Hi everyone, I have setup LLDAP for my homelab, and I've already configured mealie to work with it. But I can't make Jellyfin work it. I've tried this guide : https://github.com/lldap/lldap/blob/main/example_configs/jellyfin.md I've read this thread : https://discord.com/channels/898492935446876200/1108731875645730886 But nothing seems to work for me. I set up jellyfin_users and jellyfin_admin groups and my config follow the first guide. When I click on “Save and Test LDAP Server Settings” I got

Connect: Connect Error

(as in the pic) And the logs say that :

[16:15:24] [WRN] [124] Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin: Ldap Test Failed to Connect or Bind to server

Do you guys have any idea ? Thank you a lot !

Here's a brand new thread for you! Please keep the discussion for this problem in this thread.

Hello! I would double check the host name, and check that it's accessible from the jellyfin container. The error is in the DNS, it can't find the host.

Thanks ! I double-checked the host name, it's not this… I've

docker exec -it jellyfin /bin/bash

and then

ldapsearch -x -b "dc=mydomain,dc=fr" -H ldap://lldap.mydomain.fr

and I got

ldap_bind: Naming violation (64) Missing DN value

. So I guess I can access my LLDAP from the Jellyfin container, can't I? 🤷‍♂️

Sounds like it. Are they in the same network?

I didn't use docker network, so I would say yes...

I'm still getting reacquainted with LDAP, but I'm pretty sure your bind should be

uid=<bindUser>,ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=fr

rather than just

-b "dc=mydomain,dc=fr"

-see if that fixes it?
