PROBLEMS WHEN LINKING LDAP about superset HOT 1 OPEN

To address the LDAP connection issue in Superset, ensure the following:

1. python-ldap Installation: Confirm python-ldap is installed in your environment, as it's required for LDAP authentication.

2. LDAP Configuration: Double-check your superset_config.py for correct LDAP settings according to Flask App Builder documentation. This includes server details, user bind configuration, and search options.

3. Role Mapping: Verify AUTH_ROLES_MAPPING in superset_config.py for accurate LDAP group to Superset role mappings, if applicable.

4. Role Sync: If AUTH_ROLES_SYNC_AT_LOGIN is enabled, ensure LDAP group to role mappings are syncing correctly at login.

5. Debugging: Increase logging level in Superset to capture detailed LDAP-related errors, which can provide insights into configuration or connectivity issues.

6. Package Compatibility: Check that your python-ldap package version is compatible with Superset 4.0.0, which recommends version >=3.4.4.

7. Network and Firewall: Ensure no network or firewall settings are blocking connections to the LDAP server.

8. LDAP Server Settings: Review the LDAP server configuration for correct base DN, user DN, and search filters.

If the issue persists after these checks, consider reviewing discussions and issues in the Superset repository related to LDAP authentication for additional insights and potential solutions.
