Problem Description:


When Infoworks authentication is configured through LDAP authentication the time taken for user to login is more than a minute.


Root Cause:


LDAP referrals search slows down because of referrals in the LDAP result which in turn increases the socket connections.



Solution:


Edit the file: /opt/infoworks/platform/conf/security.ini
Under the [main] section, add the below line:
contextFactory.environment[java.naming.referral] = ignore

Post this, restart platform serviceĀ 


cd /opt/ infoworks/bin
source env.sh
./stop.sh platform
./start.sh platform


Applicable versions:

IWX 3.X,4.X
