Hi there,
On Rocky 8, have followed all the instructions for CentOS 8 but when I try to navigate to the server it seems not to know where to go. Is there something I have to do to “enable” the OOD config?
Thanks.
Hello!
There shouldn’t be anything that you need to set or “enable”. The configs need to be in the /etc/ood/config location and have permissions set correctly in order to work at the most basic level.
After making your changes to the ood_portal.yml did you issue sudo /opt/ood/ood-portal-generator/sbin/update_ood_portal to generate the apache config?
When you say the server doesn’t know where to go, do you mean when you try to hit the web-node for login that you never hit the auth page or any page at all? I just want to make sure I am understanding where the routing problem is happening.
Is it possible to see the ood_portal.yml?
Yep.
Yes, exactly.
Sure:

Thanks for all the info. Can I see the actual URL you are hitting as well to see what port you are hitting?
It is https://server.domain.tld/.
I think https may be the problem since no ssl looks to be setup. What is the behavior if you do:
http://server.domain.tld/:80
It redirects to https.
Uncomment and add the following to the ood_portal.yml:
listen_addr_port: 8080
port: 8080
Issue the sudo /opt/ood/ood-portal-generator/sbin/update_ood_portal command and restarts of services as needed and then hit:
http://server.domain.tld/:8080
and see if that gets you to a login.

So that got me a LOT further. (Although I’m still not quite sure how to make https work.)
Now when I log in I get this:
That is the correct gid for me in AD. (NB: it is pre-populated with uidNumber and gidNumber.) We are using realmd/SSSD to join machines like this one to the domain and I get a similar error at the command line when I log in – but I’m not using PAM or anything to authenticate, just the standard LDAP lookup with Dex. How can I figure out what’s going on here?
To get the https portion working you would need to add the needed paths to the certs under the ssl portion of the ood_portal.yml since right now they are commented out (going off the previuosly posted config).
You will also need to make sure to set listen_addr_port and port to 443 to listen on that port instead of the 8080 we set previously to get you to a login over http. Apply the update and that should get https to work.
For the LDAP issue I’m not quite sure what is happening, but something is not right at the SSSD layer. It doesn’t look like anything is wrong in the Dex portion of the config though.
@tdockendorf do you have any insight into this issue with realmd/SSSD?
The fact you get the error can't find group for leads me to believe group looks are broken with how you have SSSD setup. If you log into the OnDemand web node you should be able to do id $USERNAME so if you logged into Dex with foobar run id foobar and you should be populated with both user name, UID and group memberships with their GIDs. If you don’t have group names populated and just GIDs then you likely have some issue with either /etc/nsswitch.conf not doing group lookups through SSSD or you have SSSD not correctly pulling down group information. I personally don’t have much experience with SSSD and AD, I’ve only ever connected SSSD to either OpenLDAP or 389DS.
so I think I know what the problem is, but don’t know how to fix it.
In this environment, AD provides uidNumber and gidNumber attributes which are provided to SSSD for association with users. but while the uidNumbers are real, there literally are no groups that match the gidNumbers. they’re actually set to be the same, but no group is created in AD to accompany the number. does anyone know if you can filter that gidNumber attribute out so that OOD stops choking on it?
(or, I guess, create local groups that match the received gidNumber?)
auto_private_groups = true in the [domain/{NETBIOS DOMAIN NAME}] section does the trick for creating local groups that match!
This is all set, so will open a new topic for a different problem, because of course one popped up.
