Jira LDAP using SSL test user fails

Paul Cope

Using an internal JIRA server v10.3.1#10030001

we are getting errors when trying to enable SSL connection for the LDAP lookups.

The initial connection to the server passes but when you test a user lookup it fails with the following error:

Test basic connection : Succeeded

Test retrieve user : Failed

org.springframework.transaction.CannotCreateTransactionException: Could not create DirContext instance for transaction; nested exception is org.springframework.ldap.CommunicationException: Loading the socket factory; nested exception is javax.naming.CommunicationException: Loading the socket factory [Root exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.atlassian.crowd.directory.ssl.LdapHostnameVerificationSSLSocketFactory not found by com.atlassian.crowd.embedded-crowd-admin-plugin [26]]

Can anyone help please?

Hi @Paul Cope

You're not alone, and the bug was fixed in 10.3.3.

What I dont get is how they class it a a minor bug? How is sending authentication via plain text across the network not a major issue?

Atlassian's definition of severity levels is based on customer impact. I imagine they chose to classify LDAPS being broken as a "minor" incident because a workaround existed (use unencrypted LDAP instead).

Update to the ticket, upgrading from 10.3.1 to 10.3.4 has fixed the issue. We can now use SSL for LDAP.
