH.

Thanks for the response

FYI, I have successfully configured LDAP with portal using Domino 6.5. The 6.5 Domino ldap seems alot better than previous versions of Domino.

I will try your suggestions and post my solution back here. I have this logged with IBM so lets see what they say.

I got WP Express 5.0 and Domino LDAP 6.5 to work now. SSO is also working
fine, too.
