VMware Vcenter Orcestrator Configuration Issue - LDAP Connection

[vmtech1]

Hello All,

I have been given the task of setting up Ccenter and I am having a little problem.

I have everything configured except the LDAP connection setup in the vcenter web configuration.

I am receining the following error:

Type	Title	Description
Error	LDAP connection successful but no users found. Please check LDAP paths.	LDAP connection successful but no users found. Please check LDAP paths.
Error	Admin group not found

I have no real LDAP expereince so I am totally lost on this error message.

Can anyone offer any help on this problem?

Thanks - Ron

Here's how I have configured

User lookup base: OU=Users,OU=Organisation,DC=test,DC=com

Group lookup base: OU=Groups,OU=Organisation,DC=test,DC=com

vCO Admin group: CN=VCO_ADMIN,OU=Groups,OU=Organisation,DC=test,DC=com

I assume that you are connecting to active directory.

Here are the configurations that I am using:

User lookup base: OU=Users,OU=Managed Objects,DC=domain,DC=local

Group lookup base: OU=Users,OU=Managed Objects,DC=domain,DC=local

vCO Admin group:CN=vCOAdmins,OU=Administrative Users,OU=Managed Objects,DC=domain,DC=local

Keep in mind that if you are using the default Users object in active directory you need to use CN=Users.

I see those errors there, those mean that your LDAP paths are not correct. What do you have for the rest of your configuration. Make sure that the login that you specified has access to the paths that you are trying to query.

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to thank everyone for their help on this issue.

I had all the LDAP lookup information correct, but I determined that our AD is a little

more complicated than I first thought. The whole turned out to be the root login information.

I had to use the
