05/23/2025, 5:37 AMI am trying to get lldap setup. I am using docker-compose and my reverse proxy is caddy. But I can't seem to be able to login. I have tried deleting the users.db but that didn't work. Can I share my compose file and config file here or should just open an issue on github?

05/23/2025, 6:25 AMalso I use caddy as the reverse proxy if that matters for some reason here is the config
Copy code
users.in.com {
reverse_proxy lldap:17170
}n

05/23/2025, 6:51 AMYou can try restarting with force_ldap_user_pass_reset set to true
nitnelave
05/23/2025, 6:51 AMThat will reset the admin password to the one in the config

05/23/2025, 7:05 AMI have tried that also my compose file. Is
LLDAP_LDAP_USER_DN Copy code
lldap:
image: lldap/lldap:2025-05-19
container_name: lldap
environment:
- LLDAP_LDAP_USER_DN=dc=users,dc=in,dc=com
- TZ=America/Denver

05/23/2025, 7:07 AMOh, right, LLDAP_LDAP_USER_DN is the (somewhat misnamed) uid of the admin user
nitnelave
05/23/2025, 7:07 AMIt should be "admin" or "bob" or similar
nitnelave
05/23/2025, 7:07 AMThat's what you log in with

05/23/2025, 7:26 AMso I commented out the env in the compose file and just did this in the config
ldap_user_dn = "admin"
