Web SSO - v802

smmellac over 5 years ago

Trying to test SSO connectivity after upgrading to v8.0.2. Made the following changes

- Authn module - Active directory user account (role based)

- Updated the QER\WebPortal\BaseURL

Below is the error i see in the logs

2018-12-11 09:45:41.2555 INFO ( WebLog gfbbddew5mfu1vshzf4no0an) : Module instance created: VI_Session

2018-12-11 09:45:41.2711 INFO ( WebLog gfbbddew5mfu1vshzf4no0an) : Session gfbbddew5mfu1vshzf4no0an started

2018-12-11 09:45:41.2711 INFO ( WebLog gfbbddew5mfu1vshzf4no0an) : Authenticating session using RoleBasedADSAccount

2018-12-11 09:45:42.3024 WARN ( WebLog gfbbddew5mfu1vshzf4no0an) : System.Exception: Single-sign-on failed, URL was /IdentityManager/ ---> System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> VI.Base.ViException: Failed to authenticate user. ---> VI.Base.ViException: The current user could not be determined.

Checked F5 logs as well and it seems like the servers are not even attempting to hit F5 configured URL

Please advise

Did you try to turn off basic authentication? So, only Windows Authentication is enabled.

Did you check the IIS logs to see what user is trying to access the IdentityManager URL?

Are you using a direct database connection in the web portal or an Application Server connection?

Turning off basic auth did not help. We are going through the appserver not directly to the DB. Is there a way to remove configured appserver in webportal (other than uninstalling appserver) to try if SSO works without going through appserver?

WebDesigner.ConfigFileEditor is the place to change this see screen shot below:

Are you clicking on Enter new connection under the Connection section? It sounds like your trying to update the Search service.

Even from enter new connection when i click on APpServer it's asking me to put a URL. If i have a null value, it's not getting updated

We would like you to use a SQL connection instead of using Application Server. Please choose SQL Server and complete the connection details. Once completed please test to see if the site now works with SSO

Is the server a domain member?

Did you check the IIS log (not the one from the Web Portal) to check if the request contains Windows credentials?
