SSO with nginx issue

[George Louka]

Hello,

I have just configured piler with the OVA image with LDAP authentication but I am facing issues with SSO. It seems that not all commands can work from your SSO Guide.

How can I troubleshoot that? Are there any issues with nginx that cause that?

Thank you!

The docs describes SSO auth based on apache. It has a nice module mod_auth_ntlm_winbind which does the trick using winbindd from the samba project. To make SSO work with nginx, you need such a module which does the same (or perhaps another nginx feature/module using a different stuff for SSO). Currently I'm unaware of such a feature. If you have some time to figure out how to make SSO work for nginx, it would help the piler project considerably.

Is there any quick guide how to switch from nginx to apache2 from the OVA image?

[Janos SUTO]

It's fairly straigtforward: apt-get remove nginx; apt-get install apache2. Find an example virtualhost config below:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName piler.yourdomain.com

    DocumentRoot "/var/www/piler.yourdomain.com"

    <Directory /var/www/piler.yourdomain.com>
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all

       AllowOverride all
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog "/var/log/apache2/piler.yourdomain.com-error_log"
    CustomLog "/var/log/apach2/piler.yourdomain.com-access_log" common
</VirtualHost>
