[OpenXPKI-users] How to use attributes in LDAP as OpenXPKI user attributes

[HAN X. <ha...@ih...>]

Dear Developer,




I encountered an issue while configuring OpenXPKI: 

I’m unable to use user attributes from LDAP as user properties in presets or in other parts of the workflow.




In detail, my LDAP connection is working and I can log in normally. The configuration is as follows:




--stack.yaml--


LDAPAuth:

    label: LDAP Auth

    description: Login with LDAP

    handler: LDAPAuth

    type: passwd



--handler.yaml--
LDAPAuth:

    type: Connector

    label: LDAP Login for Users

    role: User

    source@: connector:auth.connector.userLDAP




    attributes:

        userinfo.email@: "param:email"

        userinfo.gname@: "param:firstName"

        userinfo.name@: "param:lastName"




--connector.yaml--

userLDAP:

    class: Connector::Builtin::Authentication::LDAP

    LOCATION: ldap://xxx.xxx.xx.xx

    base: ou=users,dc=xxxx,dc=xx,dc=xx

    binddn: cn=xxxx,ou=users,dc=xxxx,dc=xx,dc=xx

    password: xxxx

    debug: 1

    verify: none

    filter: "(email=[% LOGIN %])"







    attrs:

        - email

        - firstName

        - lastName










The LDAP contains the following information that I need:




email: ha...@ih...

lastName: Han

firstName: Xiao

sex: male

sn: hanx14

afs: hanx




But I don't know how to use it in realm/realm_name/profile/template/ 

I just do some simple test, like 




--requestor_gname.yaml--

id: requestor_gname

label: I18N_OPENXPKI_UI_PROFILE_REQUESTOR_REALNAME

description: I18N_OPENXPKI_UI_PROFILE_REQUESTOR_REALNAME_DESC

type: static

width: 40

placeholder: John Doe

preset: userinfo.gname

required: 0




However, in the web UI it shows as <not set>.




Additionally, there are a large number of errors in /var/log/openxpki-server/catchall.log and openxpki.log:

2025/11/27 00:09:01 FATAL OpenXPKI::Service::Default->init() failed: I18N_OPENXPKI_TRANSPORT_SIMPLE_CLIENT_READ_CLOSED_CONNECTION [pid=370|sid=OHJK]

2025/11/27 00:09:01 openxpki.system.FATAL OpenXPKI::Service::Default->init() failed: I18N_OPENXPKI_TRANSPORT_SIMPLE_CLIENT_READ_CLOSED_CONNECTION [pid=370|sid=OHJK]




I’m not sure if these are related to the issue.




I look forward to your help. Thank you!




Best regards,

Xiao HAN
