[rabbitmq-discuss] LDAP SSL Configuration

Wed May 14 20:27:05 BST 2014

I have now added ssl_options to my configuration:
{ssl_options,           [{certfile, "/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.pub"},
                               {keyfile, "/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.key"}
                              ]},

I believe this worked because I'm now getting a different error:

{exit,{ssl_options_requires_min_r16a}

I looked this up and it appears to be a version check. If I can read the code correctly it checks for version "5.10" which correlates to OTP release "R16A". I have version "5.9.2" installed which correlates to OTP release "R15B02". Clearly I have an older version than the SSL options support. Is this correct?

Still just getting: LDAP connect error: {error,"connect failed"} Changing to {log, network} did not give me any more information.
I'm now going to assume that our LDAP server does not accept clients without certificates.

I believe that simple configuration should be able to work assuming your LDAP server accepts clients without certificates.

If you change {log, true} to {log, network} then you should get better diagnostics on failed connections.
